Jack Thompson should be disbarred
Unfortunately, I don't think that sheer incompetence and stupidity is sufficient grounds for disbarment. One can only dream.
A week or so ago, Take-Two, the publisher of such... "delights... as Grand Theft Auto and Bully filed a preemptive suit against Jack Thompson, the Internet's very own enfant terrible with a persecution complex in which you could turn a semi around. They're trying to prevent him from taking legal action in an attempt to prevent the publication of Manhunt 2 and GTA 4. His response is perhaps the least professional thing I've ever read.
Note to legal practitioners: quoting Psalm 35 and applying it to yourself makes you look really stupid. Further note: calling opponents dumb who have defeated you every time you've entered the courtroom is, well, kind of dumb.
This man is a disgrace to the legal profession and I really hope that the disbarment proceedings filed last month are successful.
