Magniras:
Robot Jail does sound cruel and unusual, but how do you rehabilitate AI criminals? Rewrite them? Use human psychology on them?
And as cruel and unusual as Robot Jail might be, I can't find it in me to be sympathetic for May who committed her crime with the intent of becoming a war machine and doing god knows what.
Farideh:
My mental image of May as a jet fighter is one doing loop-de-loops while going 'WHEEEEEEE!'
Not very terrifying.

Okay, now imagine if May-Jet-Fighter got pissed off with someone. Or got into an argument with someone on a forum or something.

Yes. People who have actually been subjected to prison are the most likely to be vocal about finding it to be cruel. Stellar observation. Good job. Well done. A+.

--- End quote ---
Funny thing, I'd be upset, too, if I had years of my life taken by locking me in a cage of concrete and steel. I actually think the "getting caught" part isn't really the upsetting thing.

Sure sure. Tell you what. The penalty for jaywalking is now to have your arms and legs cut off. You know that's the penalty now, so if you get caught jaywalking it isn't cruel or unusual to cut off your arms and legs. Because it's the law and the law is always just. Right? No? Is it possible for the law to be unjust? If it is, then your argument is spurious. If you think it isn't, then I have no idea what the hell is wrong with you.

Someone: "So why not do a 'gofundme' to pay for a body that can fly?"
May: "Fuck. Never thought of that..."
