MSNBC Live guest Haley Edwards says the fitting of the robot to blow apart the scumbag in Dallas was mean.
She claims the robot wasn't designed for such violence, and should only be used for observation and other pleasant tasks.
Further, this method of ending the situation prevented the perp from being subdued and lawyering up!
Technology knows no bounds and am glad someone on the force had the enginuity to fab-up such an "accessory".
Oh, the humanity!
Your title is very misleading. You are talking about Haley Edwards. Who the heck is she and why do you think she speaks for everyone.
Thank God they did. Otherwise, more cops would have been killed. When the shooter killed five cops, he gave up any rights. They were right to take him down any way possible.
How soon before the wrong person is blown up or an innocent bystander. The perp was surrounded and could have easily been waited out.
Not a leftist.
Easy for you if you don't live or work within the effective range of his rifles. I guess if he was stocked well enough you can do a short term rental of space outside of the kill zone to continue your business and feed your family.
Too Friggin bad, he kills 5 .Police Officers
12 wounded some in serious condition, and she thinks this is mean. This is what is wrong with some people
We do not need this kind of thinking, it gets us no where.
He got what he had coming, I think she is mean, for the stupid ignorant way she feels, after what he did.
We do not need a President in office, who feels as she does, tired of this way of thinking.
I wish the Robot would have taken him out sooner.
While the Dallas case may be the perfect use for such tactics, questions still need to be answered.
So you are fine with using drones (aka robots) in the US, at anytime, against anybody?
That is the question she was asking. When is it alright, who can order such attacks and what guidelines should be used.
You (and many others) have previously made statements (like the below quoted one from you) about the president,the military and drone use in other countries.

If this were any other President , people would be screaming, rolling over in their graves, media frenzy, News Articles, nightly talk show host would have a frenzy with this. There would be tons and tons of reasons why this should not happen. Probably some rioting too. //www.city-data.com/forum/28549154-post27.html
And now you say we should blindly support such actions from a local police department inside the USA?
Is you choice purely based on who is president, since you have previously stated he supports such usage but now you think the opposite. Which is it?
This time it may have been the right thing to do, but where do you want the line drawn?
This all comes down to the GOP failure to pass the AWB. The NRA and its more guns means less death is insane. The police departments all around the nation then wind up having to improve their weapon inventory so as to be able to protect us all from the nuts.
An internal arms race to give the NRA lobbyists proof they are earning their gun manufacturers money.
Every time the GOP comes up with removing regulations the country is hurt and costs us all.
