As long as these robots stay at the border, we should be fine. It's just the consequences of the reasearch needed to get those border guards that scares me.

We'll never be able to get within 10 miles of the border if that happens. it'll be harder than trying to fly into machine city.

The BBC has this video report on it...

It caught my interest because of this text on my email provider's site....specifically the mention of "assassin robots"....I thought it was a misprint of "assisstant"....but no....it's robot assassins....
