The ones at Mar-A-Lago are unarmed.
My approach to the armed ones, particularly the tazer-equipped ones used by some US law enforcement departments, would be very different.

They are also not autonomous. They have armed secret service agents very nearby. If the sensors on the dog alert them, trigger happy armed guards will come.

Joke’s on them, I won the robot dogs over with my pets and can turn the sentry turrets against the guards.

That’s assuming I actually look like a threat, rather than someone infatuated with the weird robot dog.
It’s a golf park full of rich old people. I bet the dog-hecklers will come dozens per hour.

You must be white or not from the US. The police in the US are taught to shoot first. Sometimes they get asked questions later.
