Javierdude22: Well finally...some retoric, in the form of a website but what the hell...

Very true nltimer...or David Hardy....Bowling for Columbine can hardly be considered factual. I knew that already when i was watching it.

Thing is though, that facts are not what the docu/film (who cares what it is) is about. Its about making a point. Although he obviously misused some information, i dont see anything in the website on things i excatly think are VERY good pionts. So Germany has 1476 gunrelated shootings (information also from an unknown website)...instead of 381. Its still half of the Us if you do it percentage wise of population. In Holland we hardly have any gunrelated murders (50 maybe) on a population of 17 million. What about his referral to UK gunrelated shootings?? It didnt even reach 50 on a huge population. What about Canada having 7 millions weapons on a population of 30 or so million with a low percentage of gunrelated shootings.

Thats the thing, i hear a lot about how he is not factual, but he is VERY factual in what point he makes.

But enough about Bowling for Columbine.

Cause uhm....ya know.....i kinda was referring to THE BOOK!!!!!...

Points made in the book about proceedings of Bush election, racism, corporate America, ignorance on many many fields...

I was hoping to discuss THAT....

Thanx..
