Unmanned drones are now being marketed to our police departments - ones that can be outfitted with shotguns and GRENADE LAUNCHERS. Man: Raise your hand if you're excited. You can sort of see the appeal of having robot death planes enforce the law... Non-Union No Pension ...And in the event of police brutality, there's no one to not fire. Drone: I AM OCCUCOP! At least the STOP AND FRISK BOT won't racially profile people. Frisked Man: In fact, it's VERY INDISCRIMINATE!

Police using robots in bomb disposal, good idea. Police using drones for “spying” (without warrants no less) bad idea, propagated by those “pro-freedom” RIGHT WINGERS! Folks need to take a closer look at what kind of government “Big Brother” really represented.

Like the guy from OCP telling Robocop, “You’re just product.” Now you belong to OCP, so shut up and do you job we aren’t going to pay you for.

Isn’t it, though? I may have put them there, but it is the so-called “law enforcement officials” themselves who have earned those quotes by the idea of buying drones — yes, heavily armed drones — to hover over American cities to spy on and attack Americans anonymously.
