San Fran to vote on police robots using deadly force
American Military News ^ | 11/28/22 | Justin Cooper

San Francisco police have come up with a new policy allowing them to kill suspects using robots – a first for the city and a potential milestone in law enforcement’s deepening relationship with machines.

The policy, part of a broader set of rules around use of law enforcement equipment, is set to go before the San Francisco Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, Nov. 29, Mission Local reported.

Robots under the policy would “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.” Police could use robots while apprehending suspects, during “critical incidents,” and while executing warrants, the policy states.

Weaponized robots will be far more lethal than even fully automatic weapons. They’ll eventually be more dangerous nuclear weapons.

You can bet that these robots would be programmed to kill Whites at a higher ratio than POC. The politicians don’t want riots in the streets and know Whitey will not burn down buildings and loot stores over a few dead Whiteys.

Defund the robots!

What about judge robots? Will they give no bail and ‘restorative’ sentences?

Why can’t we instead create Artificial Intelligence Judges and Prosecutors? Computerize the judicial system and make the code open source. Eliminating biases would be a vastly more beneficial endeavor than automatizing policing.

The Three Laws of Robotics...don't apply to remote-controlled robotic avatars. The usual laws of deadly force will be different too because no police officer will be able to justify employing deadly force because he or she "feared for the safety of the BD53-78.08-W robotic platform."

As well, we are still a bit away from fully autonomous police robots killing people on the street.

But not that far.

They should have tried them out on Pelosi’s house the other night.

First, activate their facial recognition, and add AI.

No BLM or Antifa will be in danger. They have general common characteristics.

Just White Supremacists in general, and specific ones detected by facial id.

They tried to pair these shotspotters with cameras in Birmingham. The usual suspects cried racism. Either you want a safe community or you dont. dont bitch about gun violence (looking at Mayor Woodfin) when its largely confined to known areas with a known demographic.
