Ok, For those of you who are avid video game players, as well perhaps read some popular web comics, you’ve no doubt heard of this moron.
It seems that ignorance has reached a new high. This gentleman (if anyone would ever call him that) is advicating against violent video games. No harm in that, I agree violent video games should have more control over them. but I blame the Parents not the game industry.
Mr. Thomson, has agreed in SATIRE (recently discovered) that he was going to donate $10,000.00 US to the ESA foundation, if any game developer would make a game to his odd specifications.
as a third party observer, I can’t relly give more info on this moron. So ! I suggest reading
www.penny-arcade.com and Canada’s own www.vgcats.com to see what Jack (moron) Thomson had to say to them, and how things are playing out. From my view, everything Jack has said only makes him look even more like a complete ignorant douche bag, whom unfortunatly the MASS MEDIA is taking to believing… now who’s more foolish, the fool, or the fool(s) who follow him.
Could this fool, bring the downfall of so called “voilent” video games ?
I personally have played all of these supposedly horrible “cop killer trainers” and have never had the urge to go out and hurt, or even be mean to a puppy… I suppose MY PARENTS did a decen’t job of raising me so that I don’t have supressed rage issues and homosydal(sp?) tendancies…
Just my .02 But these American Evangelistic F$ckholes are really starting to piss me off…
I totally support everything they do, especially thier “Childs play” fundraiser!
they have raised over 500,000.00 USD to support sick children in hospitals. These Guys have the largest hearts in the world, we should all aspire to do as them.
They totally don’t need any of the BS they’re getting… Jack’s just pissed because the ponied up the bling and actually F’ing donated it !
And now Thompson has made a plea to Seattle Police Chief, demanding that Penny Arcade’s $10K donation (in Jack’s name) be considered criminal harassment.
This man is out of his mind… he’s just an attention monger, he wants money and people to pay attention to him, and he’ll do anything it takes. BS total BS this guy deserves whatever he gets (and I hope it’s an unpleasent end)
Jack Thompson faxed the Seattle PD today with a request to have the PA guys arrested for donating to the charity on his behalf. Anyone have a straightjacket for this dude?
Actually, the fax never made it to the autorities… although it DID make it to a bunch of people who didn’t care… so yet another score for the boys at PA
