And she wasn't sure about the status of Martians. And it got me thinking (always a bit perilous) about the ramifications -- you know, legally speaking -- about applying rules and laws to non Terran entities. I have an opinion, of course, but I am too sensitive to potential cultural differences to want to articulate it until I've heard more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelli May Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 They're people, obviously. Martian people. Now if we can determine if robots, dolls, vehitars, talking pies and super-intelligent shades of the colour blue are people, we'll be getting somewhere.
