That's exactly what I thought when I saw the movie. I had to watch it for a class, and I'm glad I did. I couldn't believe that they went to towns after the shooting of young individuals opccured more than once (Columbine, Michigan (I think--the shooting of the young black girl), etc. ), and you expect people to understand your cause, esp. when they already disagree with it in the first place?
It's a shame that Canada has just as many guns as the US, yet have lower crime rates and shooting deaths...Obviously, there's got to be a reason...
I've been a fan of Micheal Moore since I read his book, "Stupid White Men". IOt's about how the stupid white men who are running our country are ruining it and digging us further and further in a hole in the ground (i.e. Bushand his cabinet). It's hilarious, yet sad and informative at the same time.
