    Beginning to normalize armed drones starting in schools. All part of the police state agenda. Do not fear citizen, we see everything.

      Schools were scary enough when they had a permanent paramilitary occupation (police) now it’s going to be downright dangerous to go to one of those prisons

    In 5 years we can automate school shootings and put real shooters out of a job.

      Exactly this! My son tried to print a picture of a fire alarm from his school Chromebook and some how sent the print job to every single printer in the building. The IT department had absolutely no idea how he was able to do it, because only teachers are supposed to be able to connect to the printers. Now imagine that with drones filled with pepper spray.

        That’s probably the point. If they do a walk out for Palestine or something you send in the drones to attack them. Blame it on a computer glitch and if all else fails blame it on woke. They’re banning phones at school so that no one will be able to record footage of it happening and so that they can make the school security camera footage just disappear

        When I was in school is was not uncommon for some asshole to mace a hallway right before class was dismissed. Really it would just be carrying on a long standing tradition.

        ☝🏻 Modern NBC Honeywell filters aren’t cheap. I know, I looked into modifying a surplus skin tight Russian one, first term Trump. If I survived a nuclear blast I’d still hope to be able to breathe was the point.

        Either way, it gets costly because once you open that filter, you better be ready to use it, kind of thing, meaning they start to degrade once you open one. So, it’s not the masks really that get ya, it’s the price of the filters.

      Didn’t you read the article? Clearly they are…they had some self-control, and fitted the drones with less-lethals instead.

      You want them to strap it with an AR or something?

      It’s not going to get used at all. They’ll sit in their pods, collecting dust and by the time they get activated, if ever, the batteries will be dead, the control software will have bad update or version mismatch, or the nozzles will be clogged.

        (I’m not a US citizen; I believe guns should be controlled and there’s no reason for a citizen to own a gun)

        Don’t US school run shooter exercises? Darwin, even here in the UK where I live, the secondary school (12-16) ran twice yearly active shooter exercises - although they called them something else, like “lockdown exercise” and we’ve only ever had one school shooting (1996).

        My point being that surely any exercise would train the whole response system, including pepper spray drones (still can’t quite believe I’m typing this - anything to avoid actual gun control, I guess)?

        It’ll require a sideloaded android app and they’ll have to wait 24 hours to use it.

    Fucking LOL.

    Let’s make school shootings even more confusing by making sure both victims and shooter(s) are all grouped together on the ground screaming about the waeaponized capsacin in their eyes.

    Cops in Texas are going to have to explain why they mowed down multiple innocents simply because they couldn’t figure out who the shooter was in a sea of kids screaming about getting pepper sprayed after almost getting shot.

    This will not end well. It will end with more dead kids not less.
