Eventually, fully authorized "independent thinking" Deadly Robot Police will come to pass. It will be the "norm". One could argue its way too soon to start today.
However, an unthinking Deadly Robot under full human control is merely an extension of the human operator. So, that could work -- and save lives on both sides of the fight.

Call the paramedics! They can't do much for that poor man! That's just Paul Verhoeven's natural gift of portraying the absurd on film.

Any notions people have of robots patrolling the street and dispensing justice should be properly dispelled.
All this is is a response to Cali's new laws, where permission for this sort of thing must be approved by... someone who probably knows nothing about it. But this was just granting permission for the robots the police already have to use deadly force in extreme circumstances, such as when they used a robot to blow up the Dallas sniper a few years ago. Until now, California PDs could not do the same, now they can. Not a big deal really. It's a way to end sticky situations without putting officers in the line of fire.
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

Gee, I had my pitchfork already to go too. Such a buzzkill.
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty. This is known as "bad luck.” -Robert Heinlein

Corporations & the military they build weapons for are a big part of the forces advancing robots for defensive and offensive purposes so the ground work has already be prepared and autonomous machines using progressively more complex AI platforms are not far from taking over more human tasks including some in law enforcement .
