    Man, this thread didn't get much attention. Oh well, I'm still happy.

    That was fun times back in the day. I mean seriously, you had a hand in this.

    How many people can say they helped a man go insane and lose his job!

    I'm shocked I didn't get fired from my job at the time. I mean, I spent pretty much every day for a week doing nothing but write and mail letters, make personal phone calls, and use the company fax machine and printer.

    Wait, who did you call and write to?

    That is a comparison to Hitler. It's like, if someone says, "I'm a vegetarian" and then Rorschach responds, "Hitler was vegetarian". That's Godwin.

    It should be noted that an argument is not automatically invalidated because of Godwin's Law.

    What should be invalidated is anything anyone who calls Godwin's Law in a thread says.

    Godwion's law is self-fulfilling because during all exceptions to the rule, it will STILL be ruined by inevitable discussion of Godwin's law.

    I swear reading this made a little bit more sunshine come in through my window. It's nice to see that this guy is finally revealed to be the true nutcase that he is (though we already knew it long ago), and even better that it's now officially in writing.

    By the way anti, that video is fucking amazing.

    I'm just waiting for his next attempt at being a douche bag.
    He may be disbarred in Florida but that doesn't stop him from passing the bar exam elsewhere.

    He also has a request to the US Supreme Court to block Florida's judgement so we should still get a few more laughs out of this moron.

    I think the next step will be Jack suing himself for ruining his own career.

    I don't know much about how it works, but I sincerely hope that being disbarred in one state would weigh heavily on your chances of being allowed to practice law anywhere else.

    If you get disbarred from one state that pretty much means your legal career is over. You have to apply to take the bar in every state, and the Honor and Ethics committee for a State would not pass over something as significant as disbarment.

    This is going to hit Rockstar hard.

    Unless they can get Hilary Clinton worked up into a tiz, then they're going to have to start spending money on actual marketing for future game releases.

    Eh. i guess Fox will still let him come and rant. Just bill him as a 'Legal expert' or 'Video Game Violence Opinionist' or something rather than 'Media Whore Lawyer'.

    I can't wait till Fox has him back on with the caption "Disbarment Expert" floating underneath his face.
