I just posted this to see what people had to say about it.

I'm no expert on Michael Moore. I just like the guy and I think he's a good guy.

So Moore lies and misleads and you think he's cool.

Yet according to you Bush lies and misleads and he isn't.

Interesting.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Yep,they are equally evil. :thumbdown:

With "Roger and Me" Michael Moore helped get Roger Smith to step down after moving most of GM's American manufacturing to Mexico.

He got K-MART to stop selling bullets in America.

Moore's "TV Nation" paved the way for comic news shows like America's "The Daily Show".

Oh yeah, the Cannes film festival had to invent an award for "Bowling for Collumbine" because they had never given an award to a documentary.

And, let's not forget his Oscar (as if one could forget THAT speech).

You may disagree with Moore's tactics but, he gets results.

Well, I'm smart enough to know not to go head to head with a Michigander.

but...

* I: wrong, most of the American manufacturing is in Michigan. and Moore had nothing to do with Roger smiths situation

How's Flint doing?

Roger Smith stepped down within a year of "Roger and Me's" release. Coincidence?

*C: He got K-MART to stop selling bullets in America.

*I: wow, the Kmart that is near my neighborhood still sells bullets..hmmpphh.

http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b3bd3b42fd7.htm

My bad, just handgun bullets. Handguns aren't used in hunting. Handguns were invented to kill people.

*C: Moore's "TV Nation" paved the way for comic news shows like America's "The Daily Show".

*I: so what.

Is that a question or a statement eminem? The Daily Show just won an Emmy.

*C: Oh yeah, the Cannes film festival had to invent an award for "Bowling for Collumbine" because they had never given an award to a documentary.

*I: bowling for columbine is not a documentary.

You're going to tell me it is fiction? That was a great script! How'd he get Chaz Heston to sign?

*C: And, let's not forget his Oscar (as if one could forget THAT speech).

*I: i couldn't hear it through all the booing in the audience.

Yeah, he won an Oscar last year... for best DOCUMENTARY. The people who were booing were the same that voted for Moore to win... Americans are weird. Booing a political activist for expressing his opinion... sigh...

*You may disagree with Moore's tactics but, he gets results.

*like what?

Just wait for his next film... about surly Michiganders... It'll change your life.

you can hunt with a hand gun, but it's harder.  A .45 can take down some big game and be enjoyable for those that target shoot.  The handgun to me is for self defense against those that would relieve me of my civil liberties.

All of Moore's movies are edited out of sequence. They give the impression that things happen in a different order than they actually did. This pisses a lot of people off but his documentaries are politically motivated. Most documentaries report things as they happen. Like him or not, Moore uses a different format... an editorial documentary. Many people think a documentary should be more neutral than Moore's take on the genre.

He uses his material to make a point rather than to report the sequence of events. Over time, people have come to accept this form of documentary but Moore will eventually shoot himself in the foot if he keeps doing documentaries out of sequence.

Now, as for "The Daily Show," my original point was this: Without Moore's TV Nation, there would be no "Daily Show." "The Daily Show" borrows more from TV Nation than it borrows from SNL's "Weekend Update."

*i'm guessing it's (Moore's next movie) going to be aboot some rich white guy.

You may be more right than you think. I heard his next show is about George W. Bush.

Oh yes, and as for handguns. Sure you can hunt with them. I have (either the gun sucked... or I did). They were designed for close quarters combat and haven't evolved much since they were conceived... well, they aren't very versitile. Sure, they've evolved. Granted, a handgun will teach you how to aim a larger gun.

You said yourself, your handgun is there to protect your from those who would relieve you of your civil liberties (fascists?). Sounds like you don't plan on using it for deer hunting anytime soon. Handguns ARE fun when used for target practice.

As human killers, handguns work too well. They are easy to obtain and hide in an urban environment.

Most people use handguns responsibly... yes. But handguns ARE the guns that kill people in citys. Who was the last person shot and killed with a rifle in NYC?

Most people aren't murdered with bolt action rifles (Kennedy was a fluke). They are killed with semi-automatic hand guns.

Eliminate hand guns, and you eliminate, at least, 50% of America's gun murders.

Handguns don't save as many lives in a year as they take (Have you ever seen this headline: "Man Saved By Handgun"?)... and people still use them for protection.

not facists, just those that would take from me which is mine. ie: life and possessions

Not while i have a compound bow or a rifle. I know you can kill people with it but that's up to the person who owns it. Many buy for target shooting competitions.

Quote:

can you imagine how nice it would be if they just enforced those laws that are on the books? Moore would have more credibility if he took that route.

Quote:

eliminating handguns is a eutopian dream. If it could be possible to eliminate ALL guns then i'd believe it. Gun laws that restrict the rights of those responsible gun owners will not effect those criminals that would NEVER get rid of their guns because they are just that criminals.

Quote:

scenerio: there are three houses to the left that a criminal knows there are no guns. Three houses on the right that the criminal knows there are guns. Which one will be robbed?

The problem is with unregistered handguns, and yes, those would be tough (impossible) to eliminate.

If you don't have a handgun, don't talk to criminals.
