Amazon’s bring the air drones to Detroit no less, you can’t steal what you can catch. You set it up to only drop in a locked back yard or when the person is outside and under it.

It would be super easy to put 50,000-150,000 volts of say 1000hz of positive potential to the frame and shell of that bot.

Do you keep that sort of power pack on your belt? How is that "super easy"? How much current will it be able to deliver at those voltages?
