    I must dispute the term "brutally" as the robot in question
    is incapable of emotion.

    Interesting that the article is stressing how it was everybody
    /else's/ fault, not the robot's -- or, rather, those who
    produced/programmed it.
    Also, the obvious solution (put a fence around the area the robot is
    allowed to use to keep the kids far enough away) does not appear to be mentioned.

    Indeed but perhaps it was a CPC member who thought up the event
    so the citizens must be blamed rather than the Party.
