Several US schools to install pepper-spraying drones as school shooting response
a day ago
- Several US schools are installing pepper-spraying drones, inspired by the Ukraine war, to respond to school shootings.
- The drones, provided by Campus Guardian Angel, launch after threat confirmation, are flown remotely, and feature a speakerphone for two-way communication.
- They carry pepper launchers, can break windows, drop air poppers, and deliver kinetic strikes to incapacitate a shooter.
- The company plans to use waves of 3-4 drones to occupy the shooter until law enforcement arrives.
- Critics like Tony Montalto, father of a Parkland victim, argue that the focus should be on prevention rather than reaction.
