    US to deploy robots armed with machine guns. Run by Remote control unit with
    two joysticks and video screen.

    Lets hope they never invade a country run by teenagers in bedrooms or
    they'll get their arses kicked.

    LOL/ You ****/Stop Spamming

    Anyone read "Forever Peace" by Joe Halderman. This gets a bit too hippy for
    my liking but the central idea is that American soldiers use remote
    controlled robots to fight wars in (less advanced and less well armed)
    countries without all that tedious business of (a) Actually going there and
    (b) Getting killed.
