Name sounded familiar, for those who are wondering who this guy is, he's a lawyer that blames video games

He may be a disbarred Florida lawyer to some, but to me he'll always be Clancy of the Overflow.

You missed Thompson's Press release that has such pearls as:

Thompson always wanted to own a Bar. Now, armed with multiple US Supreme Court rulings that no state bar can do what it has done to Thompson, he is set to own that Bar.


He's such a knob. Hope he dies quietly.

man he is a retard, I wish everyone would just stop talking about him though now he's effectively useless. I also read what 3dee did, that disbarment like this is quite unusual and _extremely_ serious, so hopefully his ability to attention whore will diminish rapidly. But I suspect all the game link whore news sites will keep publishing everything they can about him to feed his powerz just that little bit more

Jack Thompson is so disbarred, he can't even file briefs in his underwear drawer.
