He claims that the distribution of games is "another version of Pearl Harbor".
Read the (short) interview here.

Conservatives are good for nothing.

ROFL.. Japanese culture.. it's SOOO yummy and adictive.. AHHhhh!!!

The only racism I see in that article is Jack Thompson's racist remarks comparing a Japanese company to an attack on Pearl Harbor.


So often times it happens, that we live our lives in chains, and we never even know we had the key...

i think it's worse. somehow, by reverse logic, he's ignoring the effect that American culture has had (and is having) all over the world. Hollywood is the World Capital of pron and violence.. has been for decades.

But in Jacks universe, none of that exists. Kinda scary - very insular mindset he's got.

Who acutally cares what he says anymore? He's lost all his credibility, and a vast majorty of people don't like him.


Conservatives are good for nothing.

Thanks for making the stupid assumption that this man represents all conservatives. Also according to your logic,
All liberals are a bunch of tree hugging commies,
All people of Islamic faith are terrorist,
All Jews are stingy with their money,
All Irish people are drunks
All Asians are good at math,
All African Americans are criminals
All Germans are Nazis,
All the French are cowards,

You never hear conservatives complaining about animal abuse, either.
You never hear me complain about it.
Due to the fact that you've not heard me complain about it, can it be derived that I must support those who abuse animals?
Because I haven't been bitching about it, would it be a fair assumption that I, myself, am an animal abuser?
Because I like Rumsfeld...does that mean I'd approve of him abusing animals?

You see where I'm going with this.
I hope.


I swear by my life - and my love of it - that I will never live my life for the sake of another man, or ask another man to live his for mine.

None of this would be a problem if kids were sent to reform school or boot camp or a chatholic school (without the catholic stuff) or military school or guantanamo bay at age 6, then they would come back at 17-18 and go to college, then get a job.

It would be almost as if puberty never happened. :D Imagine a world of well diciplined and respectful citizens.

We need to abort all fetuses, whether people want to or not, they're responcible for over 80 percent of the crime in america.

Being partially Japanese myself, i take incredible offense to Jack Thompson's remarks. How can he even fathom blaming Japanese culture for violence. And equating it with Pearl Harbor? I don't like to flame and be brutish when I post politics related messages, but quite frankly, Jack Thompson is retarded, and if he were to die tomorrow, I would laugh. If he can blame Japan for being racist by "infecting" America with videogames, then I'm sure he'd agree when I said America is racist because we "infect" other countries with obesity-causing fast foods (I say this sarcastically, of course). What an idiot. This guy isnt a conservative, he's an embarassment to America in general.

You have to laugh at JT really dont you? I've never known a single person to be so offensive and yet so goddamn hillarious at the same time, maybe he should of considered a career in stand up comedy instead of being a lawyer, i mean nobody is actually taking him seriously are they? Everybody i know who knows the name Jack Thompson usualy breaks into a fit of laughter whenever they hear his name.

Ha, gotta love this

Back to the topic in hand, I think that Jacko forgot that GTA could be played on any Microsoft PC or X-Box, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Microsoft an American company? I think that he really IS a retarded attention whore.

You see people, this is why fundamentilsm is a bad idea.

Good fucking Christ! Any time the Japanese do anything, there's always some jackass bitching about Pearl Harbor! That lying, extremist moron is trying really hard to destroy what little credibility he may have left!

An interesting tidbit, though: The Mitsubishi company actually built the planes that were used in the Pearl Harbor attack.

Lol, wow, I didn't really expect anyone to take that seriously. And what propaganda? Are Western government's really bent on proving that Japanese are evil?

I would like to take time out to make a startling announcement.
Lieberman hates his ass. That is all. (Lieberman also praises the very thing Jack is attacking, ESRB, and states it's a lack of store enforcement not industry enforcement.)
This is akin to Mrs. Sheehan's position looking worse because neonazis are supporting her. Some days you just don't want support from the extremists.

This is why Hellery won't win squat if she runs, she's trying to coddle all the freakazoids. Won't surprise me if she starts fraternizing with PeTArds next.

Someone should strap jack to a chair, and force him to watch video games for 24 hours straight, and see if he wants to kill anyone, if he says no, then we can all agree that he's completly lost his mind and is only in it for the publicity, and if he says yes........... well, then we'd have an even better case to have him locked up in the nut house :D

he'd probably kill you for two reasons.
1) cuz you straped him to a chair for 24hrs.
2) just to prove that even a completely sane person like jack thompson, ha, can becom violent from video games.
