Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore is calling for an economic boycott of Georgia over this weeks execution of Troy Anthony Davis.
I encourage everyone I know to never travel to Georgia, never buy anything made in Georgia, [and] to never do business in Georgia, Moore said on his website this week.
The Academy-Award winning filmmaker and best-selling author also called on his publisher to pull his memoir, Here Comes Trouble, from every Georgia bookstore.
If Grand Central Publishing doesnt pull the 427-page book, Moore said he will donate every dime of every royalty my book makes in Georgia to help defeat the racists and killers who run that state.
Brian Robinson, a spokesman for Gov. Nathan Deal, found the filmmakers rant amusing.
We think its cute that he thinks anyone in Georgia would buy his book, but if any Georgian does, Im happy to double the royalties and buy a pack of gum for a charity of Michael Moores choice, Robinson told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Thank you for that clever insight.
I simply meant that the good people of SC would welcome you and your wife to their state. They are a very convenient target. If you enjoy piling on, so be it. OBTW Florida ADVERTISES having the ‘whitest beaches’ around. Does that make Florida ‘RACIST’?
Get the chip off your shoulder, and GET A LIFE.
good question
When florida refers to white beaches they arent refering to people likr the poster was, and like you are making excuses for.
Why doesn’t that lardass boycott the liberal members of the SCOTUS, none of whom raised their voices to protest Davis’ execution?
Algore was boycotted in 2000 when he not only lost our state’s
11 Electoral Votes, but failed to even carry his own home district.
BTW Moore needs to boycott a few meals or he will end up mirroring his fate in Team America: World Police.?
Exactly, IF you are against the death penalty, you should be against it for all reasons not just the cases that fit your template....
So Big Mike is not only a fat stupid asshat, he also is a huge hypocrite.....of we already know that
Whatever.
The ‘racist’ card isn’t the ace of trumps unless you allow it to be. You will eventually learn that when it gets played against you, as I suspect it will.
Have a nice day.
Smells like sumtin died.
Michael,,, have another Bowel Burger Au Jus, and FOAD!
My guess is that a lot of folks are boycotting Fat mike .
True, but he still gallivants all over the planet claiming to be from Tennessee, even though he was raised in a posh DC hotel and apparently now lives in a palatial mansion in Kalifornia. Speaking on behalf of real Tennesseans everywhere, Moore and Kalifornia can have him. They deserve each other......
Who is this Michael Moore that they speak of?
My Asian wife and I had a great time while I was stationed in SC for 5 years.
Hmmmm...what a great idea. I think I will show my support of Tubbo and drive my happy arse down to GA today and do a little shopping while my sad little dollar is still worth a red cent.
Thanks for reminding me I need to add toilet paper to my shopping list Tubbo!
I’m real tempted to write a letter to the editor of my local paper today.
I’ll write it on the stupidity of trying to start a boycott war from Michigan and suggest that my fellow Michiganders encourage Mikey to STFU.
I’m on the waiting list of a custom 1911 gunsmith in Kennesaw, Georgia. When it’s my turn, not only will I get a great pistol, I’ll get to snub Michael Moore.
To paraphrase Ron White: “if you kill somebody in our state, we’ll kill you back”. Unfortunately, we don’t have an express line. Davis had been around for almost 20 years.
