Three districts in the state will have the devices available as a first-response option that coordinates with local law enforcement, drone provider Campus Guardian Angel says.
Can’t imagine what could possibly go wrong with this idea.
I’m trying to imagine something like this getting installed in my old school in the UK, and it’s so bizarre and totally removed from my reality growing up that I can’t even picture it.
The whole concept of a robot armed with a lethal weapon just sitting there in my classroom each and every day, waiting for someone in a remote control centre to decide that someone in the room should be killed? I think that would traumatize me a little even if there never was an attack.
I was in a high school that received this active shooter campus wide recognition system. It included a few physical security systems to help autonomously alert if there were gun shots fired somewhere. One of the systems was these green lights inside the normal flourecent lights. They would turn red or flash or something as a visual alert. But the green light cast this weird green glow everywhere in the school and to me it was this eerie constant reminder of the threat. I was only a visitor for a special program for a few days, but even this was a little traumatizing for me. The drone would be terrifying.

I don’t think it’s a location thing, it’s an intelligence thing - I’m in Florida and it doesn’t make any more sense to me
