..in the past six months he's posted a video about sleepovers, belly dancing like a tard, massaging his non existent breasts, storing his frozen semen, and resorted to flat out begging like a child who wants a toy in a store..yea he's really eased back

Maybe he'd at the very least quit begging if people didn't keep sending him free shit.

...But then again, he did lie about someone else buying the PS4 for him to save face, so maybe it's too late at this point.

It's also nice to see he's worked out a way to make money from his infamy although the amiibos he buys to make into Sonichu characters seem quite expensive so hopefully he sells them all and isn't left with a bunch but the medal, pictures and signature were a good idea though, he might be able to make more with his comic if people knew it was a thing that actually will get make, at the moment it seems more like a donation button.

If Chris was more productive with his art (I use that word loosely) he could probably make himself a fair bit of money. He's an internet celebrity and the shit he produces is just...I mean, fuck I don't even know how to describe it. He's a kind of bizarre cult figure, he absolutely could cash in on all this. In some ways he is, but his own laziness keeps getting in the way of him taking advantage of that.

Except by the third time he goes to court he will be accustomed to it, leaving actual punishment as the only thing that can possibly prod him to attempt improving, but he won't receive any because it will be overseen by a third, different, judge who will give him yet another autism card.

Really, if haivng a history of running over someone isn't enough for a judge to take off the kid gloves, then nothing will.

Chris was put in jail for a while, which he hated. And the prospect of serious punishment did seem to really stress him out.

I don't think Chris learned the lesson "Do whatever you want, pay a fine and move on." It was way too involved for that, and I think he is affected by it. As @Marvin said, it's not necessarily that he sees his actions as inherantly wrong, but he has learned that there are certain things he can't do, because doing them will screw him over. It is almost as effective a lesson.

The risk is that he will come up with some new way of screwing up legally. While I don't see a crime spree coming up, Chris is dumb enough and weird enough that some other incident could happen in the next decade or so. And he might well get punished for that.

As an aside, saying that Chris "ran someone over" and "assaulted someone with pepper spray" are not false descriptions, but they do paint a more serious picture than might be warranted. In truth, he bumped someone with his car, and he gave a tiny squirt of pepperspray at someone's midsection. Not that those are acceptable actions in any way, but it is not "getting away with it" if Chris didn't get years in prison for them. Similarly, if Chris gets into another spot of trouble, if the court looks at his previous record, it will reflect a couple brushes with the law, not a life of violent crime.
 
This is what a contempt for "respectability politics" inevitably ends with. Your minority group is represented by fucking lunatics and absolute cretins and people assume these vastly visible people are every one of you.

If you don't want your cause wrecked, you have to fight back against these idiots at some point.

But are you not doing the same thing the opposite way by saying Chris merely "bumped someone with his car" when that person is elderly and the action has broken his limbs? "Bumping" is not entirely serious enough.

More like a dog learning obedience then.

Hold on, the Chandlers broke Michael Snyder's bones?

I figure Snyder -not expecting such an idiotic action- was thrown off balance and fell on his ass, then sensibly decided to go to the hospital, hence the medical bills. It's quite possible for a man of his age to be at risk of a heart attack, and I have no doubt his blood pressure was skyrocketing at this... unadulterated stupidity. You'd have a good argument that people are downplaying this incident if Snyder suffered fractures, but at that point, the prosecution would have simply gone ahead with assault charges and Snyder would have never asked for leniency.

No. At most, he was slightly bruised. They're always going to check that out when it's an auto accident, though, because the shock of it could cause you to fail to notice what turns out to be a severe injury.

I don't know man. I think chris saw the punishment being the looming stress of the trial, and when it ended saw himself vindicated and the result being just to "forget about this mess". Chris thought he could send a belligerent "apology" letter to gamestop, where he basically admitted he's a problem in other stores, but blames it on conspiracies against him. He's far from learned his lesson. He still hasn't paid his fine. He still sees himself as the victim. This wasn't a one off at gamestop.. he's clearly a menace in other stores. Why did best buy know about the pepper spray? either his conspiracy is true or he's made similar threats with it before. I'd have to believe the latter. I agree that if you look at his court incidents individually, it's clear an autist tarded out, we can't send him to jail. The problem is he shows a pattern for this. It's not just a few stores, it's always the stores he frequents. He shows a pattern of pushing is luck until he is banned and then violating those bans. If he's smart enough to leave before an incident occurs, he doesn't get arrested, but we've seen him now get arrested 3 times for his bullshit. He never learns his lesson. He's done tons of stuff in other stores too to prove he's a menace. it's almost as if he shouldn't be allowed in stores unsupervised.

I did not know that, it just sounded broken since there was a hospital bill big enough to be part of the court case.

Still, I stand by what I said, there is no "bumping someone" with a goddamn car. It's a goddamn car. 2 tons don't need to move fast to send you flying.
 
It seems like the only times when Chris "Gets better" are when he's able to get back into his comfort zone, and when he gets back into his comfort zone he gets VERY smug, at least until life pulls the rug out from under him again.

In a perfect world, every tard would have a tard wrangler.

Though, actually, in a perfect world, we wouldn't have tards in the first place.

I mean that's unrealistic, but his bans are most likely well founded and too bad for him. He caused them to happen.

He definitely buttered his bed there.

Yea sadly Chris fall's through the cracks, he's annoying to any business he's likely to interact with and more of a minor and bemusing pain in the arse at time but he's not massively disruptive (a few incidents asside) and while he looks and act's odd he's not self destructive or liable to chimp out at the drop of a hat, so he doesn't get the supervision he need's.

I am starting to wonder given the cows I watch with any seriousness who is the one that does need supervision and Chris is in the top 3 but not the very top.
