Reply to comment by MentallyMusing in ELI5: Do heist-themed movies&games face any legal difficulties for the fear that they might encourage potential robbers with their smart robbery plans? by [deleted]

It does not matter. Your experience with what the news said instead of actually finding anything out for yourself just makes you part of the propaganda. It was not a rape scene. It was not a cheat code. It was never accused of leading to a specific crime. Since that was what the original question was about, your response does not have anything to do with the question.

I was playing games at the time. I knew about and saw the Hot Coffee mod. The news, parent groups and politicians getting facts wrong does not change anything.

Your experience with the news you DIDN'T see, however places you on an expert platform unavailable to others. You just jocked yourself hard on the seesaw you built.

My ex-husband was addicted to the game.... Observational perspective counts too since I was stuck watching and listening to it in a consistent basis with the one TV we owned

No. My experience with the facts does though. Unless you can point to any court case that claims the Hot Coffee mod was responsible for a crime, either in defense or prosecution, then your post has nothing to do with the original question. The news getting the facts wrong does not change anything. You are talking about news programs from years ago as if you do not have the ability to get the actual facts. Saying that people were outraged by the Hot Coffee mod is absolutely true. People get outraged by any number of random things that they either do not understand or do not like. No one connected it to any specific crime though.

Your making arguments that cancel your own position out. You're allowed but it seems foolhardy

So did your husband become a prostitute murdering gang member who was then prosecuted and used GTA as his defense? Then you might have something.

Hey, how often does continuously insulting someone keep you in the kind of companionship you enjoy online and does that transfer equally as your offline personality or do you play meek, coy and easily frazzled in person

You obviously have zero perception of how you've insulted yourself

I have not once insulted you. I am not even sure why you think I have.

I'm not, it was an ongoing attempt on your part though your too big to admit it

*you're*

If I was going to insult you, I would. Pointing out that you are wrong and that you seem to lack comprehension is not insulting you. It is pointing out facts.

You should really get your team to turn in the old playbook and get a new strategist . Your behavior has become a "Don't" conversationally and they're letting you get laughed at now

It'd be interesting to see the total number of items that were under discussion in this string of comments and have someone list out what was and was not addressed to see how right either one of us was regarding the things we wrote and who brought up what for dissection of value

Really, who cares. Go back and do it if you really want to. Have someone else do it. Hire someone to do it. In the end, you are wrong about the facts and your original response did not have anything to do with the original question. That is all I really care about.

I will wait with great anticipation for someone to come along and tell me I see-sawed lol. It will crush me.
