Jack Thompson is a menace to the civil liberties of all gamers. He distorts the facts to stereotype us, and has repeatedly made unfounded, unreasonable attacks on video games, video game companies, and the video game community in general. His malicious nature is especially apparent from some of his statements, as can be viewed at http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jack_Thompson. The response of the gaming community to Thompson's remarks has been largely disorganized, with many violent/threatening/offensive statements made, which dissuade the general public from siding with the gaming community on this issue. Indeed, this response seems only to play directly into Jack's need for attention. Thus, to win the respect of the general public, and to stop feeding Jack's need for attention, the gaming community at large should take the following actions:

1) Widely publicize the following quote - Instant Messenger profiles, forum/email signatures, forums, personal web sites, etc., along with a message encouraging others to do the same, and possibly linking to this petition.
"Islam promotes the killing of innocent people. The Quran requires the infidel, whether Jew or Christian, to be killed. ... That's a core essence of the religion. ... Muhammad was a pirate who killed infidels and who advocated the killing of infidels. Not a nice guy. Osama bin Laden is in keeping with his fine tradition."
-Jack Thompson
This quote is undeniably racist, and will demonstrate to the general public Jack's unreasonable mindset in a way that video game related quotes will not.

2) Other than the spreading of this quote, simply cut off all response to Jack's actions. Do not give him the satisfaction of any more attention. This may seem to be contradicted by the previous point, but, keep in mind, that the former is not the type of attention that even a man such as Jack will like, as it shows him to be incredibly racist. The man thrives on the chaotic media and community responses to his actions, not organized responses such as this.

United like this, we can stop him.
