Gamepolitics has up two responses from Jack Thompson to David Walsh. I'm sure you'll be surprised to find out that somewhere along the way, he says something totally insane. I mean, I won't even get into how he considers the yet unreleased Bully to be a Columbine simulator. Earth to Jack - you guys lost that case ... let it go.
This one, is just funny.
Churchill did once make the inference that Hitler was worse than Satan, but calling Hitler a Nazi? Well, gee, that's just not terribly ... anything ...
"Hey Hitler."
"What?"
"You're A NAZI!"
"Well .... duh"
And what oh what does Jack have with Nazis anyway? It must be something frightful in that man's mind to convince him the world is just one more video game away from the next Holocaust.
And who uses words like tut-tutting these days?
But, that's not as much crazy as:
That's right ... Bill Gates is personally responsible for training Malvo to kill using Halo. Now, what was it that Dr. Walsh found so objectionable about Thompson? Oh yes, "Your commentary has included extreme hyperbole".
As they say in the courtroom .... case closed. Dr. Walsh, props to you for raising the level of this debate by helping cast aside some of the dead, insane, weight. Let's hope some of the media outlets follow suit.
