Re: It's a new game
Cool. Maybe they can come up with a game that teaches cops not to murder women sleeping in their beds.
Defense. Rebounds.
Re: It's a new game
That is on topic.
And for real, good post, this is interesting. What sort of real life scenarios are there? I’m curious about the world of possibilities and the world of trouble.
Hot 103 Jamz used to have these PSAs on how to act if a cop stops you. Is it stuff like that?
As for keeping it on topic: are some of the game scenarios an automatic death card where they bust in while you’re sleeping in your bed? or eating ice cream on your couch, or playing with a toy in a park?
Which is to say, does the game do anything to address police brutality too, or is it just some sorta obedience training?

When you call people "racists" who aren't, you diminish the real racists in our society.

One thing I know: I don’t diminish the word dumbfuck with you
Re: It's a new game
You have no idea how rare those are. Every time someone gets an unearned "resisting arrest" charge tacked on to their offenses. Every time a citizen responds naturally to a surprising level of physical contact initiated by a police officer and finds themselves facing charges. I would imagine some level of it happens every single day.

Most, as in 99%+ish of interactions with the police, don't result in resisting arrest or anything violent from either side.
Do you know how many interactions police have with citizens everyday? Probably hundreds of thousands.
My lord.
Re: It's a new game
That's an absolutely unprovable number. All you are doing is diluting an unreasonable amount of poor police behavior by throwing in every possible "interaction" between a person and a civilian to drive the "statistic" in a direction. Gross shit like that is why no one fixes the problems.IllinoisJayhawk wrote: ↑Mon Oct 05, 2020 8:04 pmThey are VERY VERY rare.twocoach wrote: ↑Mon Oct 05, 2020 7:40 pmYou have no idea how rare those are.

The real problem isn't that there is rampant police brutality, the real problem is that when the rare instances occur it is even more rare that the police are held accountable. That is the real fucking problem.
Forgive me for laughing a little bit, but you strike me as someone who knows hardly any people of color, and even more as someone who has next to ZERO close friends or family members who are people of color.
And yes, ANY amount of poor police behavior is UNACCEPTABLE. Everyone agrees on that. It is a career choice where fuck ups aren't allowed.
And fwiw, every interaction SHOULD be included because as we have seen people have been unjustly killed in all of those sorts of scenarios. Traffic stops. Selling cigarettes. Playing with a toy gun in a park. Etc.
Re: It's a new game
So we agree on my original statement that sometimes people get treated poorly by the police even when they comply.IllinoisJayhawk wrote: ↑Mon Oct 05, 2020 8:24 pmYou're such a self righteous pompous dickbag.twocoach wrote: ↑Mon Oct 05, 2020 8:12 pmThat's an absolutely unprovable number.

That isn't Whataboutism.
This was because you didn't like my use of the word rare. And you need to argue with nearly everything i say. And your reading comprehension isn't great because you get too excited to start an argument....even when someone agrees with you.
Every. Time.
