Jack Thompson has out-outdone himself!
 
http://www.psu.com/Thompson-demands-...0001358-p0.php

Quote:

Anti-videogames attorney Jack Thompson has contacted Take-Two demanding that the publisher remove a section of its upcoming title Grand Theft Auto IV by September 21.

The controversial Thompson specifically targeted an early scene in the game, in which the main character’s objective is to kill an anti-games lawyer. Documents filled earlier this week to a federal court in Florida reveal that Thompson penned a letter insisting the scenes were of direct reference to him, and demanded the content be removed by the end of the week.
My favourite part of the report?

Quote:

Concluding, Thompson further added that he feels the scene could potentially lead to copycat killings, claiming his own safety could be put at risk.
Oh, and we mustn't forget the idle threats:

Quote:

He demanded the content be removed by 5pm this Friday, warning: “Govern yourselves accordingly, or else.”

That shit is fucking awesome, nobody likes this moron, I wouldn't be too suprised if somebody does cap him for trying to get GTA screwed with. He had better watch his back. I mean, even he himself says gamers are dangersous because of the material they play.

So.. Why would you try and pis them off? That's like tugging on a crackheads crackpipe while he's tying to toke up. You just don't do that shit unless you want trouble.

I wouldn't say he's outdone himself, this seems pretty normal for him.

Now, when he asked to subpeona George W Bush to court, I think he outdid himself.

I was just continuing the trend set by the last JT thread. :rolleyes:

I'm starting to wonder if JT is actually hired by Take Two to help publicise their products. No, seriously. If JT is complaining about it, more people will hear about it, wonder what's so bad, and find out more about it, possibly even buying it.

D3V 2007-09-19 11:29 AM

Muhaha, an insider job. Good conspiracy, I'm sure if you looked hard enough you may be able to find some fishy information about him.

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 11:57 AM

I'm pretty sure he's just an asshat but that might be true too.

I could see that since he just seems to concentrate on their products in general.

D3V 2007-09-19 12:36 PM

Yep. Just researched on this guy and found out why he's such a moron.



"Jack Thompson lists himself as a Republican"

Bingo!

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 12:36 PM

Fail.

D3V 2007-09-19 12:38 PM

If you can prove to me that Republicans aren't morons, then i'll side with you, until then keep wishing.

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 12:45 PM

Yes, D3v, every single person in the very large group of republicans in our country is a moron.

Generalizations and stereotypes do nothing but make you look like an idiot. Yes, some republicans are morons. Yes, some democrats are morons. Yes, some libertarians are morons.

You could make a list of generalizations for any group and apply it to any other group.

For instance, some stereotypes of black people:

Lazy
Uneducated
Smelly
Violent

It is true that some black people are those things, but it's also true that some white people are all of those things, some mexicans, etc.

So yeah, I just proved to you that Republicans aren't morons. Not all of them, anyway. Until you meet every single Republican in existence, you're wrong.

D3V 2007-09-19 12:50 PM

Correction, he's a conservative christian republican, the worst kind.

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 01:12 PM

I would say most Republicans are conservative Christians. Still, you don't know that all conservative Christian Republicans are morons, either. You're just stereotyping.

D3V 2007-09-19 01:13 PM

Yes, but that stereotype is correct, and there ARE stereotypes that are 99.9% correct.

Thanatos 2007-09-19 01:38 PM

My God.... sometimes I can't read your posts. They're so full of arrogance it's repugnant.

Why must you argue for the sake of arguing? Do you have to be right about every little, minute thing?

FOR THE LOVE OF FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 01:47 PM

So don't read them. D3v's doing the same thing.

Really, you don't have to read my posts.

Thanatos 2007-09-19 01:57 PM

No, I like reading some of your posts. Maybe next time when you decide to argue just to be an ass, put up a spoiler before you post. Maybe something like:

[I'm going to argue for no fucking reason]
**CAUTION**
Massive amounts of bullshit contained within this post.
[/end arguing for no fucking reason]

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 02:00 PM

I very rarely argue just to be an ass.

D3v is being ignorant, I don't agree with him, I am voicing my opinion. I don't even think he really feels the way he acts, I think he just does it to incite arguments, AKA he's trolling. It's happening quite a lot lately, by both him and HoH, but I'm still going to disagree with them and I'm still going to make it known.

Would you rather me sit idly by and say nothing about D3v being ignorant?

Thanatos 2007-09-19 02:05 PM

I really doubt he meant every single Republican in this country is a moron. If that is the case, then yes he was being ignorant.

!King_Amazon! 2007-09-19 02:33 PM

I don't think whether he was being ignorant is really in question here. He's D3v, of course he was being ignorant.
