4. Did you see the movie?
Edited on Mon Apr-07-08 06:34 PM by Bornaginhooligan
Because all I saw was Heston being a racist. I don't remember Moore blaming Heston for all the gun crime in America.

8. Of course he was a racist.
It's right there in Bowling for Columbine. Maybe you should actually watch it.

Was he a civil rights activist? No, he was a halfwit Hollywood celebrity who joined a noble cause for self publicity.

11. I mostly like Michael but he really was an ass to an old man in that movie.
And the thing is, he didn't even need to be.

14. He's actually pretty intelligent
If you get past the whole looking/acting like a complete freak thing. His music's a bit odd, but the man himself has said some very insightful things in interviews.
