Don't flatter yourself Jacky boy.
We all knew this would happen. educate; He did the same with Canis Canem Edit, or Bully.
QuoteThe fact that the lawyer, killed on Niko?s first mission, would bring up video games, makes it clearly a reference to me?
BECAUSE HE'S THE ONLY PERSON AGAINST VIDEO GAMES.
Also: how do i used elipsis
As long as they're not actually using Jack Thompson himself, isn't it perfectly legal?
"using one of your games to threaten my physical safety"
Hahah, so he thinks it's a death-threat?
I have no doubt taht it was a reference to him and his followers, but he should suck it up and deal. If he doesn't want them to hate him so much, he shouldn't be such a douche.
And furthermore, WHY does he want it out? Gonna hurt his reputation?

I'm pretty sure that's irrelevant in this case, as parody is an issue of copyright. Thompson is likely not copyrighted.
i've got no idea as to what the laws say about fictional portrayals of individuals though but it would appear to not be challengeableish

I suppose you're right about parodies not being the issue, but either way, he can't really do anything.
Stop giving this fag attention.
I once had a dream of me driving a VW bug and I wrecked and I died.
I cant get a Vintage bug because of this. :'(

Your wording made me lol pretty hard. caterpie;
I lol'd so hard at the bisexual pedophile part.
In my book, he's a winner for this. I'll idolize him if he can actually pull it off.

He won't.
Not after all his previous failures.
