I called earlier today and left a respectable message on his machine asking to discuss his views one on one.
Of course, you can all jsut call him a dickhead and laugh at him. I honestly don't care XD

Oy, no. If people call, don't be a bunch of jackasses since all that'll do is add more fuel to the fire. he best way to reach anyone is in a well thought out, respectable manner. Name calling does nothing.

I know that full well, but I really have no power over the situation. I left a respectful polite message, but I honestly have no faith in EVERYONE doing that.
There's always gonna be one idiot who'll ruin it for us all, and I've come to except it.
but mainly, I just wanted an excuse to call the guy a dickhead in this thread

Been there. 
As I've stated elsewhere, the last people you typically want to make random phonecalls to, even inoffensive ones, are lawyers.

I called at 1 this afternoon. I said I wanted to discuss his stance on videogames with a one-on-one conversation. He said to stick to listening to news reports and hung up.

I'd hope so- he's a Miami attorney.
I really do almost feel sorry for the man- he's gotten in WAY over his head by bothering gamers. XD

I dunno. He chose a pretty good target. I mean, he's playing off the notion that gamers don't have enough discretion to reasonably rationalize what goes on in games.I really do almost feel sorry for the man- he's gotten in WAY over his head by bothering gamers. XD
And if anything demonstrates a lack of basic discretion...
