Jack Thompson

Jack Thompson is a paranoid idiot.

For all those who haven't heard about Jack Thompson, check Gamespot's article about how this self-described christian lawyer verbally attacked a judge for allowing the shipment of a violent Video Game.

Thompson stated that Video Games are directly responsible for acts of murder. He accused the judge of ruling against him out of spite and secretly laughing about it and that he would be laughing when he (Thompson) brings him a parent, and I quote, "whose kid is in the ground because another kid was trained to kill him.."

These are the people who want to censor what you have access to: paranoid  drama queens  who'll say anything for attention. Have ever noticed that people who want to be in charge create a bogeyman who's after your children to justify their authority? We see all the time. Thompson claims that Video Games "train" people who to kill and therefor must be censored. Well, in actuality, the only places where people are trained who to kill are the police and the military and they are the pillars of the conservative society Jack Thompson wants to protect from Video Games.

Here is  a sample of what paranoid Thompson said to the judge: "How dare you, judge, promise a hearing today and prevent that hearing from occurring. How dare you judge, petulantly order the production of the game after it is released on Tuesday morning. I didn't even ask for that. You did that out of spite, and you were smiling when you did that. You really enjoyed that one didn't you judge. Next time you promise a hearing, I'll bring a parent with me whose kid is in the ground because of a kid who trained to kill him or her on a violent Video Game. Try mocking that person, I dare you."

This guy's insane! Another narcissistic, self-glorifying, self-appointed Liebermann. (Incidentally, I know Liberman is spelt with only one M. It seems appropriate to me that some you wants decree what morality is and force people to abide by it should have two Ms at the end of his name, kind of like spelling America with a K.)

These defenders of morality are more concerned with being as dramatic and extreme as possible to ensure they stay in the limelight by having people write about them i.e. I've wasted enough time on that paranoid jerk!
