Where were the Freepers at F9/11? Report any sightings here! |
|
They were threatening to disrupt showings of Fahrenheit 9/11, but so far, I haven't seen reports of any turning up at theaters. If you sighted a Freeper at your local showing, report it here!
Here, Freeper, Freeper! Come out shy little Freeper!

2. I saw it in Brunswick. Starlight Theater. |
|
Had to drive over an hour to get there. It's also playing in Waterville and Portland, and I hear it'll also be showing in Bangor.
Sold out in Brunswick -- very polite and sedate crowd.

|
their mouths shut or they would have been killed by the crowd- Sold Out- people moved over from others films to watch F911, I have never seen a crowd so caught up in a movie- Best film I have seen in a while- considering watching it again this weekend.

5. Not a peep out of them in Richmond, VA. Hopefully any who were there |
|
had their eyes opened, at least to the idea that not everybody has to love Bush to be a patriotic American.
But who am I kidding?

6. Omaha had 2 anti-F9/11 protestors... |
|
A carload of people alerted me to their presence when they yelled out, "Did you even SEE the movie?"
They were holding signs that said, "Don't watch Fahrenheit 9/11" and "There's more truth in Shrek 2 than in F9/11," and their enlightened response to the question?
"We don't need to see it -- we know what it's all about!"
Hell, even O'Reilly managed to sit through at least an hour of the movie before his Repub chip kicked in and he had to run before being exposed to any further truth. F*cking morons...

10. Was at 10pm showing in Erie, |
|
had one guy laugh at dead child, and another told me not to clap when I applauded Mike saying that poor joined service believing they would never be sent into harms way without true necessity, I was applauding the brave kids, not the war. otherwise great response.
Handed out a few voter reg. forms with no problems also.

9. One outside the theater |
|
in Johnson City, TN. He didn't even have a sign, but was wearing a T shirt that said "proud to be a republican". I saw him as I was standing in line in front of the theater and said to the friend who was with me, "Look; there's a protestor", and I began laughing. She said "He isn't even old enough to vote". The kid looked like a typical freeptard, but it was obvious he was intimidated by the large number of people who had come to see the movie in this ultraconservative part of the state.
