As we all know, Michael Moore could give Nazi propagandist Joseph Geobbels a run for his money, and Fahrenheit 9/11 will go down in history as one of the most Anti-American pieces of hate propaganda ever published. When it goes down though, it needs to go down in flames straight into historys dust-bin.
The only real way to do this is to get it out of theaters as quickly as possible. That means a boycott of course. But not just of the movie, but of the theaters.
A lot of movies are coming out over the next few weekends. Several of them I want to see. But I wont. What Im going to do is write a letter to my local theater (ccd to their corporate office) and them that as long as Moores movie is in theaters, I wont be. This will not only hurt the theaters, but the producers of all those films sharing the screens with Moores screed. If enough of us do this, the next Moore film might not be able to find a distributor or theater willing to take the financial risk.
Liberals dont have jobs, thats why they can always find time to show up and protest for the cameras. Those of us that work for a living have to take our stands when and where we can. Boycott the theaters that carry this movie and show real support for our troops. Give Hollywood the cold shoulder this summer.
The class of those who have the ability to think their own thoughts is separated by an unbridgeable gulf from the class of those who cannot.

I doubt that the liberals could read the sign.
Big difference. That was one large company boycotted by a large group. Boycotting one theatre by one person even if done in parallel by a bunch of FReepers scattered throughout the U.S. is essentially peeing in the wind. Not saying you shouldn't do it. I would just want to hear about more effective means in addition to this that's all. A large group of people picketting a single theatre, for example, would be more effective. I'm not saying boycotts per se are not effective, just the style of boycott as originally posted.
No.
