A game played by lawbreakers wherein a large cash sum may be awarded after winning or, more commonly, settling a lawsuit against the city due to supposedly unjustifiable police action. Sums are awarded either to 'victims' or their grossly dysfunctional relatives, and typically spent frivolously within a short space of time on unnecessary goods.
How to enter:
1) Do not behave like a civilized human being
2) Do not co-operate with law enforcement under any circumstances
3) To the greatest extent possible, provoke the police into detaining or arresting
3) Resist detainment/arrest; claim it to be unlawful
4) Sustain fatal or serious injury (relatives of the deceased shall enter the lottery)
5) When contacted by toxic 'civil
rights' lawyers, agree to
everything
6) Tell the
media that you "didn't do nothing" (or that your relative was "a good
kid")
Please note: Entry into the ghetto lottery is possible only in cities with
corrupt and extremely liberal district attorneys, judges, etc.
- Quantavius Williams, 21, was
shot and killed by police after reaching into his waistband while fleeing on foot following a dangerous high-speed vehicle pursuit. The City of
Atlanta awarded his relatives $500,000 after settling a wrong
death lawsuit.
- Markeesha Jones, 49, was detained after she refused to identify herself to police during a burglary investigation. Jones' attorneys claim that her civil rights were violated because the police had no reasonable suspicion to question her. The City of San Fransisco was ordered to award $8.5m to Markeesha and her daughter, Mo'nique.

Connor Blackwell, 31, was arrested for leaving the scene of an accident and disorderly conduct, but was pronounced deceased after suffering a heart attack while in custody. Toxicology reports state that Smith, a felon with extensive criminal
history, had acute levels of cocaine in his system. Bodycam footage also shows Smith resisting arrest for more than eight minutes before finally being handcuffed. Police and paramedics on scene were facing charges of negligent homicide, but they were dropped. The family'
s legal representatives say they want
justice, and the City of Columbus is now facing a $5m wrongful
death lawsuit.
Contrary to popular belief, the ghetto lottery can be won by any individual regardless of
race or ethnicity. As
long as you have contempt for law and order, your ticket can be secured.
