The Pinkertons are after Rockstar Games...

I have a plan, but we need more muneh, Arthur!
Let me get the Red Dead Redemption 2 memes iut of the way, boah! Lumbago! Lenny! Leeeeennay! Has anyome seen Gavin? Tahiti...

Well, the real life Pinkertons are suing Rockstar due to Red Dead Redemption 2.
Something something Red Dead Redemption 2 defamation of the Pinkertons something... it's not like the Agency at the time setting of the RDR games didn't behave like a bunch of government endorsed goons that infiltrated unions to destroy them, or hire thugs to intimidate workers... or killing the 8-year old brother of an Outlaw and maiming their mother...
The shady behavior is on the history books, Pinkertons. Rockstar paints your agency as less evil than the real world version. Not to mention the obvious part of RDR series having stories told FROM THE CRIMINALS' POINT OF VIEW. To a Criminal, Law enforcement agencies are the bad guys.

The MODERN Pinkerton Agency is looking WORSE after this lawsuit, because they are looking like they're shaking up Rockstar for "protection money". Why aren't they going after other movie, song, game companies that have used their name? Seriously, the Pinkerton website has a scrubbed version of their history. Especially the lack of an entry on Homestead Strike or any other unsavory elements of their past shows that their interests are money related.

Besides, the Modern version of the Agency doesn't behave like it did in the 1800s... oh wait... this lawsuit is making them look lile the same thugs they claim they are not... This is as ridiculous as the US Government suing the makers of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter...
