Go covert. Get the chance to ask him about the movie. Prepare one really great question and hit him where it hurts.

Go to bowlingfortruth.com (http://www.bowlingfortruth.com) to prepare. If you expect to get to ask a question, you must go very covert. Do not expect an "open" forum. Exposure of BFC to the sunlight of truth is painful. You may have to state what your question will be in advance. Make sure that your question could be put into fawning language to get past the sensors and then restated in real time.

Here's a thought - usually, IF a liberal is going to have a question-and-answer session, there's going to be a "pre-screener" to be sure only softball questions are thrown. So if you're going, prepare a couple of mealy-mouthed questions (you know, "Mr. Moore, have you received any death threats because of your courageous stand?") to tell the screener, and then, if and when you get the microphone, ask the REAL question. ("Mr. Moore, why do you feel it necessary to lie about . . . ")

And keep the questions short, succinct, simple, well-researched, and to the point. Ask a long, rambling question, and you'll lose the audience.

It would help if you could enlist a few others, too . . .

I agree with everyone else that you should go covert. Use the element of surprise! Be articulate, knowledgeable about your subject and polite. DO NOT get into a spitting match, become loud and nasty, etc. Brainstorm with others about what to ask.

Go covert. Get someone else to sneek in a hand held camcorder. Record Mikey's reaction to an honest question. Post video on interweb thingy.

All of the above.
Except for the shirt.
Conservative dress better for urban camo.

That will be simple i am one of the audio/video tecnicians for the arena where he wouldbe speaking if things finalize for him to come here.

i want to roast him, but with a tactful and serious question. no witty questions. i want a question that will really make people seriously think about the question themselves.

Mike actually invited some of the protesting DC Freepers into the premire screening of BFC last year.

You could have one of your loudmouthed buddies that can't be trusted to sit quietly in the audience stand outside with a picket sign that just says www.bowlingfortruth.com.

You could start off by saying how much you liked his old TV show 'TV Nation'...which was actually pretty funny.

They would have these polls they would take with hilarious answers:

"65% of College Students would punch themselves really hard in the face for fifty bucks."

This was way before he decided that guns were the root of all evil in the universe. He was just a roly poly funny kind of socialist back then.

Don't wear any gun gear. That would pop up on the radar.

Maybe a "Legalize It" shirt or "Save the Gay Whales" shirt instead?

Have someone video tape you smashing a cream pie in his face and send me a copy.

Lets start a THR "Pie Mike" fund. If Black pies him and gets us the tape he keeps the money. I've got $10 to donate. :)

Is this legal?

no. it would be called 'assault'.
however, it would be legal to buy moore a couple dozen bacon cheese burgers. you know hes always hungry. and what better way to show appreciation for all his hard work at being a documentarian than to feed him some artery-hardening food?:evil:

The fat racist who claims that had any Afro-American been aboard one of those flights, it would have been different. The never to assert that all Afro-Americans are trouble makers. In the older days, we'd say that it's prejudice. Certainly some are, but so are many whites, Asians, Latinos and everything else.

Dress well, and without gun emblems, or really any emblems at all.

Stay polite, and ask polite but honest questions.

Even if he loses his temper, stay calm and do not raise your voice or appear angry.

Remember, if you act rude, or do anything like that, if he goes frothing he can say you provoked him. If you are honest, polite, and professional, it is all his fault.

I'd write a nastygram to whoever is in charge of hiring him(I'd send it to the President or whatever he's called of the school) and complain about the waste of your education dollars going to Moore. Ask why this unqualified media hack should be allowed to speak at your college. specially as he advocates unconsitutional activities. Tell them you paid to be educated by qualified instructors. Doing anything "clandestine" is counterproductive. Complaining about your school wasting your tutition fees is another thing. Send a copy to the alumni association too. Ask them if they like their donations going to a lying plug like Moore. Or words to that effect.

Hi Mr. Moore,

Third year film student here and I was just wondering if you thought the continuity was affected at all by having Mr. Heston Change clothes three times during the same speech.

I'd also like to hear his version of "what do you say to those detractors who claim the Heston speech was spliced together?"

Dress in a U of Whatever sweatshirt if you must wear a logo. Keep your cool and see what happens.

I recall a time when Sarah and Jim Brady came to UNLV to give a speech...

The auditorium was PACKED. SRO.

An hour program lasted maybe 20 minutes...they were booed off the stage.

Insightful?

Unwelcome?

Interesting crowd dynamics at work.

Not a pretty picture if you were a Brady Fan.

Black92, you could have several friends write letters to the editor of your school newspaper for weeks in advance prepping the crowd. Direct people to the websites posted above, etc.

Enjoy the moment.

He DID receive an Oscar for goodness sake and that means so much (to someone I suppose)

Q&A... Mr. Moore, what do you say to pundits who report...
Reported by 55 KRC in Cincinnati. Micheal Moore could be stripped of his academy award for best documenrty that he won for Bowling for Columbine. ?

Adios

Obviously, the preferred attire is: Black combat boots, black jeans, a Metallica or Marilyn Manson T-shirt, and a long black leather trenchcoat. Maybe sunglasses as well.





And if you believe this, then well...:rolleyes:


Don't have a false question prepared for the pre-screening session (if one occurs). Instead, think of a question that'd be a virtual minefield for him to walk into. Then, word that into something the sheeple would regard as a "peaceful" and "acceptable" question.







Do it for the children, Black92LX:evil:

speaking of bolwing for columbine....my liberal criminal law prof gave it a glowing plug in class today......i told him after class that there was a campaign to revoke his oscar......the prof didnt even know he won an oscar, probably doesnt know what oscars are, and probably doesnt care, but he said....

"by who, charlton heston? hehe"

"actually no"

"what oscar did it win and why are they trying to revoke it?"

"best documentary.......i believe the film to less than a documentary....it is how we say...."

"so they are saying there is some fraud?"

"yes professor"

"mmmm i didnt know about that"

im thinking about giving him a piece of paper with www.bowlingfortruth.com or www.revoketheoscar.com on it just to see if he checks it out
what do you think fellas?

Don't give him a web site to go to - that's lame. Instead, learn as much as you can about the film's errors and have sources memorized to back them up. Then discuss it with him in a friendly, non-confrontational manner. Your mastery of the subject matter will impress someone more than saying "Well I read on this web site that . . ."

The biggest goofs in the film were about the Lockheed plant, the opening scene at the bank and the blurb about how Iraq invaded Kuwait with US weapons.

Print up some fliers, with information about the most glaring untruths and errors in the film, and pass them out to the students coming in the door. A little free speech never hurt anyone.

Mark, I suppose it's a matter of opinion, but I would say the biggest lies are the edits used to make it appear that Charlton Heston and the NRA held rallies right after Columbine and the Flint shooting. A close second would be the cartoon that shows the NRA and the KKK as different faces of the same group.

These are bigger lies, because they run counter to proven facts, rather than being exaggerations, and because of their great impact. Almost every positive review of Bowling, for instance, mentions the shock of realizing that Charlton Heston held a gun rally in Flint Michigan only two days after the killing--which never happened.

Ask him how gun control could have stopped 9/11 and why he isn't striving to ban box cutters. Or twinkies. And call him a fatty.

You could always ask him to cite his sources used for the number of people who died from gun-related violence. After all, it seems that no one else has been able to find where he got those figures.

Also ask him why he didn't adjust for differences in population numbers. In other words, why does he give strictly raw numbers vs. calculating number of deaths per 100,000 citizens in each country.

Both of those could be made to sound glowingly pro-Mikey if you give them the right window dressing.
