Fear The Robots. Fear The Robot Love.

From the News &
Observer
(via boingboing,
Andrew
Sullivan
).  Remember this
statement from David Gibbs III at an anti-gay marriage rally in Raleigh, North
Carolina this spring?

(Gibbs) told rally participants gay marriage would "open
the door to unusual marriage in North Carolina. . . .

"Maybe people will want to marry their pets
or robots
." (emphasis mine)

From BuzzFeed
(via Chris Bodenner at The
Daily Dish
), these robots, developed by the National Taiwan University of
Science and Technology, have been programmed to kiss.
