This is more than a trick question. Our sense of vulnerability informs the contextual parameters of our situation which then determines such responses as normal (because we feel safe) or aggressive (because we feel threatened).
Without a sense of pain robots may not be able to feel empathy and without some sort of empathy the advent of killer robots such as those designed by Kalashnikov (https://goo.gl/3tHhXc) may be a tad worrying.

This all leads to the problem of self consciousness, which seems too far away.
