    And by "it", I mean he has once again shown us that he is mad as a brush.

    Now he's calling for seizures of copies of 25-to-life from store shelves, in a godwin-tastic modern day version of Nazi book burning.

    YOU GO JACK, YOU CRAZY BASTARD!

    I've said it once and I'll say it again. The mans a nut-bar.

    He's nuts, but he gets too much attention. Was he not thrown off the prosecution in the case against Sony? He was claiming they were "corrupting America's youth" with their evil merchandise. It's well worth reading this wikipedia piece on him. I've completely lost respect for him
    Edit: Actually, I never had respect for him. What I meant was he has furthered my personal loss of respect for the populace of America.

    Wasn't he recently banned from practicing law in one state? I hope to see others follow suit soon.

    As Gabe on Penny Arcade quite rightly pointed out, don't hate the player, hate the game. Jack Thompson might be as mad as a brush, but were he to disappear down a big hole tomorrow, there would be some other hysterical mediawhore ready to blitz America with their hyperbole & non-truths.

    His home state Florida. Most sane and non-right wing bible bashers are distancing themselves from his rantings.
