Yet more Jack

Well done Penny-Arcade for doing what Jack Thompson didn't have the balls to do. These Jack Thompson stories get funnier everytime I read them, the man clearly is an idiot.

- First he gets at ROCKSTAR for the hot coffee mod created by a THIRD PARTY.
- Then he attacks The sims for having CENSORED nudity that can be modded and removed, once again by Third parties
- Then he attacks Killer 7 for having an "Explicit" sex scene, though unaware that there is no nudity so how can it be explicit?
- He insults every gamer cause he can't win his arguements (see VGcats)
- An agency he said supported him made it clear they did not
- Then he makes a lame attempt at satire by urging developers to make a game that highlights the problems with violent games (parents losing children due to them replicating stuff from violent games they shouldn't be playing)
- Now he's weaselled out of paying a charity (like he said he would), claiming it was satire he didn't mean it. (Someone did make a GTA mod for his proposal)

Penny-Arcade's Gabe and Tycho donated the $10,000 that JT should've if he was telling the truth with his proposal. Further proof that real gamers have balls and are willing to help when they can.

You're a sad man Jack. Stop trying to blame videogames for every problem imaginable. Actually don't, I would like to read more idiotic stuff you've done in the future.

At first I was scared and angry that America would back this loser and gaming would take a kick in the teeth (especially when someone as powerful as hilary clinton is on your side). Now I can't help but laugh at the hole he's dug himself.

Yes this is adding fuel to the fire. Yes this is giving an attention seeking whore their attention but it's funny nether the less.
