Jack Thompson being investigated

[CptStern]

Heres Yack responce to the FBA:


"gamer idiot" and "pixelante" hu?

Truly pathetic, Yack... truly...

he'd sound a lot more convincing if hadnt threatened the Bar with retaliation should they conduct an investigation ..not to mention that he repeatedly refered to PA and gamers in general as morons and idiots

 

[The Mullinator]

Well the shirt and the death threats would be ignored by any legitimate group since after all he is a public figure. You don't see George Bush getting all pissy about the hundreds of death threats and t-shirst made about him every day. As long as the bar association keeps getting bombarded with complaints and calls they will at least take this whole thing seriously rather than just sweeping it off to the side and ignoring it.

By the way www.floridabar.org if you want to contact and help persuade them. Just don't be a moron... That means keep it civil.

Wow, even in his own letters to the Bar he's just as much of a dick as he is in real life. He should know, by now, that lawyers aren't supposed to speak like that. He's not even trying to put on an air of civility/professionalism. I'd like to see what happens if he's his regular senile, vulgar, insulting, petty self during a trial. Hopefully, the judge would be sensible to either kick him out or hold him in contempt of court. Surely, the Bar won't stand for having themselves associated with this kind of behavior. Every claim in those Anti-Jack letters can be validated. That idiot should know not to be such a douchebag... in writing.

He's obviously going to get away with it. ALL of us lawyers get away with it, but the "it" changes based on context.

I think we should make a jack thompson mania!

he deserve it for be a idiot

 

[TheSomeone]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Nice work, idiots who sent him death threats.

Yea seriously.


Still, it's interesting that he mentions "fake news story" without actually saying what it was and how it was fake ( it wasn't).

Also, there are tens of millions of gamers out there, he only mentioned what, 4 or 5 cases?

Wha? Death threats? How was this orchestrated by Penny-arcade, exactly? They just said that they had been insulted over the telephone, blah blah blah, Jack Thompson isn't really cool. = crimminal harrassment, telling fans to 'CUT OF JACK THOMPSON'S BALLS!!!!!'. As if.

He is displaying crimminal idiocy.

 

[Greatgat]

Actually, I rather agree with a post made by the Penny Arcade's owners on their main page that essentially said they do not see a possible removal of Jack Thompson as such a good thing.

Gabe Says:

Jack is not special. He is not a unique snow flake as they say. He is just the latest vocal opponent of whatever is "corrupting" our youth at the moment. When my dad was growing up it was rock and roll devil music. Then it was comic books then movies and rap music. Today it’s videogames. If we were to succeed in getting Jack blacklisted from the major news outlets someone else would simply take his place. Imagine him as an actor playing a part in a play. The point is that Jack Thompson is not important. If he were to be fired a new actor would simply take up the role. The same lines would still be delivered in the same way and the same audience would pay to see it. We are actually fortunate that the current actor is so impotent in his role. Imagine what might happen if some charming, efficacious attorney took his place. The more I consider it the more I think we may be lucky to have Jack playing the part of the alarmist. The alternative might be someone who is actually capable.

^^^ I have to agree with that also, which is why...
