Sounds like nyouve forgotten the history of failures in this field relating to identifying who is or is not human based on skin color.
Some of the victims will invariably be dissidents rather than mass shooters when nasty regimes get their hands on them.
So we’re back to the arguments against weapons generally. Yes, you can use a weapon for bad things.
