Thompson Goes After Rockstar Mom
This has got to me some sort of new low, or manifestation of further neuroses for Jack Thompson. He’s taken his crusade against “murder simulator” GTA IV to a whole new level by writing a scathing, critical letter…to Rockstar head honcho Strauss Zelnick’s mom. Apparently Thompson is under the impression that everyone is still imbilically attached to their mother’s, even into middle age, and finds the harrassing of innocent older women to be an acceptable way to further his cause.
Some choice cuts from the letter include Thompson questioning Mrs. Zelnick’s parenting skills and philosophies:
“Maybe you, Mrs Zelnick, were so taken by your handsome son that you spared the rod and spoiled the child. That would explain why he has brought you, by the way he presently acts, to shame.”
And even more baffling, pinning the apparent crimes of the son onto the completely uninvolved mother…wtf?
“Your son, this very moment, is doing everything he possibly can to sell as many copies of GTA IV to teen boys. If you trained up Strauss to do this, then shame on you,”
“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”
“Your son, this very moment, is doing everything he possibly can to sell as many copies of GTA IV to teen boys. If you trained up Strauss to do this, then shame on you”
Lastly, and most hilariously, was Thompson’s link in to Mother’s Day:
“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.”
If only all of this were a joke… If you want to protest the game, you go right ahead, but you leave people’s moms out of it Jack. I can feel a whole round of “Yo’ Mama” jokes welling up in the internets.
