Suze'Rain	Posted - 2008.06.05 16:39:00 - [9] He'll still be screaming his insane tripe as an "expert" at any fox news article that wants a "videogames are Evil" soundbite, however. Unless we all mobilise every time he appears and bomb the news studios/events he's at with statments of fact tto make sure veryone in the world knows he's an insane fraud.
Micheal Dietrich Terradyne Networks	Posted - 2008.06.05 16:45:00 - [10] Edited by: Micheal Dietrich on 05/06/2008 16:45:28 Quote: the measure--if imposed--would prohibit Thompson from practicing law in the state of Florida for the next 10 years Won't stop him from re-upping in another state (cept Alabama it seems) Aside from that it's nice to see he's burning as many bridges as possible. Hey, lets insult the supreme court. Lets insult the former governor. Lets **** off as many people as we can. Way to go Jack, your a real class act. EDIT: he'll blame his desbarment on video games.

MAXSuicide The Ludovico Technique	Posted - 2008.06.05 16:58:00 - [11] Originally by: Micheal Dietrich he'll blame his desbarment on video games. Rockstar paid them all off to turn against him. Its the logical conclusion.
Jacob Mei	Posted - 2008.06.05 17:09:00 - [12] His disbarment ruins his creditability so its likely the likes of Fox News wont be requesting him to come back as a guest speaker any time soon. Disbarment I would imagine is a pretty big red flag that surely is placed in some sort of record. Any state that he would apply to have a licence in would surely see this guy caused alot of grief for his courts and would have to be insane to give him a licence. -------------------------------- To borrow a phrase: Players who post are like stars, there are bright ones and those who are dim.

Jacob Mei	Posted - 2008.06.05 18:45:00 - [14] Originally by: Lithalnas he was a pain in our ass for a decade, now its a decade of sweet justice. If only it were that easy, the guy will be the new raving loony on the steps of the local court house. We wont get rid of him anytime soon, we just wont have to listen to some mad man with the powers of a lawyer at his disposal. -------------------------------- To borrow a phrase: Players who post are like stars, there are bright ones and those who are dim.
Imperator Jora'h	Posted - 2008.06.05 18:48:00 - [15] Originally by: Jacob Mei Disbarment I would imagine is a pretty big red flag that surely is placed in some sort of record. Any state that he would apply to have a licence in would surely see this guy caused alot of grief for his courts and would have to be insane to give him a licence. Pretty much this. Ask any attorney and they'll tell you applying to sit for the Bar exam is worse than the exam itself. Among other things you have to list EVERY brush with the legal system you have ever had (got a speeding ticket when you were 16...goes on list). Something like being disbarred in one state will almost certainly make you completely ineligible to sit for the Bar in another state. Most states have some reciprocity such that if one state bar hates you they all hate you. Of course if he had already been accepted to practice law in another state I suppose he could continue there but otherwise he is SOL (thankfully). -------------------------------------------------- "Of course," said my grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, "there's no paradox if I shoot you!"

It wouldn't surprise me if they raided his house one day and caught him playing that. He'd claim it was research or something I'm sure.
Slade Trillgon Siorai Iontach Brotherhood of the Spider	Posted - 2008.06.05 23:37:00 - [22] I predicted disbarment in two earlier threads about this worthless POS. Disbarment should be a nationaly recognized sentance. If you did something to dishonor the law in one state it should be recognized as an assult to our Constitution and thus be recognized by all 50 states. I can not practice Athletic Training anywhere in the world if I do something that ends up in my Certification being revoked. Slade
Surfin's PlunderBunny Sebiestor tribe	Posted - 2008.06.05 23:53:00 - [23] Slade, because he was disbarred in florida means his credibility is shot nationwide. He can try in another country but it's hard to get excited about taht () () (â;..;)â (")(")
Dau Imperius	Posted - 2008.06.05 23:53:00 - [24] Yeah Fox news really cares about credibility: Bill O'Reiley anyone? But anyways, disbar the bloke. While they are at it, maybe some real charges should be made and perhaps the tosser will go to jail and experience life as someone's...cough Who knows, rockstar could make a game out of it all.

He can try in another country but it's hard to get excited about taht Yeah I am not sure how the regulations work, but it sounds like he can still apply to practice in most other states. Boy I hope my interpretation is incorrect and all 50 states hold up the disbarment. Originally by: Dau Imperius Yeah Fox news really cares about credibility: Bill O'Reiley anyone?

Didn't he commit forms of purgery? Jail time could be instituted, but I doubt the courts would do this since he is facing disbarment. Ditto on O'Reiley!!! Slade Ditto on O'Reiley.

Boy I hope my interpretation is incorrect and all 50 states hold up the disbarment. Technically he could apply to sit for the Bar exam in another state. In practice the states pretty much follow the American Bar Association's professional conduct rules which makes disbarment in one state enough to disbar you everywhere (or prevent you from applying to the Bar). My dad's an attorney and that is what he tells me anyway and I believe him. Getting to sit for the Bar exam is not just a matter of paying a fee and having at it. It is a remarkably insane hill you have to climb. Our buddy here would never get an application through. -------------------------------------------------- "Of course," said my grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, "there's no paradox if I shoot you!"
pwnedgato	Posted - 2008.06.06 04:59:00 - [29] Even though it is nice to see Thompson put in his place I have a strong dislike for the BAR. It wields massive amounts of power, but it was never voted for and was never put into place by an elected official or even confirmed by one... Originally by: Crumplecorn These is a forum for this.

Good to know that it is not an easy process and chance are at least there for the states to deny entrance to sit for the bar. Originally by: pwnedgato Even though it is nice to see Thompson put in his place I have a strong dislike for the BAR. It wields massive amounts of power, but it was never voted for and was never put into place by an elected official or even confirmed by one... In my novice understanding, they create and administer the bar and lay down sentences against lawyers that have acted beyond or in disregard of the common practices accepted by bar. I do not have a clue how that bar was created. I do not have time to do any reasearch on the history of the bar at this point (long workday starting), but having one is better then having not. Could you let me know what other powers they have and what are your major issues with specific powers the bar yields? Slade
Imperator Jora'h	Posted - 2008.06.06 13:49:00 - [34] Originally by: pwnedgato Even though it is nice to see Thompson put in his place I have a strong dislike for the BAR. It wields massive amounts of power, but it was never voted for and was never put into place by an elected official or even confirmed by one... Why would the government get in on it? That'd be a decidedly bad thing. The Bar Association is a professional organization and its rules are there to police themselves. Tons of professions have their own organizations which both set rules and guidelines for their members as well as represent the group to the government (when laws affecting them are proposed) and the public at large. Only when those groups utterly fail to set sufficient professional guidelines will the government step in a legislate rules (which usually just the threat of prompts the organization to tighten their own rules to head that off). -------------------------------------------------- "Of course," said my grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, "there's no paradox if I shoot you!"

Sakura Nihil Stimulus	Posted - 2008.06.06 16:40:00 - [36] Jora'h's on the right track. A lot of high-level professions like lawyers, engineers, and the like police themselves so that the government doesn't have to be a presence in their affairs. I'm just glad to see it work in this whacko's case \o/. Goal Line Blitz, an American Football browser game.
pwnedgato	Posted - 2008.06.06 18:52:00 - [37] Edited by: pwnedgato on 06/06/2008 18:52:41 I understand that many professions have groups to set standards, but in particular I dislike the BAR. It wields an unnatural amount of influence in politics. It usually writes the recommendations for federal judges that the presidents read before making appointments and typically is looked to for a 2nd opinion on the choices the president makes. Also with many members of the senate or congress being lawyers it gives the BAR plenty of influence with them. Originally by: Crumplecorn These is a forum for this.
