Armed robbers have used "lures" to attract victims.
Pokemon appear in places like: middle of a busy street, back alleys in dangerous neighborhoods, behind fences on secure government buildings, in peoples' back yards. Only a matter of time before that becomes tragic.
I did hear about that but that mindset is kind of cynical. Maybe we should just sit in front of our TV's all day instead. Much safer.
Kids can be encouraged to go outside without also being encouraged to walk into dangerous or illegal areas.
No. But Pokeman doesn't interest me. But the concept is intriguing and I might be into it with a different theme. I like geocaching and this does seem to have some similarities.
But this had me laughing so hard.
I've watched it like 5 times still laughing my ass off over it.
Most places (pokestops) in the game aren't really illegal or dangerous. They're places of interest. Parks, schools, churches etc. If there are dangerous areas then our focus should be on making them less dangerous, rather than admonishing people for going there (or the reasons they go there). And I've yet to see something quite as effective as getting people (it's far more than just kids) out and about:

It was, now there's an app you can put on your phone which uses the GPS and you have to physically go around town and find them... or something like that.
It started out as a video game, and then once it got bigger it also became a card game and a TV Show as well.
So people are hiding pictures of these things around town and people are trying to find them?

Oh and someone went to the Westboro Baptist Church which is a 'gym' (preset places you can claim with your pokemon) and claimed it with a fairy type pokemon named 'loveislove' :mrgreen:
This is what its aiming to become, some features (local battles, trading) not yet implemented:
I saw that before. I LOL'ed.
