    Wooh! Let's party!

    But seroiusly, I don't quite get his tactics. Why attack video games? Video games are there to entertain the masses. Those violent ones should be for adults only and it's not the company's fault if a kid learns from the violence. It should be the parents for letting them buy it anyway...

    ...But we should celebrate! =3

    I'm glad that he was disbarred. He was a nuisance.

    There are many famous people named Jack Thompson. You may be confusing him with someone else.

    I just find it funny how the system Jack Thompson used to fight his battle is the very same one who put an end to him.

    More hilarious is that Mr. Thompson has decided to fight that system now. The guy never learns.

    This reminds me of Family Guy when Peter's dad--who claimed to be devout to his faith--was scorned by the Pope about his actions, then the old man just begins criticizing the Pope in the end.

    *waves to everyone* Dropped in to see if ya got the news. Saw ya did...

    Anyway, pretty sad... There's a lot of people celebrating on a bunch of sites cause they found out, he also thought that military playing video games was a good thing. Guy reminds me of a ambulance chaser lawyer only for video games.

    Anyway, never was a fan of GTA, but if it makes the rest of the gaming industry safe, it's good.

    *reading Wiki article* HE WENT AGAINST THE BAR ASSOCIATION?! THE ONE WHO GIVES LICENSES TO LAWYERS?! Talking about biting the hand that feeds you.
