So when they stay home all day playing you guys B---- about it! Now they are out walking all day all around town, same!!!
Old Farts in Power.....

both my kids (30 & 33) got pokemon 2 days ago. My daughter is a dental hygienist in a big clinic. Her and 3 dentists were running around on their lunch break tracking down the pokemon critters. She says they all have those fitbits and they got in great exercise without even knowing it.

This is what happens when you don't hunt! ... your brain goes to mush!

I don't think anyone said they shouldn't be out walking around enjoying their hobby. However, their hobby doesn't suspend the law or shouldn't override common sense which seems to be what a lot of these incidents are.

But a lot of negativity! Just like "Any" hobbies (particularly hunting), these things happen... Part of life!

Of the total number of people playing Pokemon Go, how many are doing senseless or illegal things?

Probably higher then the DUI number

Good question. But the game has been out for a very limited time (at most 14 days) and there are a good number of reports about careless acts (illegal or senseless) with the use of this app. There has been a few notable incidents in the media. How many incidents are we not hearing about or even being noted as a problem?

At the end of the day, this hobby is a hobby and the enthusiasts must make sure they conduct themselves in a lawful and safe manner when indulging themselves in their "vice" (and we all have our "vices").
