Today, this guy was caught between some protesters and counter-protesters.

I'd love to replace his placcard with another placcard that says something else while he's distracted

Might teach him a lesson not to play silly games in the middle of a protest!

Life does not stop because of a protest! Game may be silly to some but it's his way of chilling etc. Try not to judge people i would say.

And what's serious to you is silly to others.

There are a great many things we can do in this life and if that's how he chooses to spend his time, so be it.

If I remember rightly you're working on some propulsion theory. To many, that's a Sisyphean task and probably silly, but you do it anyway.

Not everyone's the same. We all find joy and relaxation in different ways and if someone's joy and relaxation comes from enjoying a video game whilst getting in some exercise too, so be it.

Why would you like to do that? Why would you even think that? See, that is what is wrong with society. The man just wants to be left alone, but somebody is thinking to steal his peace. He is a grown man and not bothering anybody. It is his own prerogative if he wants to play a "silly" game.

It wasn't the game that I find silly but playing in a potentially dangerous spot.

People have been killed or seriously injured playing that game in a dangerous spot like a busy street

Are the girl with the backpack and the baby in the buggy protestors or counterprotestors?

Girl's protester, baby's counter-protester. So sad when families get split over these things

And changing his sign to “teach him a lesson” makes him safer?

 

[Trogdor the Burninator]

Possibly relevant....

My friend thought there must have been an accident or something when there were 3 cop cars parked together just up the street from us... no, they were all raiding a gym together

I'm surprised nobody saw the humor in my post.

If you guys ever watched Looney Tunes cartoons they did the placard re-write thing.

 

[mark kennedy]

I'd like to spray him with silly string.

I'd like to dance circles around him like this:

It's rather silly for a grown man to consider Pokemon Go something serious.

I think the world could do with a lot more sillyness.

No sillier than any other hobby. At least he's out getting exercise

In a world dividing itself over religion, race, politics, social status, economic standing or even opinions on social matters like access to healthcare... how a man chooses to spend his spare time that isn't hurting anyone is not really something worth focusing on, imo.

I know a few parents who use the game to connect with their kids, taking long walks with their children while the kids play and eventually the parents start to play and have another way to connect with their kids. Doing stuff with your children seems pretty serious to me.
