Why would anybody think he needs psychiatric testing?

My guess is because he is a complete head case.

Because it’s not normal to fixate on stopping other people from playing video games through intervening legal actions.

Thompson promptly sued the Bar after passing the test, landing $20,000 in monetary damages.

Is there anything funnier than lawyers suing lawyers?

Any bets that this story is a plant to make the last name Thompson with nut cases?

That pretty much covers it.. this guy is pretty much obsessive compulsive over leglelsating people’s choices.

Beats me. He always seemed such a calm, level-headed sort of guy when he was here.

No, really. Except for the lawsuits, death threats, shrieking protests, frenzied tirades and foaming at the mouth he was just your normal, quiet kind of guy.

Not unless Fred Thompson has a nutty cousin.

He got on some high-powered FR’s nerves here a long time ago as you know; personally I think the guy is smarter than Hell and I don’t give a darn if someone is rude or crass but I never cared for persecution.

For the Bar to use its collective power to silence him is reprehensible and instructive as well.

Never mess with the Brotherhood.

that is the implication no matter how untrue.

(big lie theory at work)

however, I bet the bar prosecutor could use a bit of evaluation herself.

Ex FReeper

That doesn't necessarily mean he's nuts. Before reaching that judgement we'd ought, in fairness, first examine his OPUS thread, and his messages at Liberty Post.

The Florida Bar can’t be all that powerful any more.

Senator Mel Martinez blew them off and sent a video taped keynote speech so he could attend the Latino Elected Official conference next door (both were in orlando).
