"Enhanced Disbarment - 10G" - sketcher67, on 06/04/2008, -4/+148No one will take him serious anymore... well except Fox News.
- Tob3z, on 06/04/2008, -1/+134Well you got what was coming to you Thompson. I'm lucky and live outside the US so didn't have to put up with your *****. Yet somehow you still managed to piss me off.
Why do I feel that this isn't going to stop you though? - kevin1987, on 06/04/2008, -1/+98I thought it said "Enhanced Dismemberment".
- askwhy2008, on 06/04/2008, -4/+90I laughed. I cried from laughing. I laughed more.
- darthgoat, on 06/04/2008, -4/+81This will be a day long remembered.

- IanPR, on 06/04/2008, -0/+47GTA is a free will game.
He doesn't HAVE to kill cops or have fun with prostitutes in the game.
He CHOSE to. - Calcularius, on 06/04/2008, -0/+45The only argument you’ll ever need against the
video-games-cause-violence lie…

“I listen to scientists, health care providers, public safety officials, and I base what I do based upon their findings, not what some readers of Game Informer magazine wish was true because of how they waste their time.” – Jack Thompson - mywhitenoise, on 06/04/2008, -1/+45Because FoxNews always has room for an "expert" attorney?
- eliot2000, on 06/04/2008, -0/+40It's like the difference between killing someone and killing them a lot.
- Destroyman, on 06/04/2008, -3/+43Finally, this government does it's god-damned job!
- theatheist, on 06/04/2008, -0/+38finaly, something good turned out from the state of florida
- ISurfTooMuch, on 06/04/2008, -0/+35I'm surprised no one has posted this paragraph yet.
"Before walking out of the courtroom, Thompson filed what he called "Thompson's Formal Objection to June 4 Sanctions Hearing." In the rambling, 4,500-word objection, Thompson questioned Tunis' ability to preside at his hearing, calling her incompetent and arrogant and threatening to have her removed from office "in the days and weeks ahead." He also went on to call the people run The Florida Bar fascists and denied that he was involved some sort of "petty culture war.""
Way to go Jackie-boy. Insult the judge who holds your fate in her hands. That's really smart. - djtyrant, on 06/04/2008, -2/+35Justice Served!

... - SocialPoison, on 06/04/2008, -0/+30I hate it when super hard achievements are only worth 10 or 20 G... I mean you have to go to law school for a while... then you have to slip into dementia... honestly that one's just not worth it.
- explnx, on 04/27/2009, -0/+27You don't even have to RTFA to know this... it means he can't reapply for ten years.
- Jaliyl, on 06/04/2008, -0/+25Last week of school, CoD4 gets new PC maps tomorrow, new Disturbed album, Aced finals, Mass effect for PC, and JT gets disbarred.
This is possibly the best week in 2008, unless I get laid this year. - bigmac375, on 06/04/2008, -0/+24http://achievements.schrankmonster.de/Achievement. ...
- Thrunq, on 06/04/2008, -0/+21Careful Men, he might go into Vigilante mode...
- AndrewDB, on 06/04/2008, -0/+20I wonder what the differences between "Enhanced Disbarment" and regular "Disbarment" is...
Either way: It serves Jack Thompson right... Justice has been served. - DCJoeDogaswell, on 06/04/2008, -0/+18What we are witnessing is the slow, painful descent of a man into the depths of madness. How are you going to just walk out on a court date that pretty much determines your livelihood. This person is insane and over the last few years this has become more and more apparent.
- weaselfingers, on 06/04/2008, -0/+17It's basically the same as regular disbarment, except it comes with a bunch of extra weapons and a "Making of" DVD.
- masterBeef3, on 06/04/2008, -0/+17Meh, for someone leading an unholy crusade against game designers' first amendment rights, I'd have to say Ol' Jacky getting an 'enhanced disbarment' is a fitting punishment. Now the douche can't even legally practice law for ten years; but then again, you'd have a hard time taking cases disbarred. LOL.
- sencity, on 06/04/2008, -1/+18he deserves that as well.
- inactive, on 06/04/2008, -1/+18Future headline: "After dying his hair green, Jack Thompson was signed to play The Joker in the next Batman movie. Producers told the press 'He was a natural!'. Jack however replied 'You don't have the authority to judge my acting!' and sprayed Jokergas on them, cackled, and disappeared in a cloud of hype. He was later found in Arkham Asylum, counting the names of judges he planned to kill."
- noerrorsfound, on 06/04/2008, -0/+16Correction: He's a School Shooting Expert™.
- FZero68, on 06/04/2008, -0/+16It's Fox "News"
- mywhitenoise, on 06/04/2008, -0/+16Too many stay-at-home mom's and Republicans care about Fox News, sooooo
- FallenWings, on 06/04/2008, -0/+15I am so twirling my buster sword right now.
- whiteknives, on 06/04/2008, -4/+18***** JACK THOMPSON
- lowfalls, on 06/04/2008, -2/+16Cue Nelson Muntz laugh.
- Petebyte, on 06/05/2008, -0/+13When I look at Jack Thompson I see a deeply troubled man. It's not even funny any more. I am past the point of laughing at him or being angry at him. I just think the guy needs to work through some personal issues or even get some help.
- skinrock, on 06/04/2008, -0/+12I haven't heard Obama or Clinton talk about this subject during the democratic nomination race yet. And it's because people don't give a ***** about this. This is a stupid, petty issue and he needs to grow up and get over it. They are discussing issues like the economy, the war, natural disaster relief, etc. Issues that Thompson couldn't even comprehend.
- TantrooM, on 06/04/2008, -2/+14Um Howard Stern stayed on 'terestial radio' long after Jack pointed it out. He just went to Satellite radio on his own so he wouldn't be regulated. He wasn't FORCED there.
And he wasn't the only one whining and bitching. Stop acting like the God of censorship. You over estimate your stature as a PAID angry idiot, there are many out there to take your place. And some of them do it for free Jack.
For someone who claims God is on their side, you certainly have a history of ignoring Matthew 6:24. - sexybobo, on 06/04/2008, -0/+11semi-competent people know it is against the first amendment to do what Jack Thompson is trying to do.
- thirdeyeopen, on 06/04/2008, -0/+11He claims that Clinton and Obama agree with him. I knew Clinton was into censorship, but is Obama? Or is he just dropping names?
- ISurfTooMuch, on 06/04/2008, -0/+11It won't stop him, but every time his name is mentioned, it can be prefaced with "anti-video game crusader and disbarred attorney". He won't lose all credibility (as if he had any to begin with), but some people may be curious as to why he was disbarred, and that will distract a bit from his lunatic ramblings.
Oh Jack, you've been such an ***** so many times. I'm glad to see that the ***** you've spread has started to blow back on you. You've had it coming to you for years. HAND. - FutureisDubious, on 06/04/2008, -0/+10I love the digg down feature. it's like a virtual kick in the balls :)
- bigmac375, on 06/04/2008, -0/+10that would be most excellent.
- Biohazard6601, on 06/04/2008, -0/+10the harder he tries, the more gamers everywhere laugh at his lack of information and futility
- triont, on 06/05/2008, -0/+10I dugg you down for promoting censorship.
- ChildofDestiny, on 06/04/2008, -0/+10No, the government succeds in doing one thing right for once..
- TantrooM, on 06/04/2008, -0/+92008 has been living up to my expectation, I love it.
Take that Lewis Black, but he was right 2007 did suck. - Cyber_Akuma, on 06/05/2008, -0/+9Who takes Fox News seriously?
- dougmc, on 06/04/2008, -0/+9Just being disbarred won't mean he's gone.
- AwakeningAZ, on 06/04/2008, -0/+8Something tells me that losing his ability to practice law won't make him shut the ***** up. And he's most known for not shutting the ***** up.
- TantrooM, on 06/04/2008, -0/+8http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23204875/
"In his personal blog, Della Rocca also posts an interesting e-mail conversation he had with Thompson after the Virginia Tech shooting. In it, Thompson challenges Della Rocca to a series of gaming debates and explains that they each stand to net $3,000 or more per event. Della Rocca declined this money-making endeavor, though not before suggesting they instead agree to a free debate...which Thompson declined."
So why am I getting dugg down for speaking the truth? There are idiots out there who believe what Jack spews, but luckily they are old. It was a collective that caused Howard to be critisized, not one man. -
