Crazy Lawyer-on-Cartoonist Action!
In case you haven't been following the story of anti-game lawyer and media talking head Jack Thompson and the guys from the Penny Arcade comic strip, here's the latest. Thompson – widely regarded as a crackpot these days, is trying to get the Seattle police to arrest the real-life Gabe and Tycho for "criminal harassment" based on their back-and-forth e-mail and phone arguments (oh yeah, and the "I Hate Jack Thompson" t-shirt).
The $10,000 donation the guys made in Thompson's name to charity probably didn't help matters much.
If you have no idea what we're talking about, check out the latest below, or more details on Slashdot or GameTab.
