In Arizona, a Tesla Model X self-driving car operating on autopilot hit a police motorcycle.
Black Lives Matter just ordered 1000 of them.

Promotional stunt for new show, “Chips.”
Programmers must really hate the man.
So, it’s a scene from Sons of Rational Anarchy.

[In his 1966 novel, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, … Robert A. Heinlein relates how the inhabitants of a colony on the moon carry out a revolution with the aid of a self-aware computer.. During a discussion leading up to the start of the revolution, one of the characters, Professor De La Paz, describes his political philosophy to fellow conspirators, Manuel O’ Kelly and Wyoming Knott.
De La Paz states that he is a rational anarchist:
“A rational anarchist believes that concepts such as ‘state’ and ‘society’ and ‘government’ have no existence save as physically exemplified in the acts of self-responsible individuals. He believes that it is impossible to shift blame, share blame, distribute blame . . . as blame, guilt, responsibility are matters taking place inside human beings singly and nowhere else. But being rational, he knows that not all individuals hold his evaluations, so he tries to live perfectly in an imperfect world . . . aware that his effort will be less than perfect yet undismayed by self-knowledge of self-failure.”
Mannie: “Hear, hear!” I said. “‘Less than perfect.’ What I’ve been aiming for all my life.”
“You’ve achieved it,” said Wyoh. “Professor, your words sound good but there is something slippery about them. Too much power in the hands of individuals — surely you would not want . . well, H-missiles for example — to be controlled by one irresponsible person?”
Prof: “My point is that one person is responsible. Always. If H-bombs exist — and they do — some man controls them. In terms of morals there is no such thing as a ‘state.’ Just men. Individuals. Each responsible for his own acts.”]

It’s a good thing the Tesla didn’t fire a round at the cop, or we’d be hearing “iShot the Sheriff.” From me.
We suffered anyway.
