Because that is much more efficient than just simply having GUN CONTROL! Why not give every school an APV AND TANKS?!
Why address the underlying issues when we can sell weapons to all sides? The only things we make where in America are weapons and fossil fuels. There's money to be made!
Americans are dumb cunts.
How does one even come up with this idea?
How do we keep kids safe when something happens in a school?
Wait wair, first. How do we keep us safe when something happens in a school?
How??? Like who in their right mind would greenlight this?
Same reason the UK has the Online Safety Act: People who don't know shit about fuck being convinced by people who do know shit about fuck but want to make money from them being sold a big shiny solution that they are convinced will work.
See, Florida is in america and you wouldn't believe who the big brain behind that shitshow is.
Yeah this will go swimmingly. Especially if you’re the supplier of drones to the schools.
These will be purchased, sit in a cabinet and never be charged or maintained. When they are “needed”, no one will know how to operate them or what they can do.
This is a waste of money from the hit git go.
They just need more school shootings, so these things get proper use.
I give it 6 months before some kid asks ChatGPT to help him hijack these drones instead of bringing a gun of his own. He’ll murder his classmates with irony.
Can the armed drone open classroom doors better than Uvalde police officers?
The only thing to prevent school shooting seems to be more guns, AND more automated guns. Somehow.
It's not guns that are the problem, it's bullets, just ban selling bullets, let everyone keep there guns, problem will sort itself in a year or 2
HAAACCCKKKKS
How long until someone hacks a drone and uses it to commit a school shooting?
Or some situation arises where innocent students are the target
"You see, your kids died, but at least it was only your kids, and not anyone else. They probably would have died from the shooting anyways lmao"
Or when they start using the drones as truancy officers as a cost cutting measure …
"Truancy is at an all time low" report various government instances. Oddly enough child sized coffins sales at an all time high, experts call it an "odd coincidence" more at 5.
How long until someone creates a plausibly convincing fake of these drones and uses them to perform a false flag or massacre with no chance of culpability?
Oh I guess that would be easier
On it
How can you read a proposal like this and not immediately go "Nope. That's it. We went too far. We lost. Let's circle back and start this entire society again from scratch"?
As a teacher, my first question to admin would be "so what do we do when a group of 15 year old boys get it and start flying it around the neighborhood"?
Fucking stupidest idea I ever seen.
The US has more guns than its total population. Real GUN CONTROL is needed.
The number of guns will be increased again to handle the problems caused by the increased number of guns.
If only there were some easily identifiable common denominator…
An American solution to an American problem.
We'll find out how successful the system is soon enough.
Yikes.
Florida once again forgets that Black Mirror is a cautionary tale.
Soon they will reveal their latest invention, the Torment Nexus, from the hit Sci Fi novel, Don't Create the Torment Nexus.
I predict this will end in complete success.
We shall define "success" later.
Can't be any school shootings if there isn't either school or children in them. Success.
They will decide they don't really want to do it after all. After millions has been given to various companies and contractors.
Sounds like a definition of success to me.
And when one of these Drones KILLS INNOCENT CHILDREN we can get Drones for our Drones to Protect our Kids from our Drones we Put in Their SCHOOLS!
You are now moderator of the Drone Marketing Association sub.
the only way to stop a bad drone with a gun is….
The best solution to prevent school shootings is to have a good social network.
What a shithole country.
Me watching T2 as a kid: this will never happen.
Me now: oh
As long as the drones are fully autonomous but still use WiFi with the factory default password, it should be OK.
Don't forget, that the password is written on the bottom, so its visible when they fly above you
I'm starting to feel like I'm living the prequel to Cyberpunk 2077...
You better start believing in cyberpunk dystopias, Miss Turner. You're in one!
This seems like a stupendously bad idea on its face. Haven’t they heard of Murphy’s Law?
What could possibly go wrong 🤦🏻♂️
