Saw a brilliant movie that I'd been meaning to see for ages, 'Bowling for Columbine', written and directed by Michael Moore. Who else has seen it? What did you think of it? I was very impressed with this movie/documentary, I highly suggest others watch this movie but be warned, its highly graphic in places. Both hilarious and heartbreaking, with a message that cannot be missed.
By the way, did anyone else know that the NRA (National Rifle Association) and KKK were both founded in the same year?

Was very thought-provoking, wasn't it?
And that montage of America's foreign policy mistakes with 'What a wonderful world' playing was truly heartbreaking.
I thought Michael Moore's style was interesting; he looks like such a teddy-bear, people don't suspect him of double motives. The Canadian (s is there more than one?) would be interested in what he said; comparing Canada to America. Both have roughly the same amount of guns (Canada might have even had more) but there were far far less problems with them. It was definitely interesting, not the conclusion I expected.
America is a truly screwed-up country: sorry to any Americans, but watch this film and you can't deny it.
