“Jack Thompson
In 2007, Jack Thompson, a Florida lawyer who had previously campaigned against other Grand Theft Auto games, stated he would take various measures to prevent the sale of the game by Rockstar to minors.[66] On 14 March 2007, Rockstar’s parent company, Take-Two Interactive, filed a lawsuit[67] against Thompson in Florida in an attempt to pre-emptively block him from trying to declare its games a public nuisance. It would be a crime to sell games declared to be a public nuisance, effectively banning such games, which they believe would be a violation of First Amendment rights.[68] Thompson responded by filing a countersuit,[69] accusing Take-Two of violating federal RICO statutes (the charge was later dropped), committing perjury, obstruction of justice, and conspiring against him with third parties to deprive him of his civil rights.[70][71]

On 20 April 2007, both parties reached a settlement[72] and agreed to drop their respective lawsuits. Under the terms of the settlement Thompson is barred from suing to block the sale or distribution of any future games published by Take-Two or any of its subsidiaries. He will be restricted to communicating through Take-Two’s attorneys on any future matters. Thompson will still be able to maintain his outspoken stance against the publisher’s titles, as well as still being allowed to act as counsel in lawsuits brought against Take-Two by other parties. For their part, Take-Two agreed to drop its contempt of court lawsuit against Thompson regarding alleged improper conduct during the Bully court hearings in Florida,[73][74] which, if found to be in contempt, would have resulted in Thompson seeing jail time.[75][76][77]

On 18 September 2007, Jack Thompson filed a document[78] with a federal court in Florida that claims that the assassination target of a mission in GTA IV is a lawyer character based upon himself. When the main protagonist enters his office and pulls a gun on him, the lawyer yells “Guns don’t kill people! Video games do!” Thompson has threatened that unless the similarities to himself are removed from the game he will “take necessary and proper means to stop release of the game”.[79]

On 25 April 2008, it was reported in the Metro that Jack Thompson had written a letter to the mother of Strauss Zelnick, Director of Take-Two Interactive. In the letter, which strongly criticised the game, Zelnick and his mother, Thompson called Grand Theft Auto a “murder simulator”. He went on to say that “The pornography and violence that your son traffics in is the kind of stuff that most mothers would be ashamed to see their son putting into the hands of other mothers’ children”. Thompson then questions Strauss Zelnick’s upbringing and says that his mother should be ashamed of herself, and that she “spared the rod and spoiled the child. That would explain why he has brought you, by the way he presently acts, to shame.” He finishes by saying “Happy Mothers’ Day, Mrs Zelnick, which this year is May 11, two weeks after your son unleashes porn and violence upon other mothers’ boys. I’m sure you’re very proud.” Neither Take-Two interactive nor Rockstar Games have made any comment regarding the matter.[80]
