Ah, right, I always forget about the "except for people you kinda don't like" clause in the rules of firearms safety.

Sadly, that's basically the perspective of the guy in the article:

   “I don’t want that on my conscience—something I 
   created going out and killing people all over the damn 
   place,” he said. “I’m not worried about what it does 
   over in Iraq or Afghanistan. That’s fine.”
It was starting to sound like a lot of fun, but that quote sort of brought me back to reality. (Who knows if it's an accurate quote, of course.)
On the other hand, the robot arm might have been carrying an iron rod that just looked like a gun, loaded or otherwise?
