Bowling for Columbine

Finally (!) saw Micheal Moore’s Bowling for Columbine last night, impressive! The movie has been high on my ‘to-watch’ list for a long time and not without reason…I think everyone agrees that it paints a pretty good picture on the problems US society has with their (constitutional) right for everyone to possess guns. South Parks American History (on YouTube) explains it all…FEAR, definately not good for living a relaxed life.

Marilyn Mansons take on it (also on YouTube) was probably a revelation for most people.

At the end of the interview Micheal Moore asks: ‘If you were to talk directly to the kids at Columbine and the people in that community, what would you say to them if they were here right now?’

Marilyn Manson responds with: “I wouldn’t say a single word to them, I would listen to what they have to say and that’s what no one did!”. Wow!
