Jack used to FReep under many re-treads, and used to threaten to sue anyone who disagreed with him.
he also has a Batman complex...
My faith in the justice system will be restored to total chrome-buffed brilliance if this guy’s license gets pulled. When that one judge that sued the dry cleaner for millions due to lost pants lost his job, that was like shaking a lot of corn-encrusted feces off of my faith. But if Jack “freaking a-hole” Thompson loses his law license, it will be buffed to a shining hue so bright you’ll need to view it through a shoebox like an eclipse.

I saw a video of how he acted in court towards the judge in the Bully case. The judge had far more patience than I. He threatened Thompson with contempt several times, and finally ordered the bailiff to take him away if he did it again (trying to hold up some chart). But Thompson’s body language and tone still showed total disrespect to the end. I would have thrown him in lockup long before that.
You just do not act like that before a judge, period. Especially if you’re an attorney.
” Thompson claims that the Bar’s pursuit of him is motivated by his Christian activism and is designed to silence his outspokenness.”
That seems pretty clear.
Jack Thompson (BatJack!).... PING!
Good to see what Jack’s been up to - it has the same entertainment value as a train wreck. I will admit to having bought into his cries of persecution when I first encountered him here on FR but let’s face it - the behavior speaks for itself. The problem with that is that it tends to delegitimize whatever valid complaint he may have had. It is extremely difficult to give his claims regarding the video game industry due consideration when he’s spitting venom and threatening to sue everybody in sight. Jack knows this, which leads quite a few of us to suspect that it isn’t about the cause, it’s all about Jack. IMHO, of course.
IT seems to me that when the first give the bar exam, they should also include a sanity exam. Jack would have never passed and this whole thing could have been avoided. ;~))

That is true, however, he sure did hate Janet Reno....

JT is a real POS.
I had an intense conversation with him on FR a few years ago regarding the Heath High School shootings from Dec. 1997.
He preyed on grieving families to try to make money for himself.
He tried some pity part antics on FR for a while but I’m glad to see his sorry ass outta here.
*snort* I’ll have to show this to our almost 18 yr. old son. He and his online gaming friends love to trash this guy.

I wonder who has the record. He only threatened me twice.

That's his MO. I know one of the lawyers for a game company he sued, and he's sued her individually on specious claims that are always thrown out. This guy files a lawsuit more often than I change my socks.''
Unfortunately, the American court system does not allow for oubliettes -- the root of the word is Latin for "to forget." An oubliette is somewhere, very small and very dark, where you put someone you choose to forget about.
