It's student-hunting season again

I want to talk about Eric got-damn Thompson. This Lance Bass-looking motherfucker sold guns not only to the Oldboy wannabe that shot up Virginia Tech, but also to the cracker that shot up Northern Illinois University. And what’s Eric got-damn Thompson got to say about the whole thing: “I’m still blown away by the coincidences.

Well yeah, motherfucker. I’m just as stunned as you. You sell guns. People use guns to shoot people. What a got-damn coincidence that your guns were used to shoot some people. Not even Alanis Morissette could’ve seen that shit coming.

And I was also fucking amazed when I read about Christian conservative attorney Jack Thompson blaming all this shooting shit on video games again, like there ain’t no other possible got-damn reason on God’s green earth for a motherfucker to go batshit and blow away another person. Jack Thompson’s letter to the Northern Illinois University president is a laugh-riot. I’m assuming Jack Thompson isn’t related to Eric “Don’t Call Me Lance Bass” Thompson, but both these Thompsons sure got a family resemblance of idiotic statements.

Truth is, ain’t nobody ever gonna find a satisfactory reason why Steven Kazmierczak killed those people, but we damn sure know how he killed those motherfuckers — and it wasn’t with a subscription to World of Warcraft. Shit. It was with a few guns. Bought from Eric Thompson, who also made Virginia Tech possible.

If I’d prescribed Ambien to both Anna Nicole and to Heath Ledger, you bet your got-damn ass I’d be up on Capital Hill right now getting ass-raped by Arlen Specter. But this Eric Thompson motherfucker ain’t gonna get one damn question thrown at him because he’s a legal-selling motherfucker, and it is just a crying got-damn shame that he sold some guns to two mentally deranged motherfuckers that decided to go Full Metal Jacket on their peers.

I think Eric Thompson needs to get himself a new line of work. Maybe he can hook up with Brett Ratner, since both of the motherfuckers have a talent for producing pointless violence.

Right chadachada... because it's so easy to go on a chainsaw-or-bat-wielding rampage and kill 32 people. Or to even walk into a school with a chainsaw. Ignore the facts that guns were the chosen method of destruction in every one of these massacres. Why? Because a semi-auto handgun is designed for no other purpose than to kill people quickly, accurately, and with great ease. They're the most lethal weapons on the planet, and they're readily available here in the good ol' USA for purchase by people with histories of mental illness. God forbid we take a look at the legality of these destructive weapons... lets focus on totally speculative reasons why people get killed instead of facing the fact that bullets + brains = dead folks.

I'll debate Jack Thompson. Sign me up!!! Be real easy to show how he misrepresents studies to the media, and how he distorts correlation and equates it to causation. How he uses tests on increased aggression levels and equates them to causing violence. That would be a slam dunk.

Mr Pappzy:

Guns=Death :(

Games=Fun :)

How can jack*n00b*thompson get them confused?

Ignoring Jack Thompson...

If students had been allowed to carry guns on campus, do you really think V-Tech or NUI would've happened, or happened nearly as badly? Those deranged people may have still killed students, even if guns weren't in their possession. They may have used homemade bombs, bats, chainsaws, whatever the hell they wanted, it just happened that guns were the easiest and most accessable.

Chad:

No offense, but that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. You don't solve a gun problem by giving MORE people a gun--that's like saying we can solve the AIDS infection problem by just giving EVERYone AIDS.

2/19/2008 7:04 PM

Ryan:

No, it's not like that at all.

I am fully in favor of gun control, but it's a well-documented fact that gun ownership DECREASES the amount of gun-related crime. Every cop I know encourages everyone he/she knows to own and carry a gun whenever it is legal to do so, because that is the most certain means of defending yourself against ANY attack, including firearms.

It's nothing like AIDS, and your claim that it is shows a distinct lack of thought on the matter.

Shocked to see that your "retraction" goes from calling out the real Samuel L. Jackson, to calling out the fack, figment of some writers imagination Samuel L. Jacksom. Way to show all of us video game supporters that your credability is nothing less then laughable.

Wow, Jack.
Just, wow...
Your obviously amazing debate skills must sure come in handy during those huge trials.
And you're infinitely wise vocabulary must have judges fearing you.
But in all seriousness, your immaturity knows no bounds.

Gamer X:

Whats strange is that the last game he played before the events that occured was Sonic the Hedgehog. So i really dont think video games had any effect on his disposition.

Just like movies and music, they do not have any effect on the way people behave towards others. If it's in their personality it just is.

Ventus:

"Unfortunately, you could fit what you know about school shootings and their causes in a sleeve of Titleist golf balls."

Is that where you keep your knowledge of school shootings at? Because from what I can tell, you and the real Samuel J. have about the same background to be "experts"

SamJack, Badass:

I'm gonna disregard that you ain't once managed to spell attorney. What the fuck is 'atto'?
While I'm pretty damn sure the above post ain't the real Jack Thompson, I know those other posts were, and that means your ass is still lurking, so I'll say this once, and only once: You asked for a debate, so I'm ready for a got-damn debate. Bring it on, Jack Thom. Let's go. A man's got to stand up for what he believes in even when he thinks the the opposition is beneath his pasty-white ass.
And I'm glad you liked Black Snake Moan. Sincerely. That let's me know you ain't always an unhinged nutbag--you've got some cool in there somewhere. Just not when you're anywhere near a public got-damn forum.

I'm not sure what JT means by his second post - his post is real? He's really challenging the real Sam Jackson to a real golf match? Or is he really challenging the not real Sam Jackson to a real debate about a not real issue?

I'm really confused, but then I'm not an attorney at law and really don't understand this unreal law-speak.

2/19/2008 2:20 PM

Darsh:

HAH. I'd just like to draw everyone's attention to the fact that Thompson realized this was the blog of the 'fake' Samuel L Jackson a whole 10 minutes after his original response (presumably the time period he triumphantly sent this link to Kotaku).

Jack Thompson - the Walking Talking Joke.

2/19/2008 2:32 PM

Chopperlink:

Jack Thompson, why don't you just leave the games alone and find someone else to sue. You are really making yourself look like a jackass.

2/19/2008 2:39 PM

Johnson:

Wow, Jack. You've really outdone yourself. 'You gamer idiots'. That's all you can say? If I remember correctly, youre the one who thought this blogger was Samuel L. Jackson. Yeah, we must be the idiots.

I've been playing video games since I was 3, and I am now 19. I've played some of the sickest games, and seen some of the sickest things anyone will ever see, and you dont see me shooting up my university, do you? Games dont cause school shootings, people who are f*cked up in the head who can buy guns as easily as they can buy pencils cause school shootings.

Also to those replying to Chad: his points wasnt that anything else would have been just as dangerous as a gun. He was saying if they didnt have access to guns, they would have found something else and killed people with THAT. A mentally f*cked up person is a mentally f*cked up person and if that mentally f*cked up person wants to kill people, that mentally f*cked up person will find a way to kill people. Also, 32 people were not killed. Get your facts straight.

ryuclan:

oh wow...When I saw JT on the news using school shootings to promote his cause I thought he was the
scummiest muthafucka on earth. Well I guess I was right. First of all Sam L Jackson should kick your ass for
assuming it was actually him and never even apologizing for jumping to conclusions. Second you have no life
dude, obviously you spend your time googling your own name, and finding murders you can blame on gamess
For a lawyer you don't seem too smart. Also, you ain't no damn "School Shootings Expert" you're the laughing
stock of....the world and nobody takes you seriously. Go away.

At least we gamer 'idiots' can tell fantasy from reality Jack ;)

gj_theWhite:

Solid argument there Mr. Thompson, although I feel with my two degrees and research position with my alma mater I could offer an argument to the third clause.

We don't have anyone in the UK quite as entertaining as you when it comes to anti-gaming/anti-gamer sentiment, so for that - and nothing else, ever - I applaud you. I think violent media in the hands of youngsters is an important issue, and comments like yours here and on other sites just show how uninterested in the actual issue you are.

I continue to read your stuff because I genuinely think "perhaps this will be the day he pulls out his ace-in-the-hole". For now though, with comments like your last, I guess I'll keep on waiting.

2/20/2008 1:42 PM

Andy:

Jack Thompson evidently can't tell someone 'simulating' Samuel L Jackson from reality!

This is shocking an unacceptable.

Mr. Thompson I think watching all those S.L.J movies has turned you into a dangerous individual who will likely act out your sad deranged fantasy of being S.L.J and shoot some people up because in your warped mind you think you are a 'badass mutherf*cker'.

I doubt whoever sold you see Black Snake Moan checked that you were mentally capable of handling the product before selling it to you. Did they even ask you for I.D?

Of course it's not your fault, the movies turned you into a dangerous potential killer with sick fantasies.

Don't worry Jack, I'll hire a real lawyer that'll make sure that those evil filmakers never make another Samuel L Jackson movie and I'll also sue the distributors so that the DVDs of the films won't be sold to vulnerable folks such as your good self.

Meantime stop watching those Jackson simulators before you end up putting a laod of Snakes on a Plane!

Wow, great response Jack, it really shows just how intelligent and mature you are. Bravo, seriously.

MJM: AIDS and guns cannot be equated. Historically, "an armed society is a polite society". If you KNOW
that a significant number of the people around you are similarly armed, you are LESS likely to "start
somethin'" than if you know that NOBODY is armed.

T. Durden:

I get a lot of scammer emails...you know, the ones claiming you've won $10 million and have to give up all
of your personal information to claim it, or the ones telling you that they have cancer and you are their only
hope of getting millions out of Nigeria.

I used to mess around with them, see how long I could keep them on the hook. Now, I'm just going to give
them Jacky Boy's personal info and let them bug the hell out of him. He wants to paint us gamers as vile,
evil, disgusting creatures? Fine. Have fun taking a call at 2 in the morning from a man who wants you to
send him $5000 to send you a supposed trunk full of cash. Or get odd letters in the mail from scammers.
Or just get hammered with all sorts of scammer emails.

Oh, and trust me. They will call, email, and send letters. They used to call up the fake voicemail I set
up all the time. And they would send all sorts of crazy letters. Good times. Good times.

Jack Thompson, Atto:

Mr. Jackson, I enjoyed your post about NIU and about me. Unfortunately, you could fit what you know about school shootings and their causes in a sleeve of Titleist golf balls. I'm a six handicap, and would love to play you a match anywhere anytime.

More importantly, Mr. Jackson, I saw you and the Jack Thompson spoof at the Spike TV Video Game Awards Show. Very funny, really.

Here's a proposal: Why don't you debate me on this issue of whether violent video games cause real world violence. I'll do it anywhere, anytime. You name it.

I dare you.

Jack Thompson, 305-666-4366, amendmentone@comcast.net

PS: Saw you in Black Snake Moan this weekend. I thought you deserved an Oscar for your performance. Brilliant.
