This isn’t a robot that can think for itself, it is controlled with a remote. It also has a bullhorn attached to the top so that a person can scream at the homeless to move along. There is also, of course, a camera on the robot so the person controlling it can see what is going on.  Finally, it has a small hose sticking out of it that can spray the homeless with water if they refuse to leave the area.

Given the reaction from the man who got hit with the hose, either it sprays a lot harder than it looks or that is actually deadly acid spraying from its … um … hose-like-appendage.

I will say that I do not live in the Atlanta area at all so I have no idea what his politics are. But I will say that I find it funny that he owns a bar called “O’Terrill’s” – I guess he stuck the “O” in front to sound Irish. I am not sure I could trust such a man.
