Honestly, as another person of a darker persuasion, this is the second thing I thought about this experience after I heard about it...The first, of course, being “That’s pretty neat..” while watching my friend’s kids experience it.

Philando Castile had a concealed carry permit. Plus, he informed the officer that he had it and was fully complying with his requests. How the hell can you even try to justify his shooting? He did absolutely nothing that should have led to his death.
And there are 5x more white people in the country. So the statistic you just cited means black people are almost 3x more likely to be shot by the police.
When I saw this post I nearly fell out from laughter lol. More ironic since not only was I thinking this when I first download the app, but I have experienced it first hand. I live in a predominantly white neighborhood (City as well) and I’m in a interracial marriage of 16 years with 4 kids. I’m never a threat to…
How does the author relaying how he feels as a POC in today’s climate qualify as “race baiting”? Saying you feel uncomfortable and worry that other people might be suspicious of you, even though you’re doing something innocuous, really doesn’t seem like he’s trying to start a flame war.
End the drug war, end one of the biggest and most meaningless pretexts for cops to harass anyone (especially blacks). All of this ridiculous shit typically starts because a cop is sniffing around for weed or thinks somebody is a drug dealer. Those incidents we had a year or so ago where a few black folks were /cavity…
This is gonna be one of those comment sections, so I just want to say I appreciate you sharing with your experience and hope things get better.
Agreed. He’s not saying Pokemon Go is bad or wrong, he’s just pointing out that loitering and wandering around with your phone like a creeper is more dangerous for a black person than a white person.
Nobody is shitting on anyone. They took measures to shore up the playerbase and hopefully keep alive the game that paying customers should want to stay alive.
Maybe you should mind your own business and stick to comments about the topic at hand, the game. Leave the author to make her own decisions about when and when not to smile.
The big deliniator is online play. Gameshark, gamegenie, trainers are perfectly cool in a single player experience imo. The problems arise when someone takes a cheat online and effectivly ruins everyone else’s experience.. mainly for the lulz. What ironic is the same cheaters who gleefully ruin online matches are…
I suppose. It’s a bit foreign to me. I can accept my negatives, and still be a good person. I need to work on my negatives, and make restitution for my wrongs, but they don’t define me.
Well, in some respects his beliefs are empirically wrong. Slut shaming and that serious case of oneitis aren’t necessarily borne of religion, but rather a poor character judgment template and a mental hold-up about one particular woman. He’s hiding behind his religion to justify his own shitty attitude.
There is one really great message in this, and that is that she's not his, he doesn't own her, and she makes her own decisions. The rest is pretty bad, especially the last four sentences. I'm experiencing extreme joy imagining how the great Christopher Hitchens would have responded. I almost went a full day without my…
I’m wondering whether the first reader will be receptive to your advice. It’s rather hard to take, because it may seem like you’re asking him to set aside how he was raised and what his tradition is. None of us let that stuff go lightly. Dr. Nerdlove, you provided the vinegar. I’m going to provide something else.
Seriously. That first letter, just reeks of self-aggrandizement and holier-than-thou judgment. Congrats, he wants to stoop to the level of “filth” and save that “slut” from her “slutty” ways. No kidding that guy can’t date anyone. No one wants to date a guy like that.
The fact that Morgan Freeman is a black man doesn’t preclude him from saying really stupid things about race. His statement was completely asinine.
There’s an old saying “You’re not paranoid if everyone really is out to get you”. Have you looked at the shit that the Gamergate bastards put her through over the last two years? She’s allowed to be touchy on that subject.
Sony Santa Monica has big plans to shake up God of War. “We looked at every aspect of this game differently,”…
Yeah I upgraded to 10 and didn’t lose anything. I’m sure his issue is legitimate, but there’s just so much fear mongering about Windows 10 these days. I remember the other day a friend refused to upgrade to Windows 10 because his old computer had it “for over a year” and it didn’t work well. When I told him Windows 10…
