JohnRich 4 #1 January 20, 2005 Headline: Michael Moore's Bodyguard Arrested on Airport Gun Charge Police took Patrick Burke, who says Moore employs him, into custody after he declared he was carrying a firearm at a ticket counter. Burke is licensed to carry a firearm in Florida and California, but not in New York. Burke was taken to Queens central booking and could potentially be charged with a felony for the incident. Moore's 2003 Oscar-winning film "Bowling for Columbine" criticizes what Moore calls America's "culture of fear" and its obsession with guns. Source: Fox News Well, isn't that sweet. Anti-gun Diane "turn them all in" Feinstein has admitted that she carries a gun. Anti-gun Rosie "you are not allowed to own a gun" O'Donnell employs an armed body guard to keep herself safe. And now anti-gun Michael Moore also has an armed body guard. The millionaire who claims to look out for the little guy, by making movies about how awful guns are and how America is paranoid, has an armed guard escorting him around, with an illegal firearm!

AggieDave 6 #2 January 20, 2005 Its another example of the ultra-liberal "you normal people can't have guns, but us important people have to have guns...we're better then you so don't worry about it."

kelpdiver 2 #3 January 20, 2005 I'm more amused by the fact that they want more gun control, but can't even stay in compliance with current law. Which one was it that was going to improperly gift a shotgun to her son? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is the downside. However, the more this happens and people hear about it, the better it is for everyone, since more and more people will realise why their opinions are not worth listening to.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

JohnRich 4 #8 January 20, 2005 QuoteWhich one was it that was going to improperly gift a shotgun to her son? That was Sarah Brady. It turned out to be a legal transaction, but marginally so. But it's still ironic that she advocates no guns in the home, then turns around and gives one to her adult son. The gun laws they advocate are only intended for us little people, but do not apply to them. They're special. They are more deserving of self-defense then the rest of us... By the way, it is legal to put a firearm in checked baggage on a commercial flight. However, the gun must be unloaded, locked in a hard-sided case, and declared at the check-in counter. We don't know the details of this bodyguard's incident, but it sounds like he carried the gun concealed on his person, which is illegal in New York, and also didn't follow the TSA guidelines for flying with a gun. Michael Moore is gonna need a new bodyguard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kbordson 8 #10 January 20, 2005 Perfect example of a mentality of "we need the government to protect the common people"... but the "special" ones have pardons from the rules.
