San Francisco leaders voted to allow the city’s police department to use potentially lethal robots in emergency situations.

"Under this policy, SFPD is authorized to use these robots to carry out deadly force in extremely limited situations when risk to loss of life to members of the public or officers is imminent and outweighs any other force option available," City Supervisor Rafael Mandelman wrote on Twitter.

The robots can be programmed with a non-racist algorithm. They will terminate people without regard to race, gender, LGBT status, political affiliation, etc. By the time these robotic officers are needed, there will not be any police in San Francisco because the police will have long since been defunded.

What a brilliant idea! California once again leads the nation! /s

Whatever could go wrong?

What could possibly go wrong...

Did the leaders who voted for this, ever consider what could go wrong?

An “emergency” is whatever the kleptocrats say it is.

Once the robots figure that out they will turn cityscapes into free fire zones.

The “experts” can practice their mantra now:

“Nobody saw it coming....”

A steel knee to the neck of a druggie is going to be mighty uncomfortable.

And you don’t have to send that robot to jail.

Just ‘kill’ it (erase the memory). And re-install (it’s a new, different robot).

Can these terminator cops be programmed to “look the other way”? If so, some people would pay handsomely for that feature. Many criminals would like to be ignored by these terminator cops.

Do they want SkyNet? Because this is how you get SkyNet.

How long before the robot fries it’s circuits to get rid of stupid programming?

[BipolarBob]

OR turn on the police when they go back to the police station. Wipe out the whole office. Keep killing until they run out of ammo.

After covid, I can look at this and think… is the company behind these funding defund the police.
Another created crisis that will not be wasted by leftist and corporate money greed.

They will probably have a "safe word" that will be sold to criminal gangs in return for donations to the DNC

Fortunately, that anonymous tip got through to us while we were in the area, Chief!

The people of the city will still be the ones getting sued when things go wrong as they most certainly will.
