The Internet Just Bought Detroit A Robocop Statue

Step one: ask mayor to build Robocop statue in your city. Step two: when he says no, create a Kickstarter page to raise the necessary $US50,000 from the kind-hearted corners of the internet. Step three, succeed! Step four: Robocop.

Special shout-out to San Francisco businessman Pete Hottelet, whose $US25,000 donation tipped the scales for the movement. The statuorganisers are currently working with the mayor’s office to determine a prime location. Which, duh, wherever the crime is happening. [Detroit Free Press]
