A quote, "So loveable, it tugs at our heart strings." WHAT???
And before one of you uhh achksullys me, yes I know that is a paintball gun. Just broaden your imagination a bit more please and include the NYPD in this imagination.

I don't say this often cause it's kinda silly most of the time. But this really is manufactured consent for thinking we need robot dogs having guns. It escalated so fast from a bomb detector/natural disaster aid to a fucking walking turret. All under the guise that oh isn't technology so cute!!! uwu
If it can carry a paintball gun there's no reason why it can't be a platform for other weapons. Wonderful.
In that NYPD post about them using it the officer said, "it was just like playing a video game." Exactly what the drone operators say.
NYPD will start targeting G*mers to join the force and pilot these robot dogs as they police low income neighborhoods.
The military has been doing it for almost two decades now. It only seems logical the NYPD, with a budget bigger than entire countries would also follow the same path
hmm, i wonder if there's a term for when the tactics and weaponry used by an empire on its frontier begins being used on its own citizens

I mean, it can already shoot pepper balls so it is ready to go.
Yep, nothing stopping it from holding a rubber bullet and flash bang gun.
No, I mean, you shoot peper balls out of a paintball gun. This is a fully operational robotic weapon system now
Yeah I know, lol. If it can hold a paintball gun it should be no problem holding other weapons, like for flash bangs or rubber rounds and what not. What's a scary thought is this thing just walking around freely shooting out tear gas tornados at people.
