Jack gets sued!?
 
Well, this certainly is different.

Quote:

Thompson has a history of making multiple threats of legal action, whether substantiated or not, both against (Take Two) as well as the retailers who purchase the video games and offer them for sale to the public. Thompson has made such threats again in connection with Manhunt 2 and GTAIV…
Poor ol' Jack. He just wanted to make large sums of money by preying on people's insecurities and ignorance. He never meant to hurt anyone's feelings.

Was Jack speaking in the third person during his statement?

Anyway this is awesome.

Daaaawwww, gee, my heart simply bleeds for Jack that his hijacking the legal system for the purpose of persecuting video game makers and players has started to bite him in the situpon. I'd play the world's smallest violin for him, but it's booked at a kid's birthday party in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Damned swine of a shyster. Disbarring would be too good for him.

You know, I want to be surprised, but I really saw this coming.

I mean, how much can Jack Thompson really trash Take Two's name over and over again about a single issue of questionable 'sexual content' removed at the last minute without them actually doing something in response?

'Bout time I'd say. And here I thought Thompson lost his balls after the National Media and Family Whatever Acronym distanced themselves from him. Or when Florida took his license.

It's about time. I hope Take Two hires themselves a good lawyer, just so Thompson can see what one actually looks like.

Finally, I have been waiting for this for ages. I hope to god the judge adds a kick to the balls from the take two management.

The only way this will fulfill my dreams is if he is utterly ruined by this suit. I mean, seriously, living in a cardboard box somewhere.

As Penny Arcade would say, "Doing something more his speed, like selling his ass for cheap liquor."

EVILNess 03-18-2007 09:18 AM

I say that we make a motion under Florida law, declaring him to be a public nuisance.

Unlike his attempts at grandstanding and ambulance chasing, I think the courts might agree with us.

Didn't Newb once put something here on NPF about a petition that if it gets enough signatures, you can kick a person out of the states?

Why has no-one started one for Jack already??!!
