Chess players are always the bad guys.

Watched Bones tonight. Though the detective played chess but was not active, the bad guy was the strongest chess player, all the other chess playing characters were all socially awkward, weird, creepy, whoremongering, sociopaths.

Chess players are all to often portrayed negatively as evil, sinister, malicious, selfish and mad (as in crazy not angry).
Sounds like most of the chess players that I've known in real life. What's your point?

How can playing a game of chess be a crime against the nation?
If Fischer arm-wrestled his opponent instead of playing chess would it have been criminal?
If he had a hotdog eating contest against his opponent would it have been a crime?
