The state has all these fancy gadgets but they can't stop one lone homie from climbing on a roof. Trump is only alive because of bad aim. The more they develop this and rely on high tech, the more blind spots there are for low/no tech forms of resistance. Alternatively if these bots become prevalent can we learn to hack them or commandeer them?

At the very least disabling them shouldn't be too hard, doubt they're milkshake proof milkshake

Bottle of glue mixed with sand would fuck any robot right up.

Especially if you get that plastic glue stuff used for warhammer, the kind of glue that isn't actually glue but works by melting the plastic so it fuses with other stuff. Melt the wires, plastics and other elements.

A bit of acid would have the same effect too.

Huh, I wonder if acetone would fuck it up too

Doubt it unless combined with something like hydrogen peroxide.

Just as His Holiness St. Bhagavan Shree Matt Christman (PBUH) has proposed in his infinite wisdom.

It wasn't even bad aim, if Trump had skipped his Adderall that day and wasn't so fidgety we'd be having a very different conversation

They can't stop one lone guy from going on a roof because they're pathetic. They left the roof because it was too hot and then when one went up to confront him they ran away and gave up when they saw he had a rifle
