Michael Moore Calls American Sniper, Chris Kyle a Coward, but had Nine Bodyguards

To be fair to Moore, he does have a lot of body to guard.

Michael Moore, a lefty troll most people forgot even existed, made headlines for calling Chris Kyle a coward. Moore however is a profile in courage. After making the anti-American movie Fahrenheit 9/11 for which he was reviled by everyone from author Ray Bradbury on down, he claimed to have nine bodyguards.

In one of his books, he described the men as ex-Navy SEALS.

It’s not clear how many bodyguards he has now, but in 2005, one of his bodyguards was arrested for having an unlicensed gun.In 2011, at an Occupy rally, he was still being accompanied by two bodyguards despite having fallen into obscurity.

Worse still, Moore apparently began making up attacks against him to justify the bodyguards.

According to Mr. Moore:

“In Nashville, a man with a knife leapt up on the stage and started coming toward me. The Seal grabbed him from behind by his belt loop and collar and slung him off the front of the stage to the cement floor below. Someone had to mop up the blood after the Seals took him away.”

However, Officer Don Aaron of Nashville Police Public Affairs Department said there is no record of such an incident involving Mr. Moore occurring in the area.

The filmmaker describes how in Fort Lauderdale, a man “in a nice suit” saw him on the sidewalk and “went crazy.”

Again Mr. Moore was saved because of the heroics of his ex-Navy Seal bodyguards:

“[The man] took the lid off his hot, scalding coffee and threw it at my face. The Seal saw this happening but did not have the extra half-second needed to grab the guy, so he put his own face in front of mine and took the hit.”
The alleged assault was the most serious of them all. According to Mr. Moore, on this occasion the Seal needed medical treatment.

“The coffee burned his face so badly, we had to take him to the hospital (he had second-degree burns) – but not before the Seal took the man face down to the pavement, placing his knee painfully in the man’s back, and putting him in cuffs,” the book states.

According to Fort Lauderdale Police Department there are no police records of this incident ever happening.

One Fort Lauderdale detective added that Mr. Moore’s description of the incident read like “a fantasy novel.”

Moore has gone around inventing attacks against him while calling Kyle a coward.

Nothing more heartening than to see these leftist icons of yesterday drifting off into na-na land, one after another.

We'll see Michael Moore digging through garbage cans for his supper in five more years.

He must be paying those ex Seals an awful lot of money. I can’t blame them for wanting to earn of living, but maybe, just maybe during one of those alleged attacks on Moore they could look the other way for a respectable period of time.

I love Professor Creosote's tweet claiming his uncle was killed by a sniper in WWII.

Reminds me of a scene from the TV Show, "The Office", where a total dweeb named Dwight Schrute says, "My uncle was a World War II hero. He single-handedly took out a machine gun nest and then spent the rest of the war in an Allied POW camp."

My thought was that 8 of the “bodyguards” were needed to carry the obese ones snacks.

Moore is the epitome of the Hollywood liberal/socialist America-hating hypocrite.

Moore: "I hate guns, but good with my bodyguards carrying.

Moore: "I hate capitalism, but good with my wealth.
