How long until someone hacks a drone and uses it to commit a school shooting?
How long until someone creates a plausibly convincing fake of these drones and uses them to perform a false flag or massacre with no chance of culpability?
Oh I guess that would be easier
Or some situation arises where innocent students are the target
"You see, your kids died, but at least it was only your kids, and not anyone else. They probably would have died from the shooting anyways lmao"
Or when they start using the drones as truancy officers as a cost cutting measure …
"Truancy is at an all time low" report various government instances. Oddly enough child sized coffins sales at an all time high, experts call it an "odd coincidence" more at 5.
On it
