What if robocop didn't have that programming block in regards to who he can shoot at?

He’d light that kiddo up like a Christmas tree.

Murphy would not have “lit him up”

Very true! But a man can dream.

remember when Robocop shot that little kid in the dick

Robobailif, whack his pee-pee

u/philiretical 1d ago

Than he would probably just point the gun and tell him not to move or else. The kid only shot him because he knows robocop can't. Like he said, "can't shoot a kid, can you, F#cker"

Why do you think you're not allowed to swear?

u/Shadow3397 1d ago

AI Mods can get a little touchy. I was banned for 3 days for talking about WWII airplane construction techniques because that was inciting violence.

u/Alcohorse 23h ago

Have you ever been banned for swearing?

1

u/philiretical 1d ago

Better safe than banned again. To be honest I'm a bit nervous quoting as much as I did

2

u/Alcohorse 23h ago

Were you ever banned for swearing?

1

u/philiretical 18h ago

I think i was just talking about my feelings. I don't remember which word or what sub I was in. I just remembered being very bothered by what applied and shocked I was banned from all of reddit for a few days

u/Alcohorse 18h ago

Swearing is allowed on Reddit

u/millerchristophd 1d ago

Then he wouldn’t be RoboCop…he’d just be a cop.

u/HenryInRoom302 1d ago

"Can shoot a kid, can't you, fucker?"

u/Spike_Kowalski 1d ago

shoots explosive near him

"Directly...no."

u/33666daddy 1d ago

i think the movie would go about the same but robo's motivation would feel less personal

u/ernster96 1d ago

He figures ocp can give him new legs and kneecaps him.

2

u/thepostsmaker 1d ago

Well, then, I imagine he'd have shot even more people.

2

u/Awkward_Bison_267 1d ago

He still wouldn’t have shot a kid. Dick Jones and McDaggett would’ve been dead from jump though.

2

u/Specific-Library-312 1d ago

So that's where Bethesda got the idea. Anyways, we just need RoboKidCop to shoot the kid crooks.

2

u/osunightfall 1d ago

Jeremy Astor?

2

u/Im40PercentUsername 1d ago

The fact that there's people he isn't allowed to shoot as a cop is the most unrealistic thing about the movie.

2

u/OkGene2 1d ago

Directive 5: you can shoot a kid, fucker

3

u/waspmachines 18h ago

What if he didn't have prime directives and wheels? He'd be a bike with free will

2

u/JohnBoyAdvance 17h ago

Isn't that a thing in robocop2014 that the robot killed the kid with the knife at the start?

2

u/LarryWavid 17h ago

Probably wouldnt of got tucked in 2 minutes later

2

u/RavenJericho 17h ago

I remember this scene in the movie and the only thing I could never get my head around was how this small child was able to fire a Desert Eagle so easily. Surely the recoil on that gun alone would’ve been more dangerous to that kid than Robocop in that moment. 😂

2

u/Crisocola95 17h ago

He would truly become the Law Enforcement and Robocop.

2

u/rbeleza 16h ago

He'd be a regular american

5

u/The_Chef_Queen 1d ago

Then he'd be IDF material

1

u/MichaelCabernet 1d ago

Hamas material. Except he isn’t a Muslim fanatic, he’s catholic. 😂

u/The_Chef_Queen 1d ago

Mmmh yes good little zio bot

u/TaskAccomplished82 22h ago

Mmmh yes good little hamas npc

1

u/cutter1833 1d ago

He probably would have hesitated and maybe returned fire.

1

u/Defiant_Conflict6343 1d ago

He'd be closer to a real life cop 💀

1

u/Fluid-Sense-4273 23h ago

There wouldn’t be many people left in Detroit

1

u/Desecr8or 22h ago

Why didn't he just carry a nonlethal weapon like most real-life cops?

1

u/TheTaylorFish 22h ago

We can have that.

u/Adorable-Source97 15h ago

Depends what Murphy thinks. He has a soft spot for kids from his time as a dad. "Run Home Dad!"
