I have played video games since the Atari 2600 days, including the basic pong-esque games to even a little bit of Grand Theft Auto. Now while I don't play very many violent games, I have played my share of FPS's. Never once have I wanted to kill someone because of what I "learned in a game". Sure there are some people that need to remove themselves from the gene pool, but I won't be the one doing it. We can only hope these people, Jack Thompson included, will just do something that will win them a darwin award.
kajoob I think I speak for everyone here when I say that you should STFU. Considering it has well over 1000 diggs, you're just making yourself look like a moron.
This guy is just a leech riding on the wave of controversy created by the infamous GTA "Hot coffee" mod.Here's a lawyer joke where "laywer" is replaced by Jack Thompson:"A reporter outside of a courtroom asked a defendant clad only in a barrel: “Oh, I see Jack Thompson lost the case!�? The defendant answered, “No, we won.�? "I'll post more Lawyer... er... Jack Thompson jokes as I find them. Post any ones you know of to help out.
Another one source from <a class="user" href="http://www.lawyer-jokes.us">http://www.lawyer-jokes.us</a> A doctor and Jack Thompson were attending a c**ktail party when the doctor was approached by a man who asked advice on how to handle his ulcer.The doctor mumbled some medical advice, then turned to Jack and asked, "How do you handle the situation when you are asked for advice during a social function?""Just send a bill for such advice" replied Jack.On the next morning the doctor arrived at his surgery and issued the ulcer-stricken man a $50 bill. That afternoon he received a $100 bill from Jack Thompson.
