danger to civilian lives (Gershgorn). Though this may seem like an easy and efficient way to decrease the causalities of innocent bystanders, questions are still being raised about the true need for the robots, whether or not human rights are being violated (Human Rights Watch), and if police should use robots to confront suspected criminals.

look closely to understand the violation of Human Rights, Stereotypes and Discrimination. Human Rights are inherent rights to all human beings, whether their nationality, place of residence, sex or any other status. They are all equally entitled to their human rights without discrimination. These rights are all interrelated, interdependent and indivisible. Social or religions inequality is deeply ingrained in some cultures. For instance, with Human Rights, research has also documented of how,…

War often carries enormous human costs, but we recognize that the imperative of stopping or preventing genocide or other systematic slaughter can sometimes justify the use of military force.

(DPRK) has been under the watchful eye of many nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, among others; as well as perhaps the most well known intergovernmental organization (IGO), The United Nations.
