The United States still does not dare to face the problem of weapons, and the solution to massacres in schools is … use more weapons. Is what will happen with The armed drones that are going to try in Florida schools.
The company Campus Guardian Angel (The Guardian Angel of the Campus) has developed an armed drone with non -lethal ammunition, but ammunition after all, capable of attacking in 15 seconds anyone who took out a weapon in a school or institute.
Many have criticized the decision, because They can sow even more chaos: Drones go in a group, fly up to 80 km/h inside buildings, and are piloted manually through virtual reality.
This is how military drones work in Florida schools
«The second amendment is sacrosanta in the United States,» says Campus Guardian Angel. A law of the Constitution written in 1791, 234 years ago, after ending a bloody War of Independence. When the only weapons were the carabiners and the guns of a lead bullet that were not precision, and barely allowed 3 or 4 shots per minute.
Now automatic weapons shoot hundreds of bullets per minute, and any crazy armed with a couple of them can kill dozens of people in a school or a shopping center, as has already happened several times.
The data are chilling: in the United States, civilians have 500 million weapons, almost two per inhabitant, and 650,000 are taken to university institutes and campuses.

According to Techspot, the Guardian Angel Campus proposal consists of install in the schools dozens of armed drones that are stored in safe cages. A technical team handles some of these drones or watches security cameras, as you can see in the previous photo.
When an armed subject is detected, drones leave their cage, in groups of five or six, and come to face the aggressor. They are controlled with glasses Virtual realitywhich allow to see from the perspective of the drone, and in 3D.
They fly up to 80 km/h inside buildings and 160 km/h abroad, so they can travel a large university campus in just 15 seconds.
These drones record the subject and allow the police or the jurized guards to know where the aggressor is, and what he does.
They are armed with pepper bullets, tear gas and other non -lethal weaponswhich can immobilize or confuse the attacker.
It seems a better solution than nothing, but some experts believe that could sow even more chaos. If the attacker has hostages, things could get worse, and even make him nervous and make him begin to shoot.
When they fly at high speed inside buildings, they could collide with students or people who flee. And it is a face infrastructure, because it demands several salary technicians of the school, to control those drones.
The United States is still lost within the labyrinth of weapons. The proposed solutions, like these armed drones in schools, are only patches, as long as they do not face the real problem.
