Protesting films gives the producers a promotion that money can’t buy.

Exactly. Protesting these things is just plain counterproductive.

The solution is to make a BETTER documentary on the subject

I wouldn’t be surprised to find out Moore is paying groups to protest him. Cheapest publicity in town.

I assure you that we are not receiving money from Moore or his socialist friends. We will be handing out flyers and a press release pointing out the flaws in socialist health systems and the hypocrisy of Michael Moore.

Also 2 or 3 people standing out side of a few theaters with a couple of signs looks pretty pathetic to the throngs who will enter the theater.

I disagree. Giving Moore free worldwide press without a counter-argument is not smart.

This doesn’t have to be a protest with signs. Rather, it will be focused on putting different ideas into the hands of those attending, and letting the media from Japan, Germany or wherever that there is an organized resistance to socialist medicine.
