there are israels everywhere for those with eyes to see
(to the tune of John Brown’s Body)
Kids bringing guns to school to protect themselves from the drones that are protecting them from the guns
Kings bringing laser pointers to be based.
As a father, you ask me what am I willing to give up in my child's school, for protection? Everything.
yeah okay cool
Except better gun control laws. Not those.
I’m torn on this one. On the one hand I’d love to have sensible gun control laws in place that help prevent guns from getting into the hands of kids.
On the other hand, guns may be our only recourse against Fascism.
Fascism is upon you now. What are you waiting for?
This except in the mind of amerikkkans the fascism is universal healthcare
what does it attack with? because I can only think it would be an explosive. might as well just keep some grenades around in the teacher's lounge
Video shows pepper rounds and "direct impact" which is literally just dive bombing the drone into the target.
Maybe I'm underestimating the incredible power of the modern camera drone, but wouldn't getting dive bombed by one be the equivalent of someone throwing a plastic toy at you?
I mean, it wouldn't feel great? I assume dive bombing is only an option after the pepper munitions are used up. But yeah, its not really going to end the threat. A delay at best. Which is also what the people selling this were careful to note: about how this is just to get LEO more time to get on scene.
the cops proceed to send in more drones until the shooter runs out of ammo
Comrade you know we have the lathe around these parts, please do not post like that in the vicinity.

It would probably destroy the drone, which means more sales for the drone company!
They might’ve watched one too many Ukraine combat vids
Well the DJI FPV weighs 795 grams and has a top speed if 87 MPH. That means its impact energy could be as much as 443 ft/lbs upon impact. For reference, a 9mm gun firing a 115 grain (not gram) projectile at 1180 fps generates about 356 ft/lbs of energy and that's just at the muzzle. Bullets are traveling slower the farther they travel where as a drone could be accelerating upon impact.
Yes, drones can be very dangerous.
Though that 443 ft/lbs is also spread out over a much larger area than a bullet, and unless the shooter is outside, they won't really have the space to get anywhere close to their maximum speed.
I feel like if drones were really this deadly, we'd hear a lot more about people using them as weapons, because it sounds much better (and quite possibly cheaper) than using a gun to kill someone.
they do use them, as weapons they just make them explode at the end too.
"ugh, no! that's it! I'm no longer going to school shoot! you're all meanies!"
Stopping school shooters by releasing of a flesh shredding cloud of manhacks.
POV of an American student in 2027
Don't worry, the drones will wait outside the school just like the cops
How long until they are used to police students?
I just watched a video on DARE and how it was a ploy to get more police in schools and make students into snitches
I watched that video yesterday as well.
We homeschooled during COVID, and after that video I’m seriously tinkering with the idea of doing it again. It was a huge strain on my work schedule, but the kids thrived during that time and never did better in terms of their academic achievement. But, since they’re older now, it would be very hard on them in terms of their socialization and all that.
Public schools have turned into a weird mini police state, wherein some normal kid shenanigans - that should be handled by school administrators, by means of detentions and in-school suspensions - are now being handled by resource officers and the juvenile legal system. It’s madness and I hate it.
I think maybe what we really need to do is get tf out of America.
The operators are already doing that.
Now how long until they are used to suppress student protests?
I give it 6 months
Fuck this "Class of 1999" ass, "Torment Nexus" ass future.
At least the Class of 1999 robots pretended to be helpful
Ahem.
Learn to hack, learn to quadcopter/drone.
How about some books, maybe?
Damn, out-onioned again
I remember joking many years ago about how every school needed predator drones that would fire on anyone who looked angry or upset.
Yea satire is dead, how do you beat reality? School Resource Officers being replaced with School Tactical Response Teams? School buses being replaced with mraps? Hallway monitors being replaced with deputized student-snipers in overwatch positions?
Oh no our drones are getting hacked constantly and harassing black children regularly. We swear we will stop the hacking and find the silly hackers
Please feel a starving Onion today they're so hungry
There are days when I wish Y2K had really happened and we got set back to using rotary phones, this is one of them.
