Military Robots Get Machine Guns
javaxman writes "Next spring, the U.S. military is expecting to deploy Talon robots with machine guns. They can also be equiped with rocket launchers. Really, they're remote-controlled 'bots, not true autonomous 'bots, so you can save the Skynet jokes for, um, some day in the not-to-distant future. This is just the first, or maybe second step. As for me, I just want to see arena matches between gangs of these suckers. Robot wars indeed!"
In Korea only old people have robots with machine guns.

When... will... they... learn! :(
Instead of sending a group of Marines into a house and getting ambushed, we can wheel these robots in and take out those suckers without risking harm to our soldiers.
This is a Good Thing(TM).
These machine-gun robots is the perfect answer to a Chinese wave attack. I could imagine them being amphibious. On a fine morning like 2006 December 7, millions of them would rise up out of the ocean tide and onto the beaches of China. They would march relentless across China, killing all the Chinese soldiers.
The final destination would be Tibet.
As that old Negro spiritual goes, "Free at last [for Tibet]. [Buddha] all mighty! Free at last!"
It's the next generation machine (cache), it's lighter and has a longer run time between charges.

This is /. , where a portion of the posters think that everything the US Military does is evil and that anything that helps them is wrong.
They are unable to thing things thru...
When they torture, kill, and behead AID WORKERS because they do not like them they ARE TERRORISTS an no playing with words will change that.
Maybe it's because you're a pansy assed faggot.
It doesn't bother you that a country that has threatened to nuke Israel off the map is working on nuclear weapons? Most, if not all, of the current countries that have nuclear weapons are sane when it comes to there use - Iran and N Korea do not fall into that catagory.
Perhaps you should read up on how they do things in Iran before you support them having nukes.
before your hijacked plane hits a building. I dont think terrorists or communists are taking a deep breath.
Better thousands of ours then tens/hundred of thousands of the others. If one dead soldier of ours can save ten dead on the other side then its worth it. Military is already droping bombs on places without checking first what exactly is going on there and thus bombing a wedding every once in a while. And all that just because they didn't want to risk a few soldiers.
LOL. Antietam, Gettysburg, Ardennes, Marne, the Eastern Front, Normandy were meat grinders. What we've lost in nearly two years of conflict in Iraq have been lost in an hour in previous wars. Too bad hippies weren't all shot in the 60s before they procreated and created hybrid idiots like yourself.
Just how many more innocent people do they intend to murder to maintain their suv-loving lifestyle? Iraqis are currently paying 30:1 in lives for Sept 11th and Iraq had nothing to do with it.
