Bowling for Columbine

" Bowling for Columbine " is a documentry produced and directed by Michael Moore. Columbine happened in 1999 at the state of Michigan. Reasoning for a documentry with a theme " Bowling for columbine" is to try and show the media why things like the shooting at Columbine happen. In the documentry there are a lot of issues explored, such as the use of guns, and weapons in all countries. Moore learns that the conventional answers of easy availability of guns, violent national history, violent entertainment and even poverty are inadequate to explain this violence when other cultures share those same factors without the equivalent carnage. In order to arrive at a possible explanation, Michael Moore takes on a deeper examination of America's culture of fear, bigotry and violence in a nation with widespread gun ownership. Many Americans would ask the question, why did this happen in America and not in Canada where they also buy guns and don't lock there doors. This documentry tries to get all facts and information so they can try and get inside that question and maybe one day be able to answer it, right now there is no answer. The media only knows that Columine in and always will be in America. I think Michael Moore made a documentry on this to show younger kids that things like Columbine are real, and happen in real life today. Being the victim of a shooting and being respnsible for a murder is not the answer, and can happen anywhere now a days.
