Columbine, anyone?

Michael Moore obviously understands the defensive value of handguns. Or at least his bodyguard does. (link via the Puppy Blender)

Not surprising. Not at all. Liberal elites, who worship power above all else, instinctively grasp the power of guns. That is why so many are gun owners themselves. That is also why they seek to prevent the Proletariat from owning them.

As the saying goes, it's not about guns. It's about control.

UPDATE: There has been a new development in the story. Go here for details (via Insty).

Obviously, this is no longer a story about Michael Moore's hypocrisy. It is now a story about idiotic gun laws in New York City; specifically, how someone trying to obey Federal law gets nicked for a technical violation of a local law. Of course, this is how NYC gun laws were intended to work; in the Big Apple, preventing crime is secondary to harassing honest citizens.

Geek and Smallest Minority have more details.
