he sent this email that was clearly not for public eyes ..it calls for the County attorney to look into charges that Best Buy and Target willfully engage in criminal behaviour for selling GTA:SA ...despite the fact that there is NO nude material in the retail version of the game. He even suggest he coached Hilary Clinton before her press conference yesterday
Here's the entire email
July 14, 2005
The Honorable Amy Klobuchar
Hennepin County Attorney
C-2000 Government Center
Minneapolis, Minnesota Via Fax to 612-348-9712
The Honorable Mike Hatch
Attorney General of the State of Minnesota
St. Paul, Minnesota Via Fax to 651-282-2155
Re: Probable Criminal Sale of Sexual Material Harmful to Minors by Best Buy
and Target in Hennepin County in Violation of Minnesota Statute 617.291, et
sequitur
Dear Ms. Klobuchar and Mr. Hatch:
Recently I had the distinct pleasure of meeting personally with two fine
lawyers in the Hennepin County Attorney’s office regarding the distribution
of violent, mature-rated video games to minors. I appreciate that
opportunity.
My wife, who is also a lawyer, is from the Twin Cities area and a graduate
of St. Olaf College. I have spent many wonderful days in your community
over the past thirty years. Unfortunately, I was sitting in the old
Bloomington stadium with my future father-in-law when Drew Pearson committed offensive interference to catch Roger Staubach’s “Hail Mary” pass in the 1975 NFC title game.
I write to inform you of a flagrant breach of the rules far more
consequential. It involves the knowing theft of the innocence of hundreds
of thousands of children in the Twin Cities and around the country by two
Hennepin County, Minnesota corporations-Target and Best Buy.
I spent time this week working with U.S. Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s
office which effort culminated in her nationally-reported news conference
today from our nation’s capital. Senator Clinton decried the ongoing
distribution across the nation of a violent video game entitled Grand Theft
Auto: San Andreas, which sales are resulting in the viewing of sexually
explicit material by minors.
Given the facts, which are too numerous to relate here, it would appear that
there is probable cause that Best Buy and Target are at their highest
corporate levels involved in the criminal distribution and/or conspiracy to
distribute sexual material harmful to minors in violation of Minnesota
Statute 617.291 et sequitur.
As you both know, your respective offices have certain injunctive remedies
available to you under that statute, in addition to straightforward criminal
prosecutions of the companies and their corporate officers.
I encourage you both to proceed on this urgent matter immediately. I and
others can provide sworn testimony to any grand jury before whom you might
choose to bring this disturbing matter.
Finally, I have urged both Best Buy’s and Target’s CEO’s, Mr. Anderson and
Mr. Ulrich, to stop this activity, and they refuse. Please enjoin them or
indict them or do both.
Regards, Jack Thompson
what a moron! apparently he's not much of a computer user ...which proves he's never played GTA:SA
btw the mod maker behind Hot Coffee released a statement yesterday:
After reading various discussion about this mod around the internet, I would like to make the following statement:
All the contents of this mod was already available on the original disks. Therefor the scriptcode, the models, the animations and the dialogs by the original voice-actors were all created by RockStar. The only thing I had to do to enable the mini-games was toggling a single bit in the main.scm file. (Of course it was not easy to find the correct bit). The Nude models that are used as a bonus in the Quick action version of the mod, were also already present on the original disk.
But all this material is completely inaccesible in an unmodded version of the game. It can therefor not be considered a cheat, easter-egg or hidden feature. But is most probably just leftover material from a gameplay idea that didn't make the final release. I would really like to stress that this material is only accessible after willfully applying the hot coffee mod (or something similar) to the game.
