The video game industry gave him a cranial menu that popped up in the blink of an eye in that police station," "And that menu offered him the split-second decision to kill the officers, shoot them in the head, flee in a police car, just as the game itself trained them to do.

Dennis McCauley Is Correct!
"It's all very confusing to GamePolitics." Dennis McCauley is absolutely correct. He IS confused.
My Modest Proposal was a lampooning of the targeting of police officers and women by the violent video game industry. Not surprised that a mere freelance writer, not a columnist as he claims, for the Philadelphia Inquirer wouldn't get it. The St. Paul Pioneer Press ordered McCauley to stop falsely presenting himself as a "columnist" for that paper, so we know the man is a fake.
Secondly, there is a huge difference between lampooning people who target others and assisting others in targeting others, which is precisely what GamePolitics has now done, again.
The fact that Newgrounds took down the game, upon my protest, is an admission that it should not have been done in the first place. It was not taken down, or "blammed" because of a low rating. The game rating of it was high. They got scared, and they should be scared.
Dennis McCauley is not scared because he is dumb. "Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom." Let's see, that would make Dennis McCauley the most unwise boy on the block today.
What you folks here are going to learn is that Dennis McCauley is not quite as clever as he thinks he is. Stay tuned. Jack ThompsonJack Thompson
I want tell you about the town of Stockbridge, Massachusetts, where this happened here, they got three stop signs, two police officers, and one police car, but when we got to the scene of the crime, there was five police officers and three police cars, being the biggest crime of the last fifty years, and everybody wanted to get in the newspaper story about it.

Wow, are you confused. The man who was voted Video Game Co-Person of the Year, along with Paul Eibeler, for 2005 is testifying before a state legislature on behalf of a constitutional video game bill, and that is not news at a site supposedly dedicated to covering governmental efforts against the video game industry? What illegal substance are you on, bucko?

Jack Thompson: THIS GIANT "M" IS TOTALLY AWESOME, DUDES!
Actually, I don't think the "M" is big enough. I would favor two giant "M" labels that would be affixed to and thus obliterate the entire front and back of each "Mature" game.
And, if you buy such a game, labeled in that fashion, especially if you buy it at Best Buy, you get, free of charge, a giant "M" tatooed on your forehead right there at the point-of-sale device.
That particular "M" will stand for "MORON," which is presently a synonym for "gamer." David Walsh disagrees, but Best Buy wants him to disagree.
Oh, and here's the latest body blow to the video game industry engineered by Jack Thompson. Enjoy!

Now friends, there was only one or two things that Obie coulda done at the police station, and the first was he could have given us a medal for being so brave and honest on the telephone, which wasn't very likely, and we didn't expect it, and the other thing was he could have bawled us out and told us never to be see driving garbage around the vicinity again, which is what we expected, but when we got to the police officer's station, there was a third possibility that we hadn't even counted upon, and we was both immediately arrested. Handcuffed. And I said "Obie, I don't think I can pick up the garbage with these handcuffs on." He said, "Shut up, kid. Get in the back of the patrol car."
