Mr. Jack Thompson, the man we all love to hate. The #1 monkey on the back of the gaming community.
Perhaps hate is a bit strong, but he is not much liked to say the least. The anti-violence in video games crusader whom spent so much of his time and energy doing his best to get games like GTA banned has rubbed many of us gamers the wrong way. Not so much because he wants to protect children as he implies as his main concern, but because many of us feel he actualy looked at the video game industry as a bottomless pit of cash that he hoped to profit off of and also to get his face all over the media and make a name for himself , the later he was actually somewhat successful.
Well we have not heard much about old Jacky T. in a while, So whats he been up to lately.
Well last year Mr. Thompson got Permanently disbared from practicing law in the state of Florida after he was found abusing the system with his crazy lawsuits and antics.
Now the courts are taking it a step further with proceedings to possibly bar Jack from practicing law in any federal court. The court has ordered Jack to defend his right to continue practicing law.
Thompson must now give the court good reason not to kick him out of federal courts for the rest of his life.
Jack now feels like he is under attack unfairly and accuses the court of placing him on a "Terrorist Watch List" when US Marshals payed him a visit after he sent a letter to a Judge with the following text
"We find yesterday that enemy combatants at Guantanamo are to get more due process from federal judges than what I am to have. I guess my 'mistake' was not killing 3,000 people to make my point ..."
He also wrote "If I get sent to Gitmo as a 'terrorist,' then please send the stuff there. I'll be facing Tallahassee in prayer several times a day as required."
It was exactly these kinds of antics and outbursts that got him in all this trouble in the first place.
It seems Jack is not only an Ace Lawyer but also a major Drama Queen. Jacks plans to get rich quick have back-fired on him big time.
I truly hope that if jack does not get bared that he turn his act around and use that Law education for good and makes a better life for himself. Imagine what he could have accomplished with all the time and effort he wasted attacking the video game developers and retailers.
Note to Jack, Just stating my Opinions jack, Please do not sue me.
