I guess I'm showing typical Clifornia liberal (although not quite as liberal as Mr. Moore) side but.. == shrugs == I dunno I kinda like him. He came to my school last year and spoke and I own an autographed copy of Bowling for Columbine.
When I heard him speak I have to admit I didn't agree with SOME of what he said... but his general message (at least what I got out of his speech) getting off our asses and not being apathetic. I agree with that... maybe not with everything else he says, but at the very least he gets people involved who may not have been involved before.
I think the film kids at my school are part of the reason he came. Course I wouldn't think that quite liberal California and an ESPECIALllY liberal campus such as my alama mater would be the norm throughout America.
Even if you don't like his films or don't think you'll agree with what he has to say,I still recommend seeing him speak because I know he got me thinking and researching some things on my own and what's most important is that we don't just take for granted everything we hear on TV or in the Newspaper, we have to go to several sources and come to our own conclusions.
-I will step down from my soap box now -
