Rockstar pisses off Jack Thompson…again

By Ross Miller

A new Grand Theft Auto, a new format to upset anti-game advocate Jack Thompson. However, this time, instead of waiting for the controversy, Rockstar decided to simply jumpstart it themselves with a rather entertaining yet obscene nod to their favorite Miami Lawyer. Go to the GTA Liberty City
website and click on one of the overhead e-mails – specifically, click on the one from the lawyer "JT" about "Citizens United Negating Technology (For Life And People's Safety)" (we will let the Joystiq reader figure that one out). Here is a snippet of the fictional letter:

The internet is unambiguous evil. The only things worse than the internet are computer games and liberals.

You get the idea. To the left of the e-mail (highlight the typewriter) is a link to JT's
website (very funny, but please do not go unless you are over 18 or so). GamePolitics.com has received a letter from Jack Thompson citing the website's "obscene assault" on his character, which he claims, "Bisexual pedophile Jack Thompson is the combined message." Somehow I think he is better off letting this one go, and having a good laugh.
