This guy is just becoming more and more obnoxious every time I run across an article he's mentioned in. Thoughts?

Grand Theft Auto kills thousands of people every minute.

Ketsui destroys hundreds of helicopters every day.

people just need to STFU about this guy already.

So tired of hearing about him on every fudging corner of the internet.
You're arguing for a universe with fewer waffles in it. I'm prepared to call that cowardice.

and make him a martyr? no thanks.

Just let him disappear into nothingness. All he ever really wanted in the first place was attention and recognition. Ignoring him is the worst punishment he can receive.

Anyone still complaining about Jack Thompson at this point just needs to let him be the dopey motherfucker that he clearly is and let everyone else see him as such. He's well on his way towards that with the sanction hearings, and with enough time he'll eventually fade into obscurity if people would just embrace their inner apathy and stop caring.

Yes, he illogically speaks out against video games, the one thing that we all cherish and love. But as far as "evil anti-video game people" that gaming news websites needlessly cover, JT is one tier lower than Uwe Boll and just worthless, period.

Boll and Thompson should get married. That way they'll nullify each other and phase out from our universe.

In olden days, "oaths" and "swearings" referred to profanity. What was with that?

Also, I'd buy that piece of toast. Your brain on neoconservatism.
