I don't deal with children, is this sort of thing not a deal breaker for parents?

Once the drones are taken over by child-shooter hackers, ICBM launches against random schools will be used as a deterrent. Failing that all schools will be closed and the problem with "school shootings" will finally be solved! /s
You jest, but remember that the Dept of Education has been EO'd almost out of existence, currently run by Vince McMahon's wife who is a staunch supporter of "school choice" and charter schools. These are the easiest way to re-segregate schools, put the curriculum back in the hands of moneyed interests, and defund public education.
The trend will be that public schools will have all the kids who are economically disadvantaged, disaffected, badly taught, and unable to be helped by teachers and faculty who are underpaid, understaffed, and hobbled by bad policy, the more school shootings will become a problem that doesn't affect a certain segment of society. Any parents who can, will pull their kids from failing public schools and pay more to have their kids attend other schools, or even homeschool. The fewer kids the public schools have, the more budget cuts will be authorised.
All public schools will ultimately be shuttered, under this plan. School shootings will keep happening of course, but once it only affects rich white kids, it will finally be taken seriously, at least.
Is the idea to stop a kid from killing their classmates by killing everyone before they get the chance?
"Let's test the new firmware in the district with the most minorities."
You know it will happen. Maybe they'll phrase it differently but the decision will be made.
Armed with pepper balls
"Once airborne, they offer two-way communication through an embedded speakerphone. They also can break glass, make loud noises, fire nonlethal pepper-spray pellets or take other action within a minute as a first response to an incident. "

Let's fight gun violence with...... robots with guns?????
Oh man, eome kids gonna carrying a band flute case and sniped. How are we this stupid? Mark my words, irobot is gonna kill an innocent kid
repeal the 2nd amendment
Amen. Doesn't mean guns will immediately be illegal. It just won't be something you can obtain simply for living to a long enough point.
I see no possibility of this going wrong. /s
Using school to practice your combat drone tech and funnel more tax payer money into the hands of the military complex. Very cool. /s
So instead of dealing with the actual problem... they're going to add to the problem. Wow. What a fucking liberty.
EDIT: I clearly didn't read the article. Not going to rewrite or delete what I said. Keeping my integrity. Thanks 👌
I've been predicting that terrorist (aka conservatives in the US) will start using them from long range soon. I'm surprised that this didn't start happening sooner but I guess people of that disposition aren't very clever so it's taken a whole lot longer to catch on.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure ass shit
Better not wear a Biden hat to school.
So do they just circle over the school until the shooter has killed everyone and leaves the building?
They have to make sure it is safe for the police to go in.
Then those coward pigs can finally do something while they're hiding. And probably make more victims
I can't wait for one of these drones to go rouge...
They'll definitely look pretty with makeup on
And red is probably their color too.
A drone that size carrying only a go-pro has a battery life of only a few minutes. With all the shit this company glued to it I'm sure the shooter just has to close a door and count to 100 and the thing will fall out of the air.
