Wait! I have a get out of jail free card!
Mich. man jailed for assault during Monopoly game

FRASER, Mich. -A game of Monopoly has landed a Michigan man in jail. WDIV-TV reported a 54-year-old man was playing the board game Saturday night with a female friend when he tried to buy Park Place and Boardwalk from her.
When she refused, Fraser police Lt. Dan Kolke told WWJ-AM he hit her in the head, breaking her glasses.
The man was arrested and charged with misdemeanor assault and battery.
Well I hate to make a snap judgement when I don't have all the facts but I think I'm going to have to side with the perpetrator here. Violence to women is always wrong but if there ever was an exception I'm looking at it. In this economy it's a buyer's market, board game or not. If this guy made a reasonable offer she should have completed the sale. It's economics.
