Jack Thompson vs. inocent mothers.
OK, heres the backstory. Jack Thompson is a conservative christian lawer who for the last several years had mad it hs personal mission to stomp out violent video games. His self defined arch nemissis is Take-Two entertainment, makers of the Grand Theft Auto and Bully sieries. Jack has been involved in a number of attempts to get families of murder victims to hold the Grand Theft Auto series accountable for the death of their loved ones.
After reading the wikkii article about Jack and his exploits, one could come to the conclusion that he is mildly unhinged. With the latest release of GTA getting Jacks undies in a twist, he has resorted to sending a message to the mother of Take-Two Chairman Strauss Zelnick. It reads in part:
The pornography and violence that your son trafficks in is the kind of stuff that most mothers would be ashamed to see their son putting into the hands of other mothers’ children, but, hey, your son Strauss has recently assured the world that he is “a Boy Scout, everybody knows that.” I’d love to see the merit badges that Scout Troop handed out. Is there a Ted Bundy merit badge? If so, your loving son deserves one now. It should be red and green, for obvious reasons.
Right wing zealot Christians are close have made it to #1 on my douche bag list, followed closely by intolerant humorless twits.
