Ah, but you give your own biased opinion of Moore's work as presenting slanted opinion in the guise truth and facts as the truth or fact. So I'll just call it even with that regard.

Of course every "disputed" portion of BFC has been answered and those answers have been rebutted and those answers to answers have been rebutted to the point that it is largely irrelevant. Also, from what I have read the disputed portions of the film that can stand to scrunity take up, perhaps 3 minutes of a two hour film. Even if I bought your opinion and took it as my own, I would also look at the context and relativity of the disputed portions with the whole.

At the end of the day- Some folks are going to have an opinion like yours and other simply are not. Neither opinion is fact.

I just watched BFC today. In fact- Certainly Moore offered his opinion throughout the documentry, in the process of documenting the opinions of many, many others. Mixxed with the documented opinions were documented facts.

Regardless of these diversive opinions, Regardless of how loud the films detractor cry out their opinion "Is a Liar" or how loud the fans of the film cry their opinion- "Is not!" in my opinion it does not take away from the central question asked throughout the film-


Why is America so damn violent? Why does America have so much gun violence?
