Bowling 4 Columbine. Saw it for the first time

I always thought this movie was just going to be all about Columbine and the tradgedy that happened and just a documentary on the school.

I had no idea what I was in 4.

All I will say is that it was a spectacular film. I'm not sure about the Canada is great ravings because I havent been there myself but alot of what he says is true. I was also shocked to see his standing up's for the black community and how minorities are always exploited with crime on the media from Cops to the Local News.

Michael Moore made a fan outta me again.

Careful.

It raises some pertinent issues, but it's easy to be misled. This films has several statistical inaccuracies in it, and of course it's propaganda of sorts.

But still, it's good viewing.

I know from alot of people and from my own experiences that America does preach guns and murder in film and media all the time..as an American stance...from school history to the NRA.

Plus EVERYONE knows minorities are half or 60% of the time shown doing something bad in media. Always got to be the ones fighting, innercity, murders..etc...etc.
