That picture does not make a Taser look like a flashlight.

I saw the show. Totally didn't realize he was from here. I was half watching, half working. But I do remember him because wasn't he the one told to dress better and he did?

When you used the word "propaganda" a negative connotation was perceived, and by more than just Alan. And just because these facts that Moore uses are swayed to one side does not in any way make it propaganda, it is an argument. It is a logical argument that Moore makes. As I said above with taking you in emotionally, and then stringing it through. That is logical not only the building of the argument, but also in the facts that he uses. Now of course, the further along, the fuzzier the facts get, but that is a documentary for you.

J_Mortimer: I am with you on the Cuba part. It did seem just slightly overplayed and fake. I'm sorry, but you can't take a boat to Cuba and outside of Guantanamo and have nothing happen to you. There was a reason it wasn't shown.
But, I can understand not allowing dissenting views. If you allow those views, you are weakening your argument. Moore is very good about building his view/argument and presenting it piece by piece. You wonder why he started with the emotional stories, moved to Canada, then Great Britain, then France, and finally Cuba. If he started with Cuba it would look even more fake. He doesn't care if he lost a few people at the Cuba part, he brought them far enough.
Being the daughter of a former attorney, I know how to build an argument. You have to or you'll never convince anyone.

Sounds interesting, but not as interesting as the book I have to read as an incoming freshman at Mizzou. I have the joy of reading An Ordinary Man by Paul Rusesabagina. It is a book that kids will "actually enjoy reading" but ties to some very important issues in society.
