I bet Jack Thompson couldn't even hold a .45 without peeing his pants. One question for every gamer: "If Jack Thompson hates video games so much then why is he the head of the ESRB?" I personally want him FIRED!!! And there isn't any relation to video-game violence and real life terrorism, the so called 'study' is a 100% LIE!. How did he even get to be the head in the first place?

It would be funny if JT was assaulted with airsoft guns when he makes one of his speeches.

JT - "I wish I weren't here"... Don't we all Jack, don't we all... I agree with Lazygit. We in the UK have occasionally got in the news shootings and stabbings. When we hear about it, the population says its bad, etc. Nothing about people shooting up their schools etc. I have played violent video games for years and blaming them shootings on V.G's is an insult, not only to the families of the victims, but to the people who design the games and even others who play them.

Hey I wouldnt say ur gonna get flamed for what you said . . . Im from Texas and I believe America as a Country has many problems we need to solve before we go around the world telling others how they should act. One of those problems is all the shootings that are happening and I agree tighter gun laws would definitely help, but then some poor sob will go quote the constitution about right to bear arms . . . eventhough they are misinterpreting what the founding fathers meant. My take on it is . . . the right for the military to bear arms in times of need . . . aka Revolutionary War, just example nothing more. On another note I doubt the laws will change anytime soon . . . seems like our politicians cant compromise on jack crap anymore. But thats just my opinion.

Half Life has made me a better person. I protect the citizens of England (also, Welshy) by hunting down those blood hungry head-crabs.

I wish he would say the names right.

Haha Supersword to the rescue DA DA DADA But that's a good point, I think the only things that I have learnt from video games is that teamwork is always necessary (BF2142) and what to do if there's a sudden outbreak of pesky head-crabs (Call Supersword)
