I predict the first kid to get pepper-sprayed will be Black.

you’re not wrong.

in a more comical scenario, i predict that a programming club will get expelled for using their flipper zero to take control of the pepper spraying drone.

Aren't most shooters actually white? That was my impression.
Now I am going to Google this. Hello rabbit hole!

They're saying this will backfire and will attack people who are not actual shooters

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 27 points 1 day ago

Yeah “backfire”

They are saying this is the intention.

Oops, that was just a poptart. We'll release a statement later vaguely alluding to a software malfunction without actually apologizing or assuming any responsibility.

Didn't you know that the only racist is the person who talks about it like that
