Rise of the War Machines: Recruiting Robots for Combat

~





The problem is that innocent men, women, children and babies don't have robots to defend them from our killer robots! So war will be safer for whom?






War would be a lot safer, the Army says, if only more of it were fought by robots.

And while smart machines are already very much a part of modern warfare, the Army and its contractors are eager to add more.

New robots - none of them particularly human-looking - are being designed to handle a broader range of tasks, from picking off snipers to serving as indefatigable night sentries.

So instead of trying to avoid, or eliminate war, we are expanding it's capabilities. De-humanizing it. Your tax dollars at work.

The Nazi saying was DEUTSCHLAND UBER ALLES. The new one will be AMERICA UBER ALLES, WITH A ROBOT ARMY! There goes our Social Security money.
