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.

I saw a comment on a Facebook Post about Moore saying the Sniper wasn't a Hero he was a coward.The comment made me giggle quite a bit.

Here it is: "You know who is a hero? The poor guy at Golden Corral that has to refill the buffet when Michael Moore is there for lunch/dinner."

It takes 9 bodyguards to completely surround him.

Michael Moore (aka Jabba the Hutt) is a flesh mountain that allows a sniper to really get creative with shots.

I used to have to respond frequently in the middle of the night to a crematorium near a fire station that I sometimes worked at. The place was old and their ovens hadn’t been updated to handle the fat people dying these days. They would purposely wait until the middle of the night to burn the really fat people because they were trying to keep from getting in trouble with the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency.

A typical fat person would make a lot of thick black smoke that would generate complaints during the day. But super fat persons would sometimes overwhelm the system completely. When their fat liquefied from the heat, burning lard would come running of the oven and make a huge mess and smoke would fill the building and set off their fire alarms.

I can’t even imagine the disgusting mess that Michael Moore would make. I hope for the sake of the neighbors that they will just dig a giant hole and cover him with a few yards of concrete. There isn’t a crematorium anywhere I know of that has ovens large enough to handle the lard that will come running out of his disgusting carcass.

More bodyguards than mansions? What kind of liberal elite is that? He needs more help practicing his fake humility...

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