GamePolitics (delayed) coverage of Jack Thompson trial... OVERRULED!

Avalith | March 19, 2008 | News | Misc 
While we're still waiting on a decision on Thompson's bar trial, GamePolitics.com has decided to humor us with some (delayed) coverage of what exactly went on during the trial in an investigative series they're running. Shortly after part one was posted on the site, His Thompsonness was not amused and decided to prosecute GamePolitics and its parent company ,the ECA, for various offenses that, as usual, are protected under the First Amendment or are nonissues entirely.

This is part two of the series, laden with many things Jack Thompson doesn't want you to know about... hence the constant shouting of "OBJECTION!" in the court room among various other disruptions that can only be thought up by Thompson himself.
TUMA: Can you just maybe try to explain briefly why you determined to file the [Bar] complaint…?

MOORE: Because his actions were outrageous…

JT: Excuse me, Your Honor, I move to strike his answer that I was outrageous. That’s not really responsive.

DT: Overruled.

JT: That’s a characterization.

DT: Overruled…

    Little Jack stepped on a Tack, and was shot headon...
    I smashed his skull, broke his frown,
    and buried him 12 feet under....

    Does this guy learn ANYTHING? Apperently not

    Jesus Christ. I'm reading the full article now. Thomson keeps making an ass of himself, going so far as to call an Alabama judge "incompetent". What a freaking nutjob.

    LOL!
    He sure is a rebel in court isn't he?
    Why do they still let him in in court?
    I can already think that when people see Jack appear in court, they will either think: "Oh, no, not that lowlife." Or either: "Hey, the idiot is here too? Cool! This will be entertaining!" *Gets chips*
    Really, with him in court, it's almost like being in a circus, and he's of course the dumb clown with a sad face.

    Why the *bleep* hasn't his licence gotten revoked yet??? He's making a joke of the entire damn judicial branch BY HIMSELF!

      Them doing it properly to begin with helps to ensure there's no comeback for him, although in this case he seems to be re-affirming them that their choice to investigate him wasn't an ill-based one at all.

      It'd probably help him to realize that and stop playing the suicide lawyer role.

        I doubt he will. The instant Jack Thompson gets disbarred, he'll scream martyrdom and FOX News will eat it up like they eat up all his other bull crap.

    This certainly makes a very good read. I hope the next installments are as good.
