NO one is arguing that there are many gun murders in America. What we are arguing is that Moore is a liar. He explicitaly said that the Columbine murders were caused by the fact that the LIttletown plant makes WMD. This is not true. And Moore STILL says they make them. This makes him a liar.
Moore explicitally tried to show that Heston came to Columbine to have a pro gun rally in defiance of the the town's wishes. He used an altered speach to back this up. The true, un altered speach showed a sympathetic man lending his support and grief to the town. This makes Moore a liar.
Moore showed how easy it was to purchase bullits in Canadian Wallmarts, when the Canadian government said that this could not have happened as Moore is American and Walmart can not sell him ammo. So showing this in a documentary is a lie.
He tries to build a case that the NRA was formed by the KKK, when history clearly shows that it elected men that have activally targeted the KKK as terrorists as its president. And enouraged blacks to join up to protect themselves from the KKK. So this makes Moore a liar.
And so on.
Ok So why would a man make a documentary, and fill it will blatant, easily debunked lies? Why sue over this bunk? Do political canidates sue over their competitors lies and misrepresentations?
So why would YOU believe the conclusions of a film that BLATANTLY used misrepresention, and lies to make a poor point?
The fact that Moore lovers even like this film is laughable. It defeats its own premise at the end.
As far as why the NRA doesnt sue, they dont have to. It's members know the truth and the only ones that belive Moore are people that wouldnt joing the organisation anyway.
Moore sets up false dichotomies, and draws poor conclusions that HE HIMSELF expresses doubts in.
Why is America high in murders? Dont ask Moore, he clearly doesnt have a clue. He fails to prove it to guns. He fails to prove it to Media ( as England, Canada, France and Germany all have more sensational media).
So what was his point? America is dangerous cause its dangerous? Gee thanks Mike, you really helped.
Heston was the only one to come close to a real answer. He said America was dangerous cause we are the most racially mixed nation. That racism and intolerance was a big factor. Why did Mike not take this and run? Why go after Walmart, The NRA, and Dick CLark?
Why not acutally go into dangerous areas, prisons, and crackhouses and ask the murderers why they murder? I guess its not as easy as going after an 80 year old man with alzheimers.
Mike is a farce.
