Judge Recommends Guilty Verdict for Jack Thompson
GamePolitics is reporting that a Florida Judge has recommended that Jack Thompson be found guilty on 27 of 31 counts of misconduct and is awaiting a Florida Supreme Court verdict to back him up. Thompson is striking back with allegations against the Judge and others, complaining that loyalty oaths were never signed. "Tunis made 21 recommendations of guilt in relation to Thompson's participation in Strickland vs. Sony, an Alabama case in which the anti-game attorney represented the families of two police officers and a police dispatcher slain by 18-year-old Grand Theft Auto player Devin Moore. Tunis also recommended that Thompson be found guilty on four out of five counts relating to his 2006 attempt to have Rockstar's Bully declared a public nuisance in a case before Miami Judge Ronald Friedman. An additional two guilty counts stemmed from a non-video game matter."
Who is Jack Thompson?
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
We could keep him around for entertainment value alone, but best of all he's so freaking useful in totally discrediting the antigamers who don't froth at the mouth, chew carpets, and fling feces at the judge.

Up in ur base, killin all ur d00dz, JT!
If the gay porn submitted for judicial review doesn't fit, you must acquit!
On the bright side: no job means more time to play GTAIV!
So I'd like to thank GamePolitics, Scuttlemonkey, and especially the Florida judge for brightening up this bad bad Wednesday!
Oh yea, and I want to thank Jack Thompson too, since if he wasn't such a stupid, obnoxious, self-serving buffoon this story would have never made it to slashdot!
My life is SO filled with coincidences. Last night at Felber's one of the ladies there called me a "fuckmonkey" (in regards to my bringing Amy there half an hour before taking Tami there), I just got back fro Top Cat's, where today's drink special is the "Drunk Monkey", and now the Jack Thompson story brought to us by Scuttlemonkey!
Weird. But not as weird as Jack Thompson.

There are all sorts of fun ways you can spin stories.
"..police dispatcher slain by 18-year-old heterosexual man Devin Moore."
"..police dispatcher slain by 18-year-old non-vegetarian Devin Moore."
"..police dispatcher slain by 18-year-old Darwinist Devin Moore."
Those dihydrogen monoxide addicts will stop at nothing to get their next "hit"...
So what videogame was he playing that turned him into a criminal?
Leben Sie jetzt die Fragen.
Word is that he's planning to serve the local McDonalds with a cease-and-desist order and a job application.
