Okay, the ever so hateful spiteful wrongful Jack Thompson, scourge to gamers and the industry and the people in the industry has once again shown himself.
Thankfully, a few months ago he was disbarred from practicing as a lawyer by the Florida Bar Association, meaning he can no longer go against the game industry in the courts. However, it seems he still gains influence among parents, and will not stop until he is able to convince people of... whatever it is he's trying to convince people of.
What are your thoughts? Do you think that Ol' Thompson will be able to make a comeback in Utah?

Seriously? Does this guy know the meaning of the phrase, "give up"? He should just stop. He probably will end up making a comeback, which really sucks, but there's not too much we can do about it at current (or at least, nothing I can think of). I only hope he leaves WoW alone.

Doesn't matter, he can no longer take swift action any more. Unless, of course, he rounds up all the mom's and raids all game developers.

Really? REALLY? This guy sure is troublesome. What on earth does he have to gain from this crap? I think Jack is actually insane... He lost his case long ago yet he will probably continue to try and "win" for the rest of his life.

Beware the Mother raids... They will spank, ground, and yell!

He's probably one of those old guys that still think a camera will take your soul, and still considers a kiss on the cheek porn(they used to a long time ago), and sadly he isn't the only one like that considering how some people support him, but as they say and i agree, "that the parent is too lazy & irresponsible to monitor and raise their child isn't the game's fault, is their parents, but since they got something to blame they do"
And also angers me that he uses massacres to his benefit and even worse people buy it.
And sadly, as long as there's irresponsible parenting, something to blame and someone to lead them, this story will repeat itself many times...
Hope i stayed on topic:oo:

The sad thing is that if Jack Thompson is ever attacked, gamer or non-gamer, he'd probably have the perfect claim to jump back into stardome, claiming to be the victim of a trained assassin that relied on techniques perfected in Splinter Cell or somthing.

Eh, at least it's in Utah and not in a state that matters (sorry if I offend anyone from Utah, I've been there and I like the place actually, but you got some real strict rules and a religious grip on the community).
