Haha .. That's actually a thoughtful, albeit rhetorical, question. ;)
No, I am fine with alligators walking the planet. I admit, my initial response is a bit stupid. The point I am trying to make is that a.) new technology brings new dangers and b.) there will be people who would like to use these as a weapon (for fun, to terrorize, to make a statement ...)
It would be stupid to outright deny new technology because of this. However you should be informed (learn about all the pros and cons) when deciding on whether or not to adapt a technology.
For instance, so many things have become painful (for good or bad reasons) for the sake of countering terrorism. So why go through all the trouble to finally just offer new toys to the bad boys?
I don't mean everything that can be used as a weapon (which is literally everything) should be forbidden but I don't see a serious debate about the benefits and perils of self driving cars and thus I don't think decision makers can make an informed decision.
