So much for an attempted boycott to dry up demand.
It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

apparently Hasbro, owner of Parker Brothers, publishers of Monopoly, is suing the producers of Ghettopoly for trademark violations. Apparenly in addition to publishing a vile, racist game, they also neglected to get permission from Hasbro before ripping off their classic.

Go to jail, do not pass go, and do not collect £200. Instead, face huge phat legal expenses and copyright damages.

So if its say a london version, i got no problem with pass go collect 200 Sterling - or even pass go collect 200 euros 
- I was thinking that like here, you have a standard version that keeps the original Atlantic City names, but that the currency is localized. Now THAT would be a travesty i think.
