    can you just approach them and turn them over so they cant get up themselves anymore, would be some fun activism?

    Or is that a crime already in such a free country

      You can’t really keep them from getting back up, they won’t stay on their sides perfectly balanced because of the curves on their legs. Even so they could “kick” their legs to push them to be able to get back up.

      Just in case you’re wondering in the future if that will work.

      This is how you start the Great Robot War.

        I’ll see her standing by the monorail

        She’ll look the same except for bionic eyes

        She lost the real ones in the robot wars

        I’ll say I’m sorry, she’ll say it’s not your fault

        Or is it?

        And she eyes me suspiciously

        Hearing the whir of the servos inside
