Jack Thompson is a no name lawyer trying to make a name for himself...and he has. He's one of the most hated people in the gaming industry...hes even got himself some death threats! He needs to be stopped one way or another...

I spoke about this much too much.
He sucks.
And I didnt pick anything on the pole. Where is "He doesn't know what he's talking about"?

Jack Thompson is the blabbering retard who goes around spurring out bullshiz "facts" about things that are hardly related to video game related and making parents and humans alike around the world, IDIOTS. There was a segment on WBCN talking about how Video Game is the new drug because people "zone out" other family members when playing games. Guys I don't think you understand, that's what we call a loser with no friends, not a gamer. When I play Prince of Persia I don't not talk to my family because I'm too addicted to the game, I don't talk to them because they're horrible parents but that's a different story.
Games help more then they hurt. How many semi video game related deaths are tehre? 12? OH MY GOD. 12 PEOPLE HAVE DIED OVER THE COURSE OF THIS 20 YEAR LONG TREND. CALL THE FBI!! It's really annoying how people like Jack Thompson are trying there hardest to get video games banned to get attention while drugs is STILL a problem and illegal firearm buying, underage... ANYTHING. Drinking and Driving all of which kill over 2 million people a year. It's a good thing people know there priorties and shut out the thing that might make people a little less social. Good job america you're all idiots.
I think the defention of "Irony" would be redifned if Jacko's son killed his dad. Because he thought it'd be fun to renact something he saw in a video game.

Well, movies contain violence too, so let's ban them while were at it.

That's a very common thing to say but I know thompson's arguement so much he'd say:
"It's not the same, video games have you interact with the massacure of innocent people with games like GTA"
However in movies when people die it's normally the very good cop killing the rapist because he had a hostage. Not just mindlessly killing and having that be the protagnist or "good guy". Which is true to an extenet, but the idea that this somehow teaches me how to shoot down hundreds of people, how to reload a gun, shoot it, hold it, is retarded.
