Destructoid reader warns Jack Thompson about the true evil in America photo

This letter was shared with us by Destructoid reader Steve Menegozzi AKA kariomart, where he made a shocking and terrible discovery about the true source of corruption in America's youth. Usually we wouldn't run something like on the front page, but it's just too damning a story not to tell. This was sent directly to Jack Thompson and so far has been ignored. Does Jack truly not care about our children? Just read this shocking letter and prepare to be sickened to the core:

Dear Mr. Thompson,

I have come across a STARTLING discovery after doing months of research on school shootings and other related violent acts.  What is the one undeniable commonality between Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, John Lee Malvo, and the VT gunman?

No, not video games. This is something far more sinister and pervasive in our society: they were ALL owners and wearers of denim pants, or "blue jeans," as is their slang term with the youth.  I've researched these "jeans" and discovered that they are readily available in literally thousands of retailers.  Worse than that, they are marketed to our children and I have discovered that they are even tailored to their body sizes!  With names like Wrangler (obvious play on the word "strangler") and Levis (obvious anagram for "evils"), it is a wonder we haven't seen more school shootings.

These murder accessories have no business being in our society of sunshine and lollipops.  Therefore Mr. Thompson, I implore you: join me in my crusade against jeans and help save our kids.  I am giving you until 7:38 pm Friday to accept my offer.  If you decline, I will have no other choice but to assume you support this vial leg wear and are a proponent of corrupting our nation's children and I will do everything in my power to stop you.

Kindly,
Steve Menegozzi

There you have it. I am fully convinced that this is the real reason why people go insane. The evidence is there, the correlation exists, so it HAS to be -- yet Jack Thompson does nothing. If you truly believe, as I do, that this is a serious problem, I suggest you let Thompson know. Let everybody know. Spread the word, because we have to fight this before Levi claims another.

I took my jeans off as soon as I read this. I can't believe we haven't made the connection before.

Why are my coworkers giving me funny looks?

Great letter. Also, how come we never noticed that connection? Damn, good thing we aren't crime scene investigators, or we would suck.

I can't be the only one who noticed this: in the titular pic, how in the hell did those girls manage to make those whips draw circles on the dude's back?

Would have been better if he had spelled "vile" correctly.

I hate to be the killjoy, but that doesn't really work, in my opinion. It's an incredibly weak joke, and the analogy doesn't remotely hold up, even in a humorous context. I'm pretty surprised that this made the front page. It's a noble effort, but... ugh. No.

To any guy willing to give up their pants, might I suggest one of these as a replacement?



I'll pay for it.

Also, cocks, indeed.

And since when are we putting whipping twinks on the front page? I want a vote in what goes on the front page!

I knew my stockpile of corduroy and wool pants would come in handy someday. Who's laughing now, Charlotte?

Hmmm.. Isn't Jack Thompson also common to all of these cases?

That letter is an awesome piece of satire. I contribute 35 internets to kariomart from my dump truck.

I'm pretty sure all those school shooters also drank water and likely ate bread. Someone should look into that.

Naturally enough this is exactly what Levi Strauss wanted when he invented jeans. What an evil genius he was indeed.

Enjoy your lawsuit for writing him a letter with sarcasm. Just pray he isn't wearing the Batman mask, there's no controlling him then.

How the fuck do you whip in a circle? What kind of superhuman creatures are these that can distort the worldly physiscs to make a whip flick a full, perfect 360 degrees?

LOGIC ERROR

Also, about the actual article; it was kinda funny, but not really that imaginative. Needs more dry, offensive, tallented humour. Otherwise, you can basically replace the word "jeans" with anything - possessing hair at some point in their lives, going to school, being intensely erotic with a variety of cakes, scones and other teatime delights, watching George Foreman Grill adverts, cloning an army of genetically superior mutants comprised soley of pigs, tractors and contempary jazz, wondering about the political implications of your sinus infection; all the things kids get up to these days.

Actually, I'm somewhat talking via anal vibrations here; it was kinda clever, I suppose. I would just have preffered it to be a bit more detailed, with a bit more dubious evidence to "prove" it.

From what I can deduce, the man against the wall was second canvas for their physics defying game of tic-tac-toe, as the girl to the right already has marks on her back.

As for the article, nice. Don't know why some people are thinking about it too much "oh well he could've done it better!" Dude, he did SOMETHING to piss of Jack Thompson, that should be enough I think.
