I wonder what plane Mr. Moore would fly in AH.....

Hmmmmmm Im thinking mabye B17s, but instead of bombs he would drop leaflets telling you how bad the game was and how HTC is big brother controling you and not allowing free thought, then as your sitting on the runway debating the ethics in supporting a game that is only out to promote violence and how mabye vulching is the reason for so much bashing on the BB he comes over the airfield and wipes you out with his .50 cal guns l:D

you are right...moore did rag on the NRA, but there was allot more in the movie for me than just that.

i agree with you that the kids at Columbine HS could have used knives or lots of other weapons....imagine if they had had some home made pipe bombs? It would likely have been worse. what i got was moore questioning the reasoning behind these two teenage boys: why they did it, more than what they used to accomplish it. to me another good question.

IMO changing gun laws is going to be inneffective against reducing crime...criminals will still get illegal firearms regardless of any laws that change.

XtrmeJ you strike me as a cool kid.

Don't seriously listen to us fat f*cks...

If anything, laugh.... and figure it out for yourself. Be suspicious of anything that feels easy.

They did have bombs, they just didn't get to set them off.

YUP. But this whole movie talked about why they did it and why Canada doesnt have any problems, why the NRA is STILL concerned w/ gun rights, and how evil lockheed martin is. Buy a CD from a bank and pass a backround check to get a free rifle then you ask K-mart to stop selling ammo and you have the whole movie in a nutshell.

It didnt say that these two kids MAY have been messed up by the: media, bullies, drugs, hollywood, or lack of parental supervision.

Sorry Moore did not prove ANY conclusions in this movie......yet it was lauded as great. First time I saw it I thought it was a "mocumentary".

Virgil I think they did in fact set off some bombs but to no real effect.

Pay good money at the boxoffice to get "tooled" by Moore?

No thanks.
