    Good News Evryone !

    Ohh Bender I will enjoy your subtile sense of humor, now I can hope I will ever enjoy you Bender.

    Will these police robots drink alcohol to power themselves :D
    Will they hook their body when the titanium prices explode ?

    But beware the pleasure bots where mentioned here also, "Don´t date a robot",
    or you will one small piece in the exstinction of human life.

    Ok, now we need suicide booths too, most western cilisations have a problem
    with old people, in contrast to africa, where there really aren´t any people getting older than 40, god sake for AIDS and war induced population controll,

    I bet china is the first country which induces "population controll" using
    "sleep forever pills" like that Jack Bauer keep´s in his locker 24/7,

    Here´s an advice for people need to escape these korean policebots in the
    run over stairs, you know what happend to ED2K when he tried to chase
    Robocop, don´t forget your mutated anthrax to take down human cops
    these are nasty, but most important don´t forget to load your gun with armor piercing ammo.

    Hey when we have Cop-bots with live ammo, then where is the eye in the sky,
    equiped with a minigun,

    ok now the last word to the people who hate other people and yell,
    "I think you watch too much TV"

    when you were able to recognize everything I wrote here, you watched
    same as I have done !
