'''John Bruce "Jack" Thompson''' is a former lawyer and an outspoken and effective critic of video games and their role in inciting violence by children.  [[Liberals]] have vilified him because he has exposed the harm done by video games. He has frequently sought justice against videogame companies, such as Take Two Interactive, who have insisted on publishing violent, sexually explicit and/or obscene games. He was disbarred in July 2008.<ref>[http://kotaku.com/5054772/jack-thompson-disbarred Kotaku.com; Thompson disbarred]</ref>

In 2005, Thompson struck back at the video game industry with a satirical offer to donate money if a developer created a game he described. The game would involve a father, whose son has been murdered by a violent video game addict, getting his own back on the makers of violent video games. His intent was to put callous developers in the shoes of people who are victimized in video games, such as women. He called this his "Modest Proposal". Pretending he was serious -- or perhaps [[http://www.conservapedia.com/Liberal_stupidity not realizing he was joking]] -- some independent developers pushed out shovelware which barely met his terms in [[http://www.conservapedia.com/Liberal_deceit a failed attempt to publically embarrass him]]. However, no major developers dared to meet his challenge.
