Jack Thompson faces disciplinary action

Post by froggyboy604 »

Thompson was recommended for review following five counts of professional misconduct (three related to his video game violence campaign). If the charges hold up in front of the Florida Supreme Court, Thompson faces disciplinary action and possible disbarment.

Of course, Thompson isn't taking this laying down. In a statement to GamePolitics he said, "A referee is appointed and we have a trial. The Supreme Court reviews it later. The trial isn't going to happen, however. I have sued The Bar in Circuit Court. It's in far more trouble than I am." That's right! He sued the Florida bar!

There is no word yet on when the referee appointed by the Florida Supreme Court will rule on Thompson's alleged misconduct
note: Jack Thompson is a lawyer who hates video game violenle like Grand theft Auto.

I hope he gets punish cuz i think its dumb for jack to sue companys for making violent games since It's a free world, so people should be allowed to play and make violent games. Plus, blaming games for society's problems is dumb since there are plenty of people who play violent games who dont hurt other people, and there are probably more violent people who dont play games.

Plus, I dont like how Jack sensationalize violent games like GTA, Bully and saying their bad for society.
