Carlson - I've got to take you to task here too. The only thing childish is the quote. Video games or those who enjoy them come from all walks of life, and just because you don't partake does not make them childish. This type of mentality to me feels much the same as those in the Anti-2A group that equate all gun owners as gun nuts because they don't like guns so why should anyone else.

Apples to oranges. We will agree to disagree. I have personally seen the damage done by the adolescents. I have spoken to several Law Enforcment administrators of the problems they cause in there Cities and Counties.

Anyone is allowed to stick their head in the sand if they so choose. Those who do are usually attached to the "game."

Reading the thread I am thankful I am not the only one who sees this as a nuisance and sometimes criminal.

I have said all I need to on this subject.

I know just leave them alone they are innocent folks just having fun.
Again, are we, the 2A crowd really going to be throwing stones at an activity that has an occasional bad apple? Really? The 2A would be gone by lunch tomorrow if out of millions of users we only had to focus on a few folks that are probably idiots no matter what activity they take up. As posted further up in the thread a gun owner killed a Pokemon Go player. Compared to a fence, that isn't even close. I guess we should also leave those innocent gun owners alone too. They're just having fun.

Angry about a fence and the desecration of a cemetery, 100% valid. Throwing an entire group of folks under the bus for the actions of a few? Seems like a tactic I've seen used a lot by the other side. Prior to this thread I would have hoped that we collectively would have been above that. But alas, it seems to keep coming up.
There has been more than just a fence. There have been injury's, thefts, deaths, robberies, etc... Ignore it if you wish, but it is a mounting problem. It may be a "game" to some to others it is "criminal." Property owners have no control over their property being made targets. It boils down to an immature generation that have no control. They have taken their adolescent activities on to others private property.

There is nothing else to be said because it is obvious there are a few (who have never grown up) who just do not respect property, property rights, and in many cases life. It is all about an imaginary character.

There is a way to have your property removed from the game as many have done so I'm my area. We have them coming into our campus late at night playing Pokemon and have yet to encounter a problem. Stop painting everyone playing a game with a negative brush. The actions of a few don't speak for the majority.

Like I said there is nothing else to be said about the childush game. "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."

As far as keeping them busy and out of trouble it has caused a small riot in NY with about 125 players. Someone walked into a helipad and someone else walked on top of a copperhead and was bitten. There is no telling what else has occurred that has not been reported or linked to the adolescent "game."
What else can we ban where occasionally bad things happen? 4 wheelers? Soccer games (at least in Engleand. They riot all the time.)? Firearms? Hiking (more than one species of venomous bites)? We could clean up a lot of activites we don't like, since we aren't doing them.

I don't know what your asking to ban??? Me not wanting it on our parking lot or my front yard is my business not the whole world walking as zombies looking at a phone.

I would like to set a shooting range next door the person who created this mess.

My people who monitor the security cameras nd building during church times have noticed a lot of traffic in and out of our parking lot. It seemed to really pick up last week. Today I was enlightened that our parking lot is an "arena" or area that they can do battle with Pokemon.

This is a big nuisance and I pray they go away. Is there anyway to change this other than praying these "adults" grow up?
