BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE
The author challenges his audience with new thoughts and that’s true. In the film Columbine, he reveals the inquisitiveness of the best broadcasters who set out to discover an issue without the information of what their conclusion will be. The film is a mind chat investigation that uses a stunning the collection of filmmaking skills such as humorous lively account about the American violence history. The trap dialogue of Charles that concludes the movie is the well-known bit of the film although it is not what makes people flashback the movie. It is real that the film shows a clear documentary customary. Moore compares possessing a gun and gun fierceness in other countries with that in the United States and concludes that there is nothing like gun possession and gun fierceness. Fear makes American s to be armed as concluded by Moore thus the gun is advantageous to them. The author relates the manner of the Columbine shooters to the incidence in Littleton to a huge defense developed for manufacturing missile knowledge. Based on fear, the author compares this with the insolence rising in Canada, where gun possession is at the same levels to the United States. He exemplifies his thesis by visiting the Canada neighborhoods and the Canada U.S border where he finds the front doors unlocked. This shows that people are much less concerned about crime and their own security. Moore stresses the dreadful incident at Columbine High School and like everyone else he wonders how such a thing could have happened and that is the reason he is talking much about the American Society (Moore, 17).
Why Americans shoot one another much than citizens from other advanced countries and why our lives are controlled by fear are some of the questions that are rendering in my mind. Through these questions, Moore hesitates between admitting their intricacy and surrendering his personal wish to abridge. He also tries to suggest some answers to the questions reasoning on whether to blame the violent known culture. He argues that he cannot blame it as some countries like Japan which has fewer gun deaths; people produce movies and amusing books more. Deficiency is also not the answer since Canada and other European nations are encountered to huge unemployment rates and much lower murder rates. It is important to note that the Columbine killings happened on the same day with the United States blasting of the Kosovo combat. The film bowling for Columbine is fascinating and frightening and its focus on the society is based on fear, split by disparity and is not heartening. Mr. Moore’s less commendable personalities cannot be ignored especially if one finds worth in some of his opinions. The film seems to have a natural conclusion when Moore escorted by two boys injured at Columbine, visits the company headquarters to claim that the company should stop selling bullets. He well knows that the murderers in the high school kept bullets in one of the company stores. Moore is not able to have another opportunity to verify his ethical dominance, ends the film with a visit to the Heston house. One is deterred by Heston’s movements as he is shown addressing pro-gun gatherings that happened during the day of the school assassinations and still find that Moore strategies are repugnant (Moore, 20).
