      “And so if you drive off and you hit one of these people, that’s their fault for impinging on you.”

      He continued, “You get 20 points for adult males, 30 points for adult females, and 50 points for children. Points can be redeemed for ‘DesantisBucks’ once you reach 500 points or more.”

      EDIT: a word

            The whole “hitting pedestrians is worth points” trope originated from Death Race 2000, I think. Still, yeah! Weird old movie.

        God damn, I managed to eat an onion on a /c/nottheonion comment… I rushed over the article to find where that quote was from, only to feel dumber and dumber as it dawned on me that it is, in fact, way past bedtime.
