[stinkyguy666]

[data]

That's wholesome. Wish every cop could be like this.

 

[Mifec]

Good thing they didn't get shot.

 

[Ryan_MSF]

Attempt at humour didn't go over well - noted

 

[NotLiquid]

Smash is truly one of a kind

 

[JusDoIt]

[Mifec]

Hey man

That ain't falco

A police news story in America with a wholesome ending is always welcome, video games or no.

ain't like they pulled detectives off a murder case to check in here. If they're just beat cops, getting to know the community is a good use of time between calls.

If there's an argument for more black folks entering the force, this would be it- the ability to actually reach out to marginalized folks with more than a gun barrel.

Amen.

Settle racism in Smash

You're totally that guy.

And then people say you can not live magical moments in a fighting game

 

[Dark Cloud]

Now we know how we can unite the country. Smash brings everyone together.

 

[ScreamingMadden]

That's pretty dang funny.

 

[Daniel Westlake]

Just glad they didn't get shot over playing fucking Smash Bros.

 

[BlackJace]

Settle it in court Smash

Community outreach is definitely a good use of police resources.

 

[Overture]

That's awesome.

It most certainly is. I know several cops and building trust with your local community is imperative especially considering what the alternative can be, and most often is.

 

[kirby_fox]

Good it ended well.

I wonder how many others got the cops called for Smash. Some of the guys I had over were getting loud, I'm just glad my neighbors go out on the weekends.

 

[FusedAtoms]

The last part in that article legit warmed my heart but is also sad that shit like that needs to be said . Good story all around

It's a better way for them to know and connect to the community.

 

[Deleted member 3010]

I love me some feel good stories like that. :)

This is the first thing I thought too.

"Yeah chief, this is going to take a while. We have a case of an incomplete character roster."

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

Great to hear a story about US cops getting called that doesn't end in completely vile and unnecessary police brutality and/or a black person dead.

 

[Tregard]

Cops using the Gamecube controllers too, respect.

 

[Dodongo]

haha, even cops can't resist the call of smash

 

[Deleted member 2254]

"Open up, this is the police. There is only one way this can end: no items, Fox only, Final Destination."

 

[Oneself]

This is cool. It's sad to read so many bad things about the police when most of the time their job is to protect and help ... and endure shitty people.

 

[Platy]

Settle it in court Smash

I am impressed how long it took

 

[aSqueakyLime]

wholesome

 

[Deleted member 33190]

So basically they settled it in Smash ;p

Police academy trains them how to use a taser in and out of game.

Smash is the key to world peace
