We Can Put A Man On The Moon, But We Can't Make Killer Robot Police?

Question

Every time I watch the news, I see another story about all the wonderful things NASA is doing in outer space. I know, I know, it's all supposed to be very impressive and exciting. But to be honest, it just boils my blood. I mean, the federal government can put a man on the moon, but it can't build a killer robot police force to keep the cars from roaring down my street at 45 miles per hour? What kind of priorities do we have in this country?

Answer 1

Actually, we easily could. Unfortnately, the bleeding heart liberals of the world would not accept the concept, that even well-designed, the machine might make a mistake. Thus, an innocent (defined by liberals as someone holding a gun to the head of a child, having killed already a child, and threatening to kill again - this person is innocent until proven guilty). Bring on these robots!

The democrats would rather flush your tax dollars down the toilet on "universal health care (perhaps the biggest lie ever created) and wealth re-distribution programs to the sick, lame, and lazy.

Answer 2

Dear Wurm, I would imagine that by now, we could, indeed, build a robot police force (I hope that you did not mean the "killer" part literally). However, one wonders whether or not a "force" is necessary, or build just a unit or two that is able to go into hostage situations or "stand-offs" and take out the person who is causing all the trouble. It might have saved lives in the last two invasions of schools. As far as having these robots actively patrolling our streets, I don't know if the programming could be done for the situation-by-situation choices that would have to be made. It would probably take a heck of a programmer to be able to allow for all of the choices made daily by human police officers.

As far as the dig made by "Teacher," I live in one of the areas most affected by Katrina. I have to let you know that most of the continuing problems are caused on a state level, not a federal level. Then, there are the problems caused by the victims, themselves. MANY of these people don't want "help." They want a free ride with no expectation that they will do anything to help themselves. I have lost all sympathy for those people and the state of Louisiana. The level of graft in that states government is horrifying and frightening. Sad to say, but, I feel we are pouring money down a rat hole.

Before having children you should be means tested. If you can afford a child up to the age of 16 then you are allowed and are given a licence.

If you lose money after having a child then thats ok the Government may offer assistance.

Using the best economists work out how much this would cost and you must show proof of having this lump sum available in the unborns name.

This would prevent degenarates being born and having to be looked after by the state. Less trouble on streets, less crime, less poverty.

Answer 4

We haven't put a man on the moon in a couple decades, but your town taxes do not support the International Space Station up above, so take the cars speeding issue to the town mayor's office.

Answer 5

the unique motivation to place adult men on the Moon and bring them back replaced into no longer scientific, or reasonably priced. It replaced into, first and preferable, POLITICAL. the country had to conquer the Russians to it, and the Russians had to conquer the country to it, as an illustration of superiority of their respective political regimes. and human beings have been keen to back it up with sufficient money. you attempt to describe spending billions of greenbacks now to place a handful of human beings on the Moon now, without substantial return of investment! on the time there replaced right into a marginal return of investment in terms of recent technologies and ideas, besides the indisputable fact that it won't have an analogous result now. it is by using the fact the way it replaced into finished then has been tried and ordinary, so it is going to likely be in fact repeated -- aside from some marginal advancements. it continues to be an particularly existence-threatening endeavour. If something is going incorrect up there, you're in fact on your very own -- and human beings have died. could you be keen to apply a return and forth business enterprise with an twist of destiny fee of a pair of million in one thousand, ballpark? And in which you're in charge on your very own survival while it happens?

Answer 6

Priorities? The present administration has put them in order for you. Americans are last. Go figure. Look at the Katrina devastation. Why are so many people still struggling so hard? Why are there still some children not in schools? How many countries get an annual donation from the US that would completely fund the Katrina clean up in just one payment?

Answer 7

Worse yet, it's illegal to build a device to stop them yourself! Something about mantraps being illegal or some such stupid stuff. We could have a much more polite society if we could 'take care of' the scofflaws and careless individuals ourselves, without the need for recourse to the police and their stupid nonlethal weapons!

Answer 8

Well, the right to not be assaulted by killer robots for one -- masquerading as police even worse so.

Answer 9

It pisses me off when NASA doesn't concentrate on making killer attack sharks will lasers attached to their heads.

Answer 10
