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.

Just make sure that, depending on the race of the perp, you send the right robot out, to avoid "robot racism" charges.

As they say if you don’t like being arrested for committing crimes then stop committing crimes.

All of us have gotten used to knowing when we go into a store we are on camera (plus outside in the parking lot). We don’t like it but it caused us to stop filling a shopping cart with big trash bags of jewelry, electronic devices and other goodies and running out the front doors.

I’d be concerned with how hackable they might be?

Assuming the tech works perfectly every time, and the evil YTs don’t get smart and learn to ape the dress and behavior the AI is programmed to skip. A medical mask and sunglasses could also confound them.

Profiling suspect. Suspect is white. Can’t see her hands. She is in forbidden zone of Capitol. Shoot to kill. Shoot to kill.

About the same.

Such as enforcing mask mandates, preventing unauthorized church attendance, suspicion of not voting for democrats, etc.

Yep. And not one peep of outrage around here.
F-—er already gunned down 5 cops - the dude that came up with the idea of using the bomb squad robot to pop the rabid dog got the props he deserved. No city council whining needed.

ALL OF THESE DIMOCOMMUNISTS ARE ROBUTS!!! None of them have a heart nor brain. They just do as their Minders tell them to do. I don’t know many folks around here that are Dimocommies. Our voting place is 99% republican. I have NO known dimocommie friends.

What you have pictured there is a Knightscope robot, basically just used as a mobile surveillance device. Not even remotely what is being referred to in this article. These move very slowly and sometimes they will fall over or get tipped over by youths.

I suppose they’ll change the law to redefine murder as well. Otherwise dispatching them will only be property damage.
