Thompson? Thompson's back? Really? Oh mah goodness! I've been waiting for this. The old glory days have returned! ^_^
Mr. Thompson is an amazingly entertaining individual. I used to love rattling on about how bats*** crazy this guy was. I really thought those days might be over since he was disbarred some time ago!
It's quite possibly because of his publicity stunt legal actions that have a tendency to, oh I dunno, go esplody in his own face. This is the same man that convinced a judge to DEMAND a pre-release copy of 'Bully' so that he could see how TERRIBLE it surely was! This is the same man that was so ignorant he actually had the odacity to publicly state that the average gamer was just as bad as a rapist.
From a purely satirical perspective, this man amuses me to no end.
He reminds me of watching Saturday morning cartoons, with the villain that swore up and down he was right, but was absolutely cracked. Each and every week, the rest of civilization would understand right off the bat that he was truly a villain, and each and every week he would be defeated, and each and every week he'd marvel at what would happen "when they finally see it his way!" ...And they never would. And we never will.
Jack Thompson is one of the closest things I may ever know to a living cartoon character, if you've heard him speak in interviews, he runs with terrifyingly false logic that can be proven wrong at every corner with minimal ease, and he passes off falsehood after falsehood with genuine fear in his voice as though the youth of America are going to rise up and brutalize the rest of us. This is a man who somehow has never been corrected, never gotten the mental and emotional help he so clearly needs, and a man who has very obviously never bothered to check any of the 'facts' or statistics that he so furiously blurts out.
Listening to Jack Thompson is a terrifying thrill, because I've compared facts as he speaks, and it never ceases to amaze me that this man has unapologetically gone on tv and sputtered out utter b****** without a single news anchor so much as batting an eye. And the viewers eat it up.
I'm not going to say anyone should bring him to some sort of bodily harm; but I am saying that he's absolutely deranged, and as much as he amuses me, I genuinely hope that at some point he's forced to get some real help.
And lastly, if he's disbarred... Who's acting as his attorney for this case?
