Nobody gets to designate the charity except Paul Eibeler. Can you read? Are you on drugs? Have the games fried your frontal lobes so thoroughly that even a "Dead Kenny" has more grey matter than you? Jack Thompson

HUH?
Did I say "more"? Re-read my e-mail, Einstein. I said the game "helped cause the death." Where is the word "MORE" in my email? Can you gamers read carefully, or not?
The game was part of the causal mix. You guys never think anything bad could possibly come from a game. That is a bizarre blindspot in all of your thinking.
They were playing a game that makes that type of gunplay appear fun and consequence-free. If you can't figure out the causal relationship, then there's the proof your frontal lobes are fried by the games. Jack Thompson

I've Forgotten More about the First Amendment than you'll ever know, obviously Dear Goofball: I won the hearing and you did not. Blank Rome cited all of their little video game cases, and lost. Can you read, or have the games completely fried your frontal lobes? Apparently they have. We're winning, and Rockstar is not. Bye-bye Rockstar. Jack Thompson

FOR ALL YOU GAMER MORONS WHO CLAIM, SANS YOUR FRONTAL LOBES, THAT THERE IS NO EVIDENCE THAT PLAYING VIOLENT GAMES CAUSES HARM IN MINORS, PLEASE READ THIS, IF YOU'RE STILL ABLE TO READ. HOOAH!

Doug Lowenstein Is Lying Again
Actually, Doug, a universal rating system does NOT require the "support of many other industries." All it requires is 50% + 1 of the legislators in the New York Assembly and Senate, respectively. Duh.
Further, Doug, and I know it is hard for you to pay attention, with your traveling make-up artist asking you to close your eyes intermittently, but here you go. Maybe she can read this to you as you're being powdered: The laws that have been struck down have not used the proper approach. The courts have identified the problems. Those of us out here crafting better laws can actually read. We haven't had our frontal lobes fried by games, you know. You're about to see the proper approach in Delaware, Louisiana, and North Carolina.
For Bo, short for Boring, please note: We are all very aware of what your lying retailer organizations are doing. You're covering up the fact that the Federal Trade Commission has recently found that 42% of the time, kids of any age can buy Mature-rated games. That means, any underage kid who goes to two stores has a 63% chance of buying a Mature-rated game. Thus, the rating system is utterly flawed and ineffectual.
What we are out to do, with Governor Spitzer's help, is stop the video game industry from marketing and selling Mature-rated games to minors. Pretty simple stuff, really, and the industry is in a total panic realizing that that day is approaching. Glad to help explain it all to you guys.
Oh, and Doug, why don't you go threaten CBS again.

"JACK THOMPSON IS WINNING!
The goal I set for myself was to destroy Rockstar Games and Take-Two, to make an example of them. That is why I prepped even Hillary Clinton (and Dave Walsh, see below) for their "Hot Coffee" news conference in July 2005. I would prep Satan himself for such a thing. Hillary is cuter.
Well, well, well. Take a look at the latest shoe to drop in the fall-out from the Hot Coffee scandal that Dennis McCauley brought to our attention and that I ran with. It amazes me that you pixelante idiot thugs are perpetually crazed about me for wanting to punish a game company for embedding explicit sex in a game being marketed and sold to kids, when in fact it was Dennis McCauley and his freelance GamePolitics that actually created the Hot Coffee fiasco. Nobody would have known about it without Dennis. Proves an Internet nonjournalist can do the right thing once in awhile--kind of like a stopped clock is right twice a day.
Anyway, I am working with the lawyers on the below extravaganza. Don't expect Take-Two to survive, because it will not. I got Bono not to buy it, and I will soon make sure, with the incredible successes in our Alabama case (read the papers, kids),that Take-Two will collapse from its legal liabilities.
Paul Eibeler is head to jail, also. Is this a great country, or what?
