The slippery slope for kill bots descends all the way from the very idea of robotics. As soon as we figured out the concepts necessary to create functional robots, we were casting our wet primate minds ahead to robots that can be used to kill people. The Wright Bros. invented the airplane, and within a decade we had machine guns and bombs strapped to them. We discovered atomic physics, and it took about 13 seconds for the same giant brains to realize you could make the worst thing ever if you knew what you were doing.
Thankfully, we have had the better part of a century to explore the ramifications of such awful inventions as a kill bot, and some fictional explorations of the subject are deeply ingrained in pop culture and the mass consciousness. Because, otherwise, a lot fewer people would think robotic police executioners is something we ought to stringently avoid making mainstream.
