If you're a gamer like myself, you've probably heard of Jack Thompson. This is the guy who blamed violent video games for things like the Columbine shootings. He's well-known for trying to make video games and other popular media into the scapegoat for violence in our society. So to my delight, I found out today that he's being DISBARRED! Hallelujah - it couldn't have happened to a better person. Apparently, this good ol' Christian boy has been doing some pretty dishonest and not-so-christian things, such as making false statements to courts. For more information, see here: http://kotaku.com/5054772/jack-thompson-disbarred Is there anyone else out in MyLot land as amused as I am right now?

Well, I guess that's game over for him then! (Sorry, I just couldn't let it not be said.) Great news story Latrivia. So what will he do now? Try to carry on his campaign as an outsider? Perhaps get out the fat felt-tip pens and glue. He'll probably be able to muster together a small army of sign-waving yelling people to do his bidding.

He's currently trying to fight it, from what I understand. Chances are though, he'll end up a jobless activist.

That's so refreshing. This was the same moron who claimed that violent video games were to blame for the Virginia Tech killings only to later discover that the killer neither owned, nor played any video games, much less violent ones.

Hey, I am thrilled!! It makes me so happy when justice is done. I believe in Karma and by golly Karma takes a stand and look what comes out of it!? He will have some work to do. Hallelujah is right!
