Like Castlevania ‘s Dracula, everyone’s favorite former Florida attorney has risen from the grave yet again. Even disbarment wasn’t enough to deter disgraced anti-videogame nutjob activist Jack Thompson from pressing on with his one-man crusade against violent video games.

According to a new GamePolitics.com story, Thompson is now manning a column on staunchly right-wing website Human Events.

In an interesting move, Thompson bragged about his new job in a personal message to GamePolitics yesterday:

This new ESRB bandaid just gets more of the camel’s nose into the video game industry’s tent. Look for a federal law prohibiting sale of mature games to minors in Obama’s first term. It will be wildly popular with parents in both parties, as a recent video game industry poll proves. The new statutory approach is constiutionally [sic] bullet proof…

PS: Hey, I have a new job that began today, and I’m not saying what it is, but you kids won’t be pleased!

Really. That’s the man’s actual post.

One has to wonder what self-respecting website would want to hire a disbarred lawyer who submitted pornography in court filings to write a column. In any case, at least gamers can resume making Jack jokes.
