Jack Thompson calls for Obama to ban violent video games altogether

Jack Thompson no longer wants to keep games from just children…he wants all violent games banned from absolutely everyone. That goes for those old enough to play them. Take a look at this snippet from a letter Mr. Thompson wrote to President Obama…

An industry, then, that will not keep its adult products from children, while claiming it does, must be deprived of its opportunity to sell these adult products to anyone. This is the price this industry must pay for more than a decade of deception and death. Game over.

See, this is why we need to keep an eye on Jack Thompson. Will Obama actually listen to the words of Thompson? I really doubt it…but there will be others out there that take what he says to heart.
