Michael Moore Looked so defeated

[brettdale]

Being interviewed coming out of lax, was asked by the TMZ crowd about the shooting there, he just
looked so defeated, like nothing could be done. It was quite sad.

1. And nobody will ever make a more

brilliant film about the USA and guns than he did. He's done so much to try and stop shootings. He's a hero.

[idwiyo]

2. Not surprised, that's how I feel.

3. Are you referring to last week? He was there?

Sorry if my questions seem stupid but I'm totally baffled

[FarPoint]

4. I'm with you...

Asking if he was there as well? Did he witness the shooting?

[arthritisR_US]

5. I did some looking around and the near as I can tell

the interview happened a few days after the shooting. It was done at that airport but not on that day. I don't think he was there at the airport when the shooting happened. His dejection comes from the fact that so many years have passed since he did "Bowling for Columbine" and nothing has changed, these incidents happen weekly, monthly... are American's just a more violent people? That's the info I found, I could be mistaken but I hope it helps.

6. Not "nothing has changed." Plenty has changed.

For example, ALEC written SYG laws have been enacted in several states, and even more innocent people have been shot by trigger-happy nervous nellies standing the holy heck out of their ground.

Many more people, including little kids and a US congresswoman, have been shot by rampaging gunmen who should never have had access to guns, but who didn't even have to go through a background check or a waiting period to amass their weapons.

What has changed is that it has gotten worse and keeps getting worse.

18. I think that's where Moore's head was at. I think

he felt that his documentary would open peoples minds to the state of the gun situation and that things would change for the better but the NRA and such have made things worse

8. Oh, -THAT'S IT!!!- America didn't hear his message because he is obese.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, PLEASE! We desperately need intercession!

[Dreamer Tatum]

9. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought from the Chris Christie threads

that fat-bashing is totally cool here.

Do I have that wrong?

[HereSince1628]

12. I'll do it again: Jesus, Mary and Joseph, PLEASE!

We desperately need intercession!

10. .

11. WTF???

Did you seriously just suggest that Moore's message hasn't been effective because he's FAT?

Wow. Just, wow.

[Dreamer Tatum]

13. I'm just taking advantage of the anti-fat bias here. nt

[Amaril]

14. Yes, you certainly are.

Not something to be proud of, IMHO.

[Dreamer Tatum]

16. Ohhhhhhh I think I see the difference.

It's a PARTY thing, right?

[Nuclear Unicorn]

17. I figured out where you were coming from; it wasn't that hard, either.

However, I prefer to note Moore's bodyguard was arrested for carrying an unregistered gun. Mr. Moore should lead from the front.

15. Your subjective concern noted

Never judge another by your own prejudices, judge them by their works in this world.
