Like blackmail except instead of the threat being leaking information or whatever, the threat is violence, theft, and other physical crimes.

Will this law work tho?
I mean that if you would actually try to extort, it would break some rules but I'm not sure, I can't imagine a scenario where extortion can be used on perp, and can it be done without a reason or did the person have to hurt you or something

I've gone up to bases and told them to pay me in exchange for not raiding them a number of times

Oh okay makes sense, but any other cases where this could work?
Like idk, if you're selling the same guns as me for cheaper and you wont change the price, I'll stab you? lol

Because raiding is a bit like too extreme, I'm wondering if you could use this more mildy

This isn’t a realistic action though?
You don’t see Tesco CEO shanking the Asda CEO because they are selling cheaper bannanas
