One of the most notorious lawyers in the history of the universe is very close to getting his lawyer status knocked down a couple of notches by the swinging wrecking ball of justice.
According to GamePolitics, attorney and anti-video game activist Jack Thompson is on the verge of being disbarred.
The site posted a transcript of his disciplinary hearing where he took what seemed like a full three minutes to discuss the placement of his podium. Thou sayeth the Thompson…
JUDGE: Go right ahead.
JT: May I move the podium?
JUDGE: No. Just everybody leave it in one spot. That’s the way we usually do it in the courtroom.
JT: Can we change that one spot? No?
JUDGE: I’d prefer that you leave it right there.
JT: Nice. Can I pivot it?
JUDGE: Is that what you’d like, sir?
JT: I’m asking you.
JUDGE: Okay. That’s fine.
JT: I was allowed to move it before. I object strenuously, as I have in the past, to the very notion that this proceeding can even occur on various grounds, any single one of which is fatal –
The judge interrupts him to warn him about making any sweeping moral statements about his case or some motions he filed to try and get his judge thrown off the bench by the State Supreme Court of Florida. Yeah, that’s what you want to do. Piss in the hand of the one person who literally holds your livelihood in the other hand. Make sure you wash your hands when you’re done.
He then begins to object to the proceedings and walks out of the courtroom. Looks like he just wasted his last 1Up.
