Check it out, now I can shoot my quota of 50000 deer a week without even having to get my disgusting redneck beergutted ass out of its chair!

Fucking Texas. And I have to go visit the family there in a few weeks, I swear I'm going to be lynched before the first day ends.

Other than a sense of spine-tingling horror, this article evokes several unrelated ideas in my firing synapses. These remote-controlled camera/rifle combos
could be used most effectively on the front lines of combat in war. As an added bonus, we can use the technology as a bargaining chip. We can sell it to
other countries who will then incorporate it into their own military. As an extra-special treat, any country we will subsiquantly need to overthrow will
be easily destroyed by a carefully-placed h4X0rZing excersise. I've got this hilarious image of someone trying to use a remote to kill all of the opposing
soldiers and then the camera goes amoc and the rifle starts shooting everyone while the message "haha j0 g0t pwn3z0r3d b1+|\|" flashes across teh screen
at two-second intervals. Now, wars will be fought not by generals, not by soldiers, but by 13-year-olds living in their mother's basements. ("Billy, why
don't you do something productive, like overthrowing a third-world country?"

I just enjoyed the little peek into the mind of the hunter:

"We were looking at a beautiful white-tail buck and my friend said 'If you just had a gun for that'."

At first I thought this was a cool idea, being able to log in and guide a remote-control killbot in the slaughter of all things fuzzy and organic, but I think they're just basically talking "gun on a stick". Animals are stupid but I think that if, every time a buck wandered past a particular clump of bushes, he got shot at, the local fauna would learn to avoid that area.

I fail to see how wishing to have a remote controlled gun makes me a racist. I have a remote controlled airplane, does that qualify?
