Robots on the streets of America could soon become a reality, says US Defence Agency

The chance of modern day Robocops being called in to help with American crimes is seeming more likely, with US police forces being told they can request battlefield robots produced by the Defence Logistics Agency (DLA) over the last decade.

Defence Agency delegates told a conference in Washington last week that any police or homeland security department with a counter-terrorism or anti-drug mission may be eligible to get its very own robot.

Dan Arnold, a regional manager of the agency’s Disposition Office, says that 'hundreds' of war-hardened robots will be donated to police departments.

No accountability and of course if there is 'collateral damage', they can blame the droid.
