Oh oh ohhhhhhhhh...

Michael Moore will be surrounded by more than just fans at the screening of ?Fahrenheit 9/11? in Crawford, Texas tonight.

The gadfly filmmaker plans to show his controversial documentary Wednesday in the town where Bush vacations. Moore originally intended to attend the screening but MSNBC-TV reported Wednesday afternoon that the filmmaker would not attend.
As The Scoop reported earlier, Moore has been getting death threats, and a source says the situation has gotten worse.
In fact, fellow filmmaker Spike Lee, while promoting his own film ?She Hate Me,? has told interviewers that ?they?re out to get? Moore who ?has an armed guard 24/7.?
Moore?s rep couldn?t be reached for comment.
So we have killed ALL the myths now.
Dead myth #1: MM owns guns
Dead myth #2: MM is not anti-gun
Dead myth #3: MM did not know his bodyguards were armed.
There can no longer be any doubt about his hypocrisy: Only the rich elite are entitled to armed private protection. The poor are fscked.
