Utah Senate President Threatening Spam Suit

Utah Senate President Threatening Spam Suit

Utah's Senate President is threatening to sue disbarred lawyer Jack Thompson over the unsolicited sending of emails. Thompson, who made a name for himself as a lawyer blaming violent acts on violent video games, has spent his post-lawyer years attempting to convince states to pass anti-violent video game laws. Utah, the only state who considered passing the bill, eventually vetoed it but this has not stopped Thompson from emailing members of the Utah Senate in order to change their minds. Now the president of the Utah Senate is threatening to sue Thompson under the CAN-SPAM anti-spam law and wrote Thompson saying,"I asked you before to remove me from your mailing list. I supported your bill but because of the harassment will not again. If I am not removed I will turn you over to the AG for legal action."
