Imagine a future where robots live among us. . .
| I'd send them to jail because the death penalty is overzealous in almost all cases.
| If the robots are "made to be that way", it means that they have no freedom to act. As long as you don't judge guns for killing people, you wouldn't judge those robots.
Justice requires freedom. And therefore only applies to individuals with choices.
| You destroy the robot, or reprogram it at least, and punish the maker with jail or something.
| Well, there is Fallout and the Synths, probably robots will become more and more realistic until it leads to an indistinguishable point, I think it's kinda bad

If it comes to indistinguishable "robots", then:
- it would be what people want
- it wouldn't matter whether they are human or not
We are unable to define what a specie is. As for human, which describes itself as an intelligent being, I would believe that it could be used to define humanity.
Therefore, a robot that blends perfectly within humanity could be considered human, and I don't see any problem with that.
| If they did it willingly and had a programmed free will, then they should go to jail and the creator should act as the parent, meaning he would get away
At least, that's my opinion

| A robot willingly murders someone, because they are made to be human, being lead by emotions.
You are in charge of judging said robot, who pleads for his life, as he claims was made to be that way.
Do you prosecute the robot, or the maker?
