From Weasel Zippers
“San
Francisco authorities proposed a new ‘dystopian’ policy heading for approval
next week that would license department robots to kill suspects who threaten
the lives of citizens and police officers in the crime-ridden city.
“San
Francisco Police Department (SFPD) drafted the blueprint for officers to use
its military-style weapons, which includes 17 remote-controlled robots
available in its inventory that are typically used for defusing bombs or
surveilling areas too difficult for authorities to access.
“’Robots
will only be used as a deadly force option when risk of loss of life to members
of the public or officers is imminent and outweighs any other force option
available to SFPD,’ the policy reads.”
Was a time
Hollywood envisioned killer po-leece robots as tools of vast right-wing
conspiracy keep POCs in their place companies. Now, we have one of the most
liberal Progressive queer-friendly cities in the country advocating metal
killers. “Danger, Will Robinson! Danger! Danger!”
