    Default Jack Thompson walks out on hearing

    Florida Bar V Thompson: Jack Thompson Walks Out On Hearing, Bar Recommends Enhanced Disbarment

    As if anyone's surprised.

    EDIT: Maybe this should go in the Lounge, since it isn't very gaming-related. Sorry.

    At least he's going down fighting. I guess that's kind of admirable.

    I like one of the comments.

    I love how the average GTA player knows how to behave in public, but Wacky Jacky doesn't.

    I once thought that Jack Thompson was just an overly concerned parent thinking he is doing good by trying to ban video games. Now he seems like hes genuinely crazy.

    and hes losing whatever little respect he still had so maybe he will figure that if he shuts up bad things will stop happening to him

    Next logical step; super villianism. Seriously, you watch. He'll have a giant death cannon built on a volcano and pointed at EA within the year.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Penny Arcade explains all. Who ya gonna call?

    What a guy. Though I doubt being disbarred will keep him quiet, he'll likely have much less exposure than he's had.

    I wonder if the mainstream media outlets will cover any of the events of the new proceedings in this case. It would be interesting to see him on, say, Fox News about this.
    I believe in the power of humanity.
