Thompson says Florida Bar requested he get psych test

That's a nice, subtle pic; didn't pick up on it right away.

Jack needs his own reality TV show.

And all the little gaming folk did run from their hiding places and returned to their villages to celebrate the vanquish of the beast that drove them into hiding...

If I were omnipotent....I would send this AssClown to Saudi Arabia dressed in a Burqa with a sign on his chest saying "Men are inferior to Women" I would give it 5 minutes before an angry mob stones him to death or the Police of Virtue and Vice arrest and beat him themselves.

As he sits in his cell recovering from his wounds....I wonder, how will he blame his situation on Videogames?

Allah Akbar Jacky Boy.

Bring on E3!!!

The problem is that he's already undergone one of these tests before and the results game back "normal". Of course my source is his wikipedia entry so the margin of error is pretty high.

Jack Thompson you are scum of the earth buddy do everyone incuding yourself a favor, hang your self with barbed wire.

Good old Jackoff news, filling our otherwise useful headlines.

@ GodisaMyth (#3)
Holy shit- he's not the only one in need of a psych test. Even if you don't agree with him, that's quite a psychopathic fantasy.

I wish she would request he recieve a body cavity search as well.

no amount of medication will make him realize that his stupid little vendetta with video-games is both pointless and futile



hes lonely and bored, theres no cure for that ( none that jack will ever achieve....)

were just gonna here his crap till he dies, and unless he writes another book that will be the end of it

I can understand a man with convictions but not obsessions. Over the years, the things he has done, has made me question his sanity. Especially his proposal for that video game. Even when he backed down from that infamous issue (and dared to even claim they broke the rules and were offended when Gabe & Tycho made the donation in his name). But the fact that he keeps coming back and saying shit like God is on his side or turning this into a Holy War (most people opposed to him in the past have been referred to as godless by him) just makes me reach a level of pity for him.

He's a sad, sad man and I know what he suffers from. Carpathian Kitten loss... he's lost his kitten.

"Holy shit- he's not the only one in need of a psych test. Even if you don't agree with him, that's quite a psychopathic fantasy."

That is not a fantasy, the dehumanization and abuse of women in Saudi Arabia happens every day. My point was that there are alot more important things for him to get mad about then to worry who plays what Videogame.

Having said that I stand by my "psychopathic fantasy" as I would love for him to see 1st hand what censorship and the daily erosion of our freedoms could lead to.

This country is heading into an abyss of a theocracy and oligarchy under the veil of "protecting our citizens" and it saddens me that most of us do not see it.

Get bent JackAss Thompson.

Bring on E3!!!

heading?? dont you mean already there?? been there for a while, or inevitable?? and id say that more than half of this generation see's it, when the people who are 17-24 now are adults i have hope for changes

but in this situation actually im pretty proud of our government body in the way they have handled this, they seem to understand what videogames are and are not being scared in to jack thompsons crap like he scares all the single parents into thinking that there kids will go from perfectly normal to psycho killers by touching an xbox

he uses fear to get what he wants, whats the word for that again....

"This country is heading into an abyss of a theocracy and oligarchy under the veil of "protecting our citizens" and it saddens me that most of us do not see it."


Well thank god there are atheists posting on video game blogs who really GET it.

One day JT (the lawyer, not me) is going to go on a violent rampage. After the murder-suicide, the FBI will search his apartment and find copies of Counter Strike, Bully, Manhunt 2, and Thrill Kill

The universe will implode with irony.

@GodisaMyth(12):

I'd mod you up if I could.

@mo(13):
"they seem to understand what videogames are..."
As much as I love them, what they are is an effective distraction to placate the masses--just like every other form of entertainment. I think they understand that.

"Well thank god there are atheists posting on video game blogs who really GET it."

That is a pretty careless comment there bub. What does my being Atheist have anything to do with what I said? I have many friends who believe in a God or Gods one way or another and they do not like the direction our country is headed in anymore than I do.

What are you implying....that I think I a better than you? It is my opinion that most of this countries citizens do not think for themselves, rather they do or like what the majority of their peers like or do. Ever heard of a fad? (Wee anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller...Bueller.

"heading?? don't you mean already there?? been there for a while, or inevitable?? and id say that more than half of this generation see's it, when the people who are 17-24 now are adults i have hope for changes"

Mo, I hope you are right about the young adults. If you look at the past this country has swung back and forth like a pendulum between the right and left...unfortunately for me at least it is currently swinging further and further to the right. The one hope that I have is that it swings so far to the right that when it gets to it apex it will swing quickly back to the left and keep going for a while.

Die Jacky boy die....you go to hell and you die! (Cartman)

Bring on E3!!!

@12: This IS an American lawyer we're talking about... If you asked him if could name the capitals of 5 other countries other than the countries in the UK, France, Germany and Itally, I would be so damn surprised if he could tell me 2.

i knew violent video games made you crazy, i knew it. and then everyone will now realize the m. night shamalamanaman twist ending to this situation is jack being the one who is the most crazy.

I like that he offered this information up freely.

This is just more free publicity for Jack because he knows we'll comment on it.

Jerusalem, Beijing, Tokyo, Mexico City, Baghdad off the top of my head. Oh funny, NONE of them are in Europe.

Seriously, what the hell is so many of the people that post on these websites? OMG AMERIKANS ARE STUPID DURRRRR. I will assume that you're European, because of your anti-Americanism and because of the fact that all the excluded capitols originate in Europe, when any non-European would have put major Eastern countries on their list. Seriously, Italy over China? Your European post secondary education is a JOKE in American institutions. Your Ph.D. is about as good as a Master's degree is here. In the medical field, there's a derogatory acronym given to doctors who don't know their field: FMG (foreign medical graduate). Sure, there are a lot of stupid people in America. You know what? I haven't ran into that many smart Europeans living stateside either. And judging from the fact that we got most of our God-awful reality television from Europe, I doubt there are that many intelligent people living in Europe either. But, at least you European have your vaunted geographic knowledge of the European area, which you manage to bring up in every single goddamn topic, no matter how unrelated it is. God, we should have let you guys rot under Hitler. Wouldn't have changed you guys that much, just how you dress slightly. Still have the blind hatred of everything that isn't European. You had your time 300 years ago, and history's passed you over to the "barbarians" in the Middle East, China, India, Japan, Russia, and the States. South America too, if they ever get their act together. You are no longer relevant, besides as a tourist attraction. Get over it.

"unfortunately for me at least it is currently swinging further and further to the right"

Since I'm firmly in the middle and will always be I think I should point out that you're looking in a mirror. This country is as "left" as it has ever been compared to the rest of the world.

RE: 19

Haha! That was great!

i'm skeptical about the validity of this,
I mean think about it; a lawyer sending info to a news sources of his enemies... questioning his credibility?

i doubt that any lawyer, who still wants to practice, would willingly present this to anyone, let alone a news site.

redneckvampire,

Are you kidding me? Did you miss the supreme court decisions last week? Do you realize that we're going to have a court that leans right by AT LEAST 5-4 for the next 20 years? Do you realize that the next 2 judges to go will be from the liberal side? If nothing else brings home what 2 terms of Bush has done to this country, that should.

No my friend, the general populous may be moving left (as areaction to Bush's various disasters), but the people who rule on constitutional issues are as conservative as they've been in a long time. That's what 2000 and 2004 were really about, and that's why I'm going to be depressed for the forseeable future.

@ ssuk (#18):

So what, exactly, are you implying?

Ok John I'll give you that. However the general populous is what the rest of the world sees when looking at the US. Maybe the president too, but not a couple of judges.

Well said John.

King Dubya is the worst President/criminal that we have ever had.

1st President to attack a sovereign nation without provocation AND fabricating evidence.

Consistently beats back any progress we make with stem-cell research.

Turned the Justice Department into the UnJustice Department.

Thinks there is more than one Internet.

Waves at blind people.

Looks thru binoculars the wrong way with the lenses closed.

Tries to escape questions he does not want to answer by attempting to open a prop door.

Tells the terrorists to "bring it on" after he says "mission accomplished"

Calls other contries "evil doers"

Let's big buisiness break more laws and lets them make huge profits off of War.

All Clinton did was get alittle nookie in the Oval Office and he gets Impeached.

King Dubya kills more of our freedoms on a daily basis and is responsible for the death of thousands of US soldiers fighting in his Wars.


Sory for the kinda off topic rant but I dispise King Dubya as much as I dispise Osama or Ahmadinijad or Kim Jong Ill or JackAss Thompson.

Bring on E3!!!

Right in left in this country is a false dichotomy. The only distinction seems to be the lip-service given to non-issues such as gay marriage or abortion. Whether or not these "issues" should be the domain of the government is never even discussed. True conservatives believe in limited spending and limited government--and they no longer exist in this country. Both major parties believe in large government, limiting the rights of the people, and increased spending.

Dave,

you are correct.

I call them Republicrats. It is amazing how much time and money is wasted on non-issues like gay marrige. So what if 2 men or women want to marry. Who cares?

@25 Rare Hare

I'm pretty sure ssuk meant that most of the American populous is far too worried about their own problems and their own "greatness" to even care about knowing about the rest of the world. The last time I was in the States (from Canada), people from Boston asked if I could handle Boston weather (I guess they don't realise we're north of them), and people from Vegas were convinced that we had snow and icy roads year round. And we're freaking neighbours!

@GodisaMyth:
I almost had faith in you. For a second there, I thought you could go through an entire post without making a jab at Wii. You are clearly an intelligent fellow, but you still have some sort of childish insecurity about Wii. 'Tis a shame.

"King Dubya is the worst President/criminal that we have ever had."
He's definitely been a bad president, but worst? Nah.

"Thinks there is more than one Internet."
I thought the whole "Internets" joke was from Sen. Ted Stevens?

"All Clinton did was get alittle nookie in the Oval Office and he gets Impeached."
He was impeached, yes, but he wasn't removed from office. Aside from his questionable personal life (then again, aren't many men just horny bastards?), he was quite a good president.

"Die Jacky boy die....you go to hell and you die! (Cartman)"
Actually, I believe that quote was said by Mr. Garrison.


To be honest... I'm surprised the Florida Bar hadn't questioned JT's sanity sooner. This man is on an rampage against all video games, and who knows why.

Maybe he could never pass the first wave of Space Invaders...

"I'm pretty sure ssuk meant that most of the American populous is far too worried about their own problems and their own "greatness" to even care about knowing about the rest of the world.

I think it has more to do with American ignorance than anything else. 1/4 of high school students cannot even point out on a map where the United States is.

"27. ...but I dispise King Dubya as much as I dispise Osama or Ahmadinijad or Kim Jong Ill or JackAss Thompson."

Wow. If you mean that seriously, that's the stupidest thing I've heard in some time. I try not to get into political discussions, when you start claiming that Bush (or Jack, for that matter) is as bad as someone like Kim Jong-il or Osama bin Laden, it's pretty obvious that you need a serious reality check.

Sorry, that's "discussions, *but* when".

And on topic, I like how almost every statement released by Jack seems to have some kind of typo in it. He really needs to learn how to proofread, or at least hire a decent editor.

"Wow. If you mean that seriously, that's the stupidest thing I've heard in some time.

If Dubya grew up in those countries...yes, I believe he would be like them, and visa versa. Environment has alot to do with how a person thinks and acts.

A fundy is a fundy. It does not matter where they are from.

If we were to go back in time...I think Jack would be right there clapping as another "witch" burned at the stake.

The only reason the US has been leaning to the right is because Bush's "legacy" has been forcing it that way.

Most polls show that most Americans identify themselves as independents, not Dems or Repubs, the only problem is most of those independents consistently vote one or the other, because there really is no other choice.

Democrats and Republicans have both passed laws that make it virtually impossible for 3rd parties and independents to get on the ballet. This limits us to the "lesser of two evils" which, one way or the other, still leaves us with evil.

Until the people wake up and realize neither party is ever going to willingly do anything for them, nothing is going to change.

"I almost had faith in you. For a second there, I thought you could go through an entire post without making a jab at Wii. You are clearly an intelligent fellow, but you still have some sort of childish insecurity about Wii. 'Tis a shame."

I know, I think it's a form of Tourettes. I cannot go more than a die Plumber die (oops, did it again) couple of sentences without saying something about the Wee.

I do not care if is popular. I would still say the same things even if it was not.

Thank you for correcting me about the Mr. Garrison quote. Gods I fracked up on that one.
$250 for motion control...weeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Damn Tourettes

Brad Lee,
you da man man. Remember to call them Republicrats.

A Yale psychiatrist said so.
