Meet Chinas New Taser Wielding Riot Control RobotBy Joshua Krause But its important to remember that not all cops are bad. It may seem that way, because people are much more likely to turn on their smartphone cameras when a cop is being an intolerable tyrant. There are still plenty of police officers out there who have a conscience; and, no doubt, the government is afraid of these officers more than anyone else. Theyll never be able to crackdown on the population, unless they have near 100% obedience from their enforcers. Thats why the governments of the world are very interested in developing robots for military and law enforcement applications. They need yes men more than ever, and if they cant get enough yes men to enforce their onerous rules, then theyll turn to yes robots to fill the gap, and replace all the cops and soldiers who dont toe the line. Theyll do it for a lot of the same reasons that private companies are trying to automate their respective industries. In any given workforce, there are humans that complain. There are people who need time off and benefits. There are people in positions both high and low, who can blow the whistle on crimes and labor violations. Ultimately, running a business means appeasing a bunch of ornery humans, each with individual needs, wants, and agendas. And lets not forget, they all need to be paid. But, more importantly, the government needs people who are willing to control the population. Robots simplify everything for people who are control freaks, and as it just so happens, control freaks tend to gravitate into positions of higher authority in both the public and private spheres. In the case of our government and other governments around the world, the control freaks are eager to clean out all the do-gooders and conscientious individuals who are less than willing to carry out their orders to brutalize the population. If they can replace these people with robots and promote the remaining yes men to higher positions, then they no longer have to answer to anyone. And dont think for a second that this is going to happen many years down the road. Its happening right now in countries like China. While the US has been leading the charge for military robots, Chinas autocratic regime may be ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to law enforcement robots. In fact, theyre about to introduce one of the worlds first policing robots, complete with a taser for shocking non-compliant citizens. Take note. This is the future. Theres no reason why robots like this wont show up in your neighborhood someday. Pretty much all governments have the same desire to control their population, and technology knows no borders.
