Limo-libs want to grab YOUR guns, but keep a few for their body guards.

Well, he needs protection, from us, the common people. Said with sneer.

I'm chuckling at the image of that poor bodyguard trying to shield Moore with his own body. Just not going to work...

Michael Moore lets his bodyguard carry a gun?

What is he thinking?

I bet someone at the NRA is smirking.

I think in Moore's case...it's hippo-ocrisy.

an unlicensed weapon in New York's JFK airport

rocket science isnt his forte eh ?

Was he expecting to be waved through?

Should have had the sense to check it in baggage before he got to JFK - Ive done it (years past) with no problems

Hope it wasnt too purdy, or a family hierloom

Interesting that Michael Moore would hire such a stupid body guard.

You could not pay me enough to guard this man's body. So many people must want his head.

He should have just claimed it was just something he got for opening a new savings account.
