The demise of Jack Thompson's legal career eclipsed just about everything else that happened this week, and with good reason. The guy just had it coming. I'm not sure there's any downfall more American than that of the self-appointed moral better. At least in the end, Thompson wasn't caught smoking rock and playing Mortal Kombat with a toothless crack whore, so he didn't go down a hypocrite. But he did go down. Sic semper dickclowns.
The week in originals, highlights here, more on the jump.
