Zebediah:
In North Carolina? The state legislature passed a law voiding AI rights on the grounds that the AI Rights Amendment of the US Constitution doesn't actually apply to AIs.  :roll:

(Sorry, just not really pleased with my former home right now.)

She's not? Was she given another name in an earlier comic?

...and removing the rights of veterans - also blacks, jews etc - to sue for discrimination under state or even city law. Rights granted in 1980 as the toothless law from the 70s was found to be useless, as there was no means of enforcement. Not just removing them, but making it actually illegal for cities and counties to grant them in lieu of State protections.

Back to the good old days of 1979, when "those people" knew their place. And we're reminded of it daily by not just teenage assholes, but legislators too.

Given Bubbles' physical capacity for mayhem, restrained only by the fact that she's not morally bankrupt, I can easily imagine a scare campaign being all too successful at stampeding a panicking mob. In Houston too, for that matter. "Focus on Humanity" using copied mugshots from probationers' offices to argue that AIs are really Skynet just waiting the opportunity to slaughter our children in their beds.

This comic is a bit more subtle - and acceptable - than Claire' crie de coeur - but that may just be because none of the readers would disagree with the contention that the teenagers are just being assholes, and hurting someone vulnerable who doesn't deserve it. There's no need for the mods to state that this forum is a "safe space" for AIs.

MrWoodchip:
These guys are... I can't think of a word with the right intensity, so just think of the most severe insult you can.

For real, fuckin' dbags.

Tanman:
Well... that wasn't funny at all  :oops:
