"Wilson says two things persuaded him to make his first film. One was “Bowling,” in which Moore tells the story of a Flint, Mich., schoolgirl killed with a handgun, an incident Moore implied occurred because the assailant’s mother was distracted from having to work two jobs as a result of changes in Michigan welfare laws.
“He left out a lot of stuff that was widely reported in the media at the time,” says Wilson, 28, who says death threats have persuaded him not to reveal where in the Twin Cities he lives or works as a marketing writer. “But the real reason that bothered me is my mom worked two jobs when I was a kid, and it was like a personal slap to her to say you can’t work two jobs and raise your children properly. My mom worked really hard, and she taught us right from wrong."
The above quote is from Mike Wilson, a Minnesota film maker, discussing why he made his film “Michael Moore Hates America."
I hope Mr. Wilson makes millions.
