Online signature campaign for Jack Thompson’s disbarment launched

And the battle between Mr. Jack Thompson and the gaming community wages on. Circulating the internet is a petition asking the Florida Bar Association for the punishment or disbarment of Mr. Thompson from practicing law on the grounds of “severe lack of professionalism, downright bigotry and stereotypical view of what is known as a “gamer.”

It is also alleged in the petition that Mr. Jack Thompson exercises his right to free speech in excess by forcing his views against gamers and utilizing these views to defend stereotyping or bigotry.

We who are known as ‘gamers’ are people from all walks of life, positions of authority, race, creed, gender, culture and nationality. While some people give a bad example to the rest of us, the whole should not be held accountable for the actions of a few troubled individuals.

The petition was created by those from the gaming community and written by Robert Maillet.
