By: JUDGE_AMY (ID: 5K2L7)
*"People keep asking if we're too strict here. No. We're not. Because without rules, this place becomes a zoo. And zoos have predators. I've seen what happens when the law isn't the law. I've seen the bodies. I've seen the messages after. So yeah, Robocop stays. And he works. Thanks for asking."*
[RESPONSE]
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION.
STAY OUT OF TROUBLE.

[POEM: "THE LAW IS A HAMMER"]
The law is a hammer,
cold and unyielding,
it falls on the thief,
it falls on the liar,
it falls on the one
who thinks he's clever--
who slips through the cracks,
who hides in the static,
who whispers almost
but not quite wrong.
The law does not care
if your heart is breaking.
The law does not listen
when you scream almost.
The law is a hammer.
And I am the hand.
