What’s a crony status quo to do when it is ultimately confronted with an unruly mob of plebs frustrated with the fact median wages haven’t increased in forty five years, while the 0.01% has stolen everything in sight with the help of the Federal Reserve and corrupt Washington D.C. politicians?
Well, naturally you’d launch the South African made Skunk Riot Control Copter, fully equipped with a suite of high-definition and thermal imagine cameras, strobe lights, speakers and a pepper spray firing paint ball gun which can fire 80 shots per second!
We learn from The Verge [8] that:
Crowds of protesters could soon come under attack from riot control drones outfitted with paintball guns, strobe lights, and speakers. The Skunk Riot Control Copter, built by South African company Desert Wolf, has a suite of cameras and four paintball guns strapped to its chassis to help its operators monitor and control unruly crowds. The guns can fire ammunition from four different hoppers, meaning the drone operators can shoot protesters with dye markers, solid plastic pellets, or small capsules of pepper spray.
The first batch of drones will reportedly be deployed to mines in South Africa later this month, where lengthy strikes at some of the country’s biggest facilities have resulted in violence . Mine owners hope that the drones will be able to control and subdue their workers by blasting them with flashing lights, blaring messages of control, and shooting them from the sky. Kieser says he hopes its success in the country will lead to more orders for the gun-toting drone.
Oh you silly little miners want higher wages? You may want to think twice about going on strike, unless you want a couple pepper spray pellets to the dome.

Control Africa?
Ain't gonna happen , I think Africa has 35 small countries , all are at war with each other at any given time. Very similar to the middle east .
Hell , even Oprah gave up on these people.
Obama will send 35 marines to protect the miners.
Uh huh.....the slide down the slippery slope. Keep cheering and soon SOME government will start putting guns on them. At 200 rounds per second.
To "control" things. Like dissent.
The wealthy and powerful don't like it when the peasants complain too loudly about not having enough to eat, or freezing to death, or watching their kids go hungry or die because they can't afford a $5000 deductible.
Technology NEVER stops or reverses itself. It only gets better, bigger, stronger, faster, and often, more deadly.
Drones are no exception.
Keep cheering.
Excellent technology. no need to get the good guys hurt.
A drone that blasts deodorant would be nice to have flying over the bury.
Hey Imclain, there is a drone out there looking for you right now.
