er....no. This is what the NRA are doing when they can't sue. They try to attack and discredit Moore trough the media. You kind of got the point all upside down here....The NRA couldnt sue, so they went on an "Moore is a liar" rampage, it's not like the NRA didn't want to sue. Believe me, if they had any real proof of lies or otherwise incriminating behaviour from Moore , they would sue faster than you can say "dumb fuck".
As previously stated, if a satirist like Al Franken gets a hopeless case against him based on dodgy accusations, rest assured Moore would have suffered the same fate, had he not based his movies on hard facts. The fact that Moore created a best-selling movie seen by great masses of people in bothe the US and Europe, shows that this is not something the NRA would overlook, if they had any chanse to sue over this movie, they would.
I am not ignorant of your legal system, as far as I can see, it's working perfectly when a satirist can create a movie illuminating very serious, yet very unpopular issues without getting thrown out of town by mobs with torches and pitchforks.
As far as I can see, this blatant propaganda against Moore is the NRA's pathetic struggling to regain some credibility after the public humiliation they got. Thank god, most of us won't get fooled by their bs.
