6 Degrees from Truth: Michael Moore Part 1 of 8

Website: www.6DFT.com
Filmmaker Michael Moore and his films "Bowling for Columbine" and "Fahrenheit 9/11" are critically examined. Factually inaccurate clips from Moore's films are shown and then rebutted. Includes the segments The Bank and Charlton Heston in Denver.

Update (November 2008): I've added some annotations to help out further with revealing the true Michael Moore.

Please note that this documentary does not condemn all of what Michael Moore presents. It only refutes *some* of what he presents. Part 8 of the documentary explains that his truths don't negate his deceit.

In other words, the baby was not thrown out with the bath water.

Because MM said "you shouldnt have guns in a bank because a robber might use them".......oh wait no he didnt. The point was to show what a gun crazy country we are. And your statement about the NRA is false, they could have cancelled thier rally.

Guys, replay this clip, close your eyes and picture napolean dynomite. its funny as shit lol

@Ariakas7708 "Well here's my first question, do you think it's a little dangerous handing out guns at a bank." Dangerous to whom? We'll have to assume the bank employees. Why? Because there's cash to be had by robbing a bank. Notice how quickly they cut away, because the employee probably told Moore right away, "We only gave YOU a gun for the video that you begged us to do. Under normal circumstances the main branch ships them to gun shops."

You miss the point of this scene completely!.

The point of the scene was to highlight how easy it is to get a gun in America.

You argue that he went to get the gun from the bank too rob it. That says alot about your type of character. In Europe where Im from it is incredibly difficult for an average person to get there hands on firearms. Moore was highlighting the relative ease in which someone can aquire a gun in America..

one more thing.. he has not told a LIE as you say it.. he told what he new .. he didnt comment on anything he didnt know about.. you are the one staging lies here.. because you are obviously missing a point here... please spare this country bullshit and GET REAL..

[people1suck1]

watch the movie again, come back, talk when you got the point of the Michael Moore story... you are trashing a guy`s opinion on reality here.. and i think its because youre offended instead of realistic...that was your opening statement "trashing america" no he is trying to protect the public from lies and danger.. where does he say :"i hate america or america is trash"? nowhere .. so think before you start talking crap that has nothing to do with what the point is

[people1suck1]

4) where is the proof for NRA RALLY FACTS? and even if you did have them do you really stil have no idea what the movie is about ? Again, if you felt offended by the movie because you are affraid of the truth ... dont judge because of your stupidity, judge because it is true... you defined a "lie" - what you missed is that Michael Moore has his opinions.. and in dictionary there is no such thing as a LIE when you state your opinion.. so again .. that was irrelevant.. in fact your whole idea is

[people1suck1]

3.) you stated: " not dangerous, gun is not loaded. THE ONLY DANGER IS IF YOU USE THE GUN AS A BASEBALL BAT OR ANYTHING SIMILAR" ----HELLOO... that can be dangerous .. and no TOASTER will take some time to plug in and get heated and by the time that happens they are caught .. nobody will hit you with a toaster but will attempt with the weapon .. you really have no clue what you are talking about .. that is why im taking the time to save you from your brainwashed mind .. and you make no sense

[people1suck1]

2) you stated : " yes the bank gives you gun, you get a rifle of your choice. The fact that they give you gun on the spot is staged. Gun rack they are just models".... do you not see anything wrong with your comments here? again you missed michael moores point.. it isnt about loaded unloaded / model - not model... it is the fact of morality not anything else.. everything you are talking about has nothing to do with what youre saying.. he is pointing out that you after all get a gun..

[people1suck1]

Here is what i picked up from your video:

1) Why is america violent? the point was not whether guns are loaded/unloaded the point was you were given a gun period whether right away or 7 days later....you missed the point because you felt too offended as an American, but you do not realize that it has nothing to do with you or any other good citizen of why the country has corrupt laws... so do not get offended ...GET REAL...

@elldizz Ever hear of how incredibly easy it is to get virtually ANY gun off of the black market?

[kethla]

@controversyking yeah like no one else dose that :) Come on

[adamk4747]

If Fat DUMB ASS MOORE REALLY WANTS TO RAISE THE QUESTION OF WHY AMERICA HAS SO MUCH SHOOTINGS THEN OTHER CIVILIZED COUNTRIES START TALKING ABOUT GANG VIOLOENCE AND ONE PARENT HOMES!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP BLAMING THE MEDIA AND GOVERNMENT. INDIVIDUAL RESPONSILBILTY PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MOORE IS SUCH A LIAR HE ACTS SO SINCERE AND LOVING GANGS ARE THE PRIMARY REASONS IF THIS DOCUMENTARY WAS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUS GANGS WOULD HAVE BEEN A BIG PART OF IT
