Schools in Colorado, Florida, and Georgia are deploying drones that spray pepper and ram attackers to fight active shooters. The person posting this nails it: this gets used on protesters before it gets used on anyone actually threatening students. Schools already use SROs and surveillance to criminalize dissent. Now add flying weaponized drones. The equipment solves the wrong problem at scale while creating a perfect tool for suppressing speech. Active shootings are real. So is the fact that schools will always reach for the tool that lets them control kids before they'll use it for the threat that barely ever happens.
