Defendin' 'em from what? Not the bots who are the real threat. Seems to me we're all prisoners and all on the same level. Should be treated the same each and every one 'less one's proven to be needin' the restriction. And we're controlled enough by the bots without bein' controlled by other inmates who ain't any better for us for any reason other than signin' up to work on keepin' control over people with the bots. Just my two cents.
I'm of a mind to say I'll do it just so I can have a weapon to protect me and mine without actually doin' any of the so-called work with the bots that the defense force usually does.
