Moore says he'll sue university if shut out

Invitation to speak at school revoked By Lisa Petrillo UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER September 17, 2004

Cal State San Marcos is the first university in the nation to dump Oscar-winning filmmaker Michael Moore, and he plans to sue if administrators don't let him speak.

"If they don't do the right thing, follow through on the contract – and we have a written contract and an oral one – then we will take legal action," Moore said yesterday.

The issue has become a matter of principle to Moore, who said he believed university officials were sending the wrong message to students by reversing their stand and revoking their invitation to him to speak Oct. 13.

Sue away Moore... Enough people hate you to donate to the university's legal defense fund until you're bankrupt.

But I doubt the contract stipulates where the college is required to let Moore speak.
So, give him a mic and set him up a nice little area in the boiler room or something.

Like a maintenance closet. I believe the school gets to choose what room is used.

All they have to do to rid themselves of Moore is to toss a a bar of soap at him or shoot a can of "Right Guard" in his direction. It would be the same as showing a cross to a vampire.

Hey Mr. Moore,

Your speaking venue has been changed.

Instead, you will be speaking at Texas A&M University....at the Memorial Student center.

Just show up at about 9 am during a weekday. Wait until you see a bunch of Cadets walk by...then walk on to the front lawn.

I promise you will get a welcome that you will never forget....or heal from.

As much as I hate to say it, that bloated turd has been invited to speak at U.N.R.

This is Northern Nevada and it is being infested with flea bitten California liberals.
