I cant help but think that this will make or break him, if he goes ahead with it.

IMO, break seems most likely, especially if anyone tried to debate him, or is rude, which he won't be able to avoid by ignoring people's questions.

Place your bets now cyn1c42 September 23 2006, 16:08:12 UTC

Will JT's conduct result in him getting thrown off the case like what happened in Alabama?

Re: Place your bets now dustin1986 September 23 2006, 16:29:43 UTC

Yes.

Re: Place your bets now kyouryuu September 23 2006, 19:20:37 UTC

Yes, but Florida officials will still be too daft to disbar the hack.

Re: Place your bets now jojostix September 23 2006, 20:44:23 UTC

I think a better bet is How long until JT gets himself thown off the case

Another exaggerated press release from Jack Thompson... kungfu_tse September 23 2006, 16:29:49 UTC

...and another blunder that will just come and go.

Remember how the Alabama case was going to make the O.J. Simpson case look like "quilting bees"? That of course resulted in him being booted off for "bizarre and childlike behavior".

Or how about the lawsuit against the Floridar Bar? You know, the one he was 100% sure he would win?

Oh yeah, and those protests in New York were spectacular.

And how about that Louisiana law? You know, the one that he knew how to make "constitutional"?

First off, what recent cases, other than Montreal? The Robida case?

Second off, $600 million a low amount? Please, that's almost three times the current PowerBall jackpot($203 million for tonight) and more than three times the amount of the New York Yankees payroll this year($194,663,079).

More hyperbole from a Florida attorney whose made more asinine comments since dinosaurs roamed the Earth.

This half-a-man is trult pathetic, knowing he's lost every case he's ever filed against the industry, not counting on-going cases.

Uh... vansau September 23 2006, 17:07:12 UTC

Is it just me, or is JT's writing ability actually going downhill? Also, why would he let his opponents know what he's going to do? How is that good legal thinking?

Re: Uh... gamepolitics September 23 2006, 17:13:57 UTC

well, I think he's trying to generate some publicity.

I'm sure there's a certain amount of "in your face" with this news in regards to game sites.

Also, I'm quite the mainstream will cover the announcement.
