Guard duty can be exhilarating or down right boring. When I've pulled guard duty I've kept my eyes peeled looking at every turned over rock...made things interesting and made me ever mindful.

A guard is a guard is a guard if you think about it. Now any orders they receive is another matter....

Yep. It would be interesting to see how many of these things are being ordered by the DHS. I could just imagine that these things will be on every corner if martial law were declared.

Wow, just wow. Who here has played Homefront?

When I saw the Real Life ones, I immediately thought of this

That video I posted is how you deal with these towers....

The ones in Real Life with a person inside is ONE STEP away from the automated Sentries in "Home Front."

My Lord. The one in Real Life is just like the one in Home Front. The similarities are uncanny.

This is fucking stupid, stupid video, stupid post.

Yeah right hey are going to use much of anything like that in the middle of a riot while people push it over. This is not police state, this is police realizing it's easier to watch a parking lot from the high ground. tell me, you call it a police state if they were sitting in a deer stand?

And what if they mount guns on this Sentry Tower?! Look at the video and picture I linked.

What if destruction of on of these is made a federal offense?!

I said it before in my earlier responses:

The Real Life ones and the Game Ones are ONE Step Away from each other!

All they need to do to make this a RL SENTRY TOWER!

* Stronger base.

* Bigger box

*Soldiers/police with auto. weapons.

I might agree with you if it wasn't the Fed behind it. What interest should the federal government have in your store parking lot? Now, if it was the local police or the walmart security team behind it, that would be different. But the fed????

Feels like a trial run for something bigger coming down the pipeline.

Do you think rioters care if they are breaking the law? They are rioting, they don't care. There is no doubt that police could have guns in that tower, but how is that any different than snipers sitting on the roof tops or a hunter in tree stand. Give me a fucking break, get your head out of the "they all are after us" clouds. It's technology, it makes sense, they use it.

I bet you think roadside radar signs could have sentry turrets mounted on them too....

The difference is they will shoot people. People who try to bring down the tower.

Play Home Front or Watch the Home Front game footage video (minute 00:43) then say its no big deal




Now imagine it's people shooting. Now do you care if it's in your store's lot?!

Ok, so I guess police aren't allowed to use tools they can buy to police right? Take away their guns, they are too extreme. Take away their cars, it gives them an advantage.
