View Full Version : Boycott Fahrenheit 9/11

Organzing to Oppose Michael Moore's Film, ''Fahrenheit 9/11''

Patriots:

We at PABAAH (Patriotic Americans Boycotting Anti-American Hollywood) are beginning to organize a concerted effort to protest/boycott the Michael Moore 9/11 conspiracy film, ''Fahrenheit 9/11, We feel this film will be nothing more than an insult to the memories of the victims of 9/11 and is a political attack piece aimed at President Bush. This is over the top and tramples on sacred ground.

If you are interested in being involved, we are looking to set up networks in all 50 states, to spread the word, recruit other supporters, etc. We want to make the outcry vs. CBS look like a picnic compared to this. Our guess is that Moore will plan on a 9/11/2004 release date, two months prior to the election and on the anniversary of 9/11. This guy is a shameless self-promoter who is attempting to defile an event that is sacred to many of us...and we should not sit quietly and take it.

If interested, let me know, especially which state you are in. We need your help to spread the word to others who may want to be involved; groups, individuals, etc.

We are currently working with other like-minded groups and are even talking with patriots of grassfire.net to centralize a petition drive thru them. Why have five boycott sites and 10 different petitions dedicated to this next year when the hoopla over all of this starts? Let's coordinate, be prepared, and just have one big effort...

If we learned anything from the CBS fiasco, it's that we can make a difference. Ultimately, our goal is to have this tank at the box office and to convince theatre owners that it is not in their financial interests to book this film. If we boycott all movie theatres during the time they carry this vile film, thus hurting their bottom line, we can have a huge impact on whether or not they carry this film.

God Bless America!

"Patriotic Americans Boycotting Anti-American Hollywood"

"God bless America!"

That's BS, these two statements show that the PABAAH (tee-hee) are just against the movie because it's "unpatriotic!", not because there's anything actually wrong with it (that there may well be), how about seeing it, you might pick something up :roll:

I don't believe boycotting this particular film will be efective. I wouldn't see this movie regardless of the boycott. People that would see this movie in the first place will just be more encouraged to see the movie BECAUSE of the boycott. Meanwhile the big fat liar will just laugh and take their money to the bank.

why boycot a movie which you haven't seen? If you are realy convinced of your own conservative principles and thoughts than you won't mind seeing the movie, cause it won't persuade you. Boycotting the movie means you are afraid that it might actualy convince you.

think is, moore doesnt even make an attempt to show both sides of any given story. Even if he does have a good point (which he does every now and again) his biased way of showing that point kills it in the eyes of many. to be honest, eventually i'll see it..but i just dont have any intention of paying to see it. i'll have nothing to do with lining that mans pockets.

crazyman
06-19-2004, 09:43 PM
also for anyone wondering about the name of it. its based on a book called "fahrenheit 451". the book is about a man who rebels against his job, which is to burn books wherever they are found. if i remember right (read it a LONG time ago) the book is an attack on the stereotype of our culture...people who sit in front of the TV all day and never question why certain things are done. I can certainly see why moore liked it.

I'm sure his movie will be #1 in the country. Simply because all the little 16 year old bush hater/hippie wannabees will go see it and then say "Bush is even worse then I thought he was. Michael Moore is a genius." :bash:

P.S. Telling people not to see his movie isn't censorship. Not allowing people to see it would be censorship. ;)

06-19-2004, 11:43 PM
As Durandal so wisely point out on another thread, Michael Moore caters to an audience-just like Rush Limbaugh, just like al-Jazeera, just like Fox News, just like Katie Couric. Moore doesn't expect most of us to go see it, and I doubt he wants to. Just as Fox News doesn't expect Greenie the Treehugger (great name, right? p-) ) to watch their channel.

I do commend the improvement here in that the calls for his death have subsided, thankfully. How ironic for so-called patriots to demand the death of an American citizen exercising his right to free speech within the confines of that right. Besides, wasn't Geraldo on Fox News when he crossed the free speech line? ( p-) Said rhetorically, please don't answer that.)

I just don't want you guys to have heart attacks or high blood pressure or ulcers or anytihng over Moore. As an older man, those health risks come to mind when I get worked up or see others worked up. p-)

Have a good one all, and just some thoughts...

Tane Angle
06-20-2004, 12:18 AM
Hot weather coming, shaven might help with that. And you can show solidarity with the military p-) .

Moore is manipulative, of course. What always strikes me is that he complains when the media exploits people's pain, suffering, and grief, yet from what I've seen of his movies, that is exactly how he makes his money. And I certainly hope that all of the proceeds went to the families in Columbine (for his other film) and of terrorist attacks for this one. But I won't hold out hope on that.

I can't help but chuckle at how COUNTERPRODUCTIVE it is attempting to convince people to avoid Moore's flick.

It's like having someone hold up a sign on the side of a highway that says, " Don't look at the horribly gory accident ahead!"

It's bad enough that some will "rubberneck" and hold up traffic looking for a glimpse of gore, but warning folks not to watch will only increase people's likelihood to have a look since it must be a particularly horrible accident(pun intended) due to the early warning.

thus holding up traffic for those focused on the road ahead.

I can't stand it when Mikey talks about Family of Bin Laden being flown out of US. While that IS TRUE, what he doesn't mention is that the big Bin Laden family hasn't considered Osama to be their family memeber for long time.

Osama actually called Jihad against Saddam in 1990/1991. He was pro-American then. But when US started deploying their armed forces in Saudi, that's the time he started to be against US.

For those spouting tripe about the freedom of speech without ever reading the actual document....



Bill of Rights
Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Freedom of speech only refers to the government restricting it with laws; it does not pertain to individual US citizens and their decisions.

man... you're pupptes.

The only way Michael More can make his films sell is to piss off the right wing. While you're boybotting and slandering Michael Moore you're shamelessly promoting his film. It's getting a billion dollars free publicity, simply by exposiure from the right wing.

I consider myself left wing and I can clearly see that Moore and his films and TV shows are more biased than a Motherf***er. But when the political spectrum is so polarized this is only way to get the message through. He's speaking to his peers, giving them ammunition to take cheap shots at the right ring, just like other right wingers are throwing BS back left. It's the American way.

I know that Farenheit 9/11 might not offer anything new, dirsturbing or shocking. It's proberly going to deliver it's points and messages in such a condesending manner that I'll proberly get sick and tired of Moores voice, before the film is over.

But




I'm gonna watch it,




how can I not watch it,




I have to watch it,




simply because people like budanski bombard me with subliminar "go watch it, go watch it, go watch it" messages.

also for anyone wondering about the name of it. its based on a book called "fahrenheit 451".


This raises an interesting fact: Ray Breadbury (the author of "Fahrenheit 451") is sueing Moore for his use of the name.

Generally speaking Moore's film (from what I heard about it) has nothing to do with Breadbury's novel - in fact it heavily contradicts it.

the problem is that the left, boycott every thing.

the same can be said for guns, nearly all people have not had an incident with one, and about half have every seen one where i live, yet they still oppose guns and want strickter gun control, so why dont they just not buy a gun and let those who wish to to do so?

its the same concept.

and in earilier wars moore probly would be tried for treason. as there is a limit to free speach especially during time of war.

i just dont like micheal moore, its not even the points that he makes, hell nearily all of my friends are very libral, it how he chooses to make those points, by telling lies and editing speeches until they say what he wants them too.

Or as someone else said, I believe on this board, next time is is outside of the US promoting these lies ans slander than the State Department should send him a letter telling him not to come back.

are you describing Bush or Moore? I'm not a Moore fan, never seen any of his movies, and i probably never will. But what you've described could fit Bush just as readily as it can fit Moore. And lets see, who had the abuse pictures before the media? Oh thats right, the government. If Moore had released the pictures before they were leaked to the media, then people would bitch about that. So really, whats the different. Either way, its just another fun filled maxi-pad party.

Do you know what democracy is about at all?
It's about freely expressing your views, how extreme and bizzare they may be, and selecting your govement.
Critizising a goverment is not the same thing as treason, even if you lie, etc, politicians lie too, if you didn't know the last I feel pity for you.
Treason is something completley different.
You may not remember it, but Moore isn't just after republicans or right wing politicians. Though I get the feeling he dislikes the religious right more than others, but that's maybe just me.

Osama actually called Jihad against Saddam in 1990/1991. He was pro-American then. But when US started deploying their armed forces in Saudi, that's the time he started to be against US.

You actually bring up a very important point that the liars in the Bu$h administration have tried to cover up. The fact that Bin Laden and Saddam were enemies.

I mentioned this in another thread. Saddam was a socialist and was not a devout Muslim. He was only "Muslim" to keep the imbeciles, especially the Shiites, in his country quiet. That is very different from Bin Laden's fundamentalism.

Furthermore, there is even a difference in the brand of Islam between the two. It's like Catholics and Orthodox Christians, not exactly good friends, are they?

Perhaps over the last few years, Bin Laden made overtures to Saddam to unite against the "common enemy," but by all reports Saddam refused, probably in part because of pride.

Just one more reason why I *KNOW* that George Bu$h is a filthy liar. There are dozens of others, including Enron, the California (election) and NY (deregulation vote) black outs, and probably even the Anthrax letters (Patriot Act).

Watch and see, George Bu$h's days are numbered, and I don't mean because of Kerry, I mean because the man is a treasonous criminal!
