They should make a law forbidding the manufacturing or importation of killer robots.

Isaac Asimov already spelled those laws out!

And now it's up to President Trump to confirm them.

Only our Congress can make Law.
President just has to agree.

We all hope some lower judge
doesn’t Fu$k up a wet dream.

On March 20, Democrat U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett's group, "Takedown Tesla," announced a nationwide "Day of Action" on March 29 (in honor of Crockett's birthday), with violent "protests" planned at all Tesla dealerships throughout the U.S., as well as Tesla dealerships around the world.

Not even one Democrat politician in America has denounced the violent "Takedown Tesla" movement -- instead, Democrat politicians excitedly promote it. The ongoing "Takedown Tesla" "protests" have been extremely violent, so it's widely expected the criminal Democrats' nationwide March 29 "Takedown Tesla" attack will be equally (or far more) violent. Criminal Democrats and the equally criminal Democrat Party are brazenly influencing people around the world to join their effort to destroy the American company Tesla and "take down" Elon Musk.

On the "Takedown Tesla" website, the deranged Democrat organizers ridiculously claim that "Elon Musk is destroying our democracy ..." (That's meant to agitate & rile up all their violent Dumb Democrat kamaLa-voter lemmings.)

So it's not just some left-wing "radicals" as The Federalist puts it; it's the entire Soros-funded Democrat Party, starting at the top, including U.S. Congressional Democrats.

Dumb Democrats say their sole mission is to destroy and "Takedown Tesla" and Elon Musk, but everyone knows the Deranged Democrats ultimate goal is to take down President Trump and the entire Trump Administration.

Some Democrats have said if President Trump immediately fires DOGE Musk, then the deranged Democrats will stop their nationwide Democrat violence.

And other Democrats have said they'll stop their Democrat violence across the country if President Trump is impeached and removed from office.

From someone on X:
"Trump must set up an emergency fund to triple-reimburse victims of Domestic Terrorism intended to stop government reform, including the Tesla attacks. This turns terrorism into a financial boomerang. Attack DOGE, and you only make them stronger."
Congress could vote on a measure like this. It would show which Democrats support terror.

During Trump's first term, the Democrat Party-sponsored violent BLM/Antifa wild thug mob riot organization violently rioted across the nation for most of the 2020 election year.

Now, during Trump's second term, the Democrat Party-sponsored violent "Takedown Tesla" wild thug mob riot organization is violently attacking Tesla dealerships across the nation. U.S. Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) said she's honored that so many Democrat lemmings will be wildly "protesting" all Tesla dealerships throughout the United States as part of the Democrat Party-sponsored nationwide "Takedown Tesla" attack on March 29 in honor of Crockett's birthday. Her "Takedown Tesla" organization is also encouraging people globally to join anti-Trump Democrats in targeting the American company Tesla and all its dealerships around the world.

Isaac Asimov already spelled those laws out!

And laws are made to be broken. Really, how hard would it be for an AI mind millions of times smarter than humans to figure out reprogramming itself?

Back in the 1970's, I bought microcomputers that had pre-programmed read-only boot and cpu control chips. It didn't take me long to alter the motherboard to accept EEPROM chips with my own programming.

I suspect it won't take long to defeat any attempt to have robot "obey" laws.

If anyone has access to the original audio, please provide text of the audio that is missing from 36:10 to 36:22.

Track here (audio stops with Elon saying "was a space video game called 'Blastar'" and begins with Ted saying "and you've managed ... everything you've touched has been a success").

The missing audio is on another version here: https://youtu.be/xKxgaxAVDfM?si=7xPctlTEp7emwAHk&t=316

Rough transcript:
Ted: When you were 10, did you look up and say, "I'm going to mars"?
Elon: No. [laugh] No, I read a lot of science fiction books and programed computers, but the first -- funny enough -- the first video game that I sold was a space video game called Blastar. Maybe that's [borne its way.] [laugh]
Ted: How do become Elon Musk? Look, You're obviously smart as hell, but there are ...
Elon: Forgiven.
Ted: ... there are a lot of smart people that don't do Squat and you've managed-- everything you've touched has been an extraordinary success.

Where I have "borne its way" above, it might be "borne its weight."
