I pointed out that she wasn't accusing the robot of it, but rather being concerned about where it was deployed. This is not the simple argument you seem to believe. For example, making the most minority portion of your population intimidated by your new toy sends the wrong message you know? Because its not about the crime here. Its how it is perceived. If the minorities are to be threatened by this, then everyone else should too.
So it should only be deployed in Beverley Hills and The Hamptons?

Duh.
It was deployed into high crime areas. Why do you leftists insist on living in a fantasy world about where the high crime rates are?
The KKK and neo-Nazis should agree with AOC. Don't put more policing in high crime rate areas so more minorities can die.

Maybe they should be intimidated by the high crime rates. More active policing has saved minority lives. When policing becomes less active more minorities are murdered (predominantly by other minorities in their own neighborhoods).
If AOC had a brain or was honest, she might realize that they are being deployed in high crime areas where they are most needed. Already saved minority lives, which seems important except to the people that screech the most about minorities.
I respect an argument about smaller government etc, but this is race pandering while ignoring the reality of where crime happens.
Hostage situations dont correlate with socioeconomics. Crime of opportunity, drug use does.
