No good will come of this …

A recent article in the Huffington Post entitled “Predictive Policing Technology Lowers Crime in Los Andsgeles,” certainly doesn’t bury the lead. The police, using computers equipped with some sort of crime prediction software, have identified certain areas in and around L.A. that are at a high risk for specific crimes.

I’ve seen this sci-fi movie, guys … it doesn’t end well.

Below are some pics:
