Now, I'm assuming that most people here know of Jack Thompson and his personal vendetta against us brain dead, murderous gamers.
The Florida Bar Association is involved in a case right now that if won, will revoke Jack Thompson of his right to practice law.
A victory for gamers, yes?
Ah, the Florida Bar Association is still fighting him, eh? Sounds very much so like a victory for us! No more deceit from the likes of him! :D
I'm considering moving down to Florida, tracking down Thompson, denouncing him for bringing a bad light on people named (or nicknamed) Jack, and then playing a violent video game in front of him. True victory will come when I don't get arrested for it.
Can we have a link to the article?
Wasn't that the school shooting in th 90's and he said he played a game called DOOM which brought us the first person shooting games of today.

Yes, plus he says every other problem is caused by games.
Also, what specifically are they after him for? I know it says innapropriate conduct, but what specifically?
False accusations, vehement lying to the court... the usual charges.
Our news station just did a report about schools starting to use video games as part of the curriculum...another win for gamers...
