Ohhhhhh yes Everybody knows about Jack Thompson. The One that blames Crimes on Violent Videogames. The One That Blames video Gmaes for bad things kids do and not the parents. The One tha sometimes I think is just down right crazy.
He might not be wanted by police or court but he's wanted by millions of gamers around the worl for one simple thing: Messing with our games! I belive that No matter how look at it's the parents fault. Here's the 2 ways that it has to be the parents fault. EThier it can be from Video games(which I don't think it is or it's from Bad parenting and stufflike that.I don't think Violent Video games cause violents but even if it did How did the kids get The violent games in the FIrst Games? Their PAERENTS!! The other way I think it's pretty obvious why It's the parents. I have a feeling Thompson has a grudge or something towards video games because there is no reason for this to happen. Look on YouTube AOTS Adam Sesller and Jack Thompson. On the Loop he had those 2 and it was really funny I totally agree with Adam. And Jack Thompson sin't alone in his ridiculos fight against video games. Hilarly Clinton is by his side,too!
This all started because of the Hot Coffe Mod which there was no reason to fight over. You could only go to this mod if you hacked it. I don't think a kid can hack a computer in order to find something like this. And the people that can hack are old enough for this stuff. I have a hypothesis why Clinton is focusing on this: to make people forget the real dangers in the world. I mean it makes total sense: There's Nuclear testing in North Korea and earlier we had a chance to stop it.
Let's pretend theer's another problem and make it sound like it's really bad. That way peopel will forget about the real problems and not care about the War going on around us. Does anybody else agree with me?
This Has to stop NOW and only gamers like you and me can do it. No matter how. Maybe make a pettion. Vote against Hilary, or anything else you can think of. If anyone wants to start a pettion just say and we'll get the signatures here, Post it on Newgrounds, and maybe even make a free website about it so othe rpeople can sign it!

That fool is a jackass! He is going to fail on trying to bring down the video game industry just like everyone else who tried to. If Senator Barack Obama becomes the next president (which i hope he does), then we can sent him letters with a lot of signatures of people who supoort our idea. Plus Democrats always listens to the people not the Republicans, you saw what Bush did to us. Do you want it again with another Republican in the White House? Hell no! I support you agent71!

He does listen and speak for the people. As for Thompson, he is the opposite of Obama. For me, Thompson joins the list of people that I dislike. (Jack Thompson, Uwe Boll, that Mark Foley guy, George W. Bush).

I totally agree with you there generalmbison, the republicans are actually the corrupted ones; they come from upper class family's and don't give squat to what we think (especially the poor)

Yes, Hilary Clinton will be a problem. Everyone is supporting her in the US and its only a matter of time until the next election and BAM! She'll be the first Female president and she will probally the first president to totally piss off the gamming community.
I'll be registered to vote by the time she runs, and I'll vote for someone else. I do not want a person like that in office.

I'll turn 18 in March 2008, so that gives me time to register by the time November comes.

Im 18 w00t! I didn't register to vote yet cause I'm really lazy, but theres no point to register and vote now for the propositions and junk, its too late for me to study the stuff and you have to vote on every single one. Being the lazy guy that I am.. school is enough I dont feel like studying to vote this late.. besides if I just vote without knowing the propositions then I just might contribute to pass something horrible.

You know i remember reading an article about a guy who was a regular on the MGS forums (apparently he left them a goodbye message n the forum) commited suicide Leaving a note stating debts and college stress were to blame.
The wierd things is that Jack Thompson wrote to the forum moderator/admin.
Blaming them for the whole video gaming thing comparing it to "Masturbation" and saying video games drove the guy to commit suicide, completly ignoring the suicide note.
And the REALLY weird thing is that he also blamed the forum users themselves for not getting this bloke help when he posted his goodbyes.
I mean come on what could they do? ring the emergency services and say " hello. yea a friend of mine says hes going to commit suicide. I don't know his name or where he lives. But i do know his alias and the forums he frequents if that helps".

Well I just wrote something And I'm going to send it into Gamepro. Unless Of course the one I wrote at the begging of this topic is better.(If I do pick the one at the begging I'll fix the typos) Dear Gamepro, Jack Thompson. That name just makes many gamers shudder. For people that don’t know who he his (which means you’ve been living under a rock) He is that lawyer, that you most likely have heard of, that’s against videogames. HE’S the one that’s blaming videogames for people killing other people. He’s the one that sued Rockstar for the Hot-coffee hack. HE’S the one that makes gamers shudders. Now I’ll be fair and look at it both ways. The way he looks at it and the Way everyone else in the world looks at it. Even though he loses both ways I guess I still have to do it.
The Way he Sees it: Influential kids get there hands on Gta or any other violent game. They start playing. They think “Hey this is cool! Maybe I’ll try jacking a car!!” The kid walks into a street pulls an Uzi out of his pants and steals the drivers cars. The kid starts driving around killing people like he saw in Gta. Now there’s many things that couldn’t happen in this and why he’s wrong 1. Even if it did have that effect on the kid(which it will never will) How did this kid get his hands on this M Rated game?! HIS PARENTS!!! Also if he is old enough to buy video games him self I don’t think he’s influential like that and I think he knows that killing isn’t right. 2. How the Hell does a kid get an Uzi? 3. I don’t think even a 3 three old would think it’s cool and fun to steal a car. 4. How did this kid learn how to drive?
Now the Way the Rest of The World Sees it: A kids growing up a his house. Every day his parents get into a terrible fight once it’s over they start taking the anger out on him. Screaming at him, Hitting him, etc. for no reason. This causes him to get bad grades and have no friends. His parents don’t even care for him. He feels he has no purpose in life. He thinks no one loves him.
This is the reason people start killing. This is the reason people have a bad life. Not videogames, Movies, or anything else like that. The reason is bad parenting not videogames. Like someone said in a letter before me: Video games help people Bond and Make friends. Not be left out and kill.
So which one do you thinks better to send to Gamepro? I want to send one but I don't know which one to send. I think the second one but I want to know what you think.

EDIT:I think I'm just going to use the 2nd one but I will still listen to opinons be on the look out for one of these being in Gamepro(Hopefully ) Ok so I edited both of them this is the final copy of both so tell me which one you like better. Number 1 or 2. 1.Ohhhhhh yes Everybody knows about Jack Thompson. The One that blames Crimes on Violent Videogames. The One That Blames video Games for bad things kids do and not the parents. The One that sometimes I think is just down right crazy. He might not be wanted by police or court but he's wanted by millions of gamers around the world for one simple thing: Messing with our games! I believe that No matter how you look at it's the parents fault. Here's the 2 ways that it has to be the parents fault. Ether it can be from Video games(which I don't think it is ) or it can be bad parenting(bingo!). I don't think Violent Video games cause violence but even if it did How did the kids get The violent games in the First Games? THEIR PAERENTS!! The other way I think it's pretty obvious why It's the parents. I have a feeling Thompson has a grudge or something towards video games because there is no reason for this to happen. Look on You Tube. Serach for:AOTS Adam Sesller and Jack Thompson. On the Loop he had those 2 and it was really funny I totally agree with Adam. And Jack Thompson isn’t alone in his ridicules fight against video games. Hillary Clinton is by his side, too! This all started because of the Hot Coffe Mod which there was no reason to fight over.

That way people will forget about the real problems and not care about the War going on around us. Does anybody else agree with me? This Has to stop NOW and only gamers like you and me can do it. You have to be creative and find out ways to Stop This. One little thing can do a lot. Maybe someone should start a petition. Maybe some people on a site should ban together on a site and fight against this(not physical fighting of course).REMEMBER EVERY LITTLE THING COUNTS!! Use your heads. Think of something that could even make Thompson stop what he’s doing. Maybe we could do some reaserch and actual prove with cold hard facts that he’s wrong!! BAND TOGETHER!!! ARGGGGGG!!!(Ok Maybe That Last Part Wasn’t Necessary But Think Together!) 2.Dear Gamepro, Jack Thompson. That name just makes many gamers shudder. For people that don’t know who he his (which means you’ve been living under a rock) He is that lawyer, that you most likely have heard of, that’s against videogames.

Like someone said in a letter before me: Video games help people Bond and Make friends. Not be left out and kill. Also at the end of the first one where I say we need to band together should I say" Maybe we could join one site so we could scheme our plans together. I suggest we use www.wiitogether.proboard49.com" Should I say that or would It just sound like advertising?

He'll never get over it. We all even he knows that he is going to fail so what's the point Jack? You have lost already.
