Just watched "Bowling for Columbine" and Moses got ridden hard in

[Gin]

that film. Right after that he announces he has "Altshiemers".
(?spelling?) Could that have beem a CYA move to pre-empt the bad press?

That movie was very good and filled with information. Moore does a very good job. Thank you K-Mart for not selling ammunition after that confrontation.

1. Watched it yesterday for the first time, too

Nah, he had to announce soon htat he had Alzheimer's, but this at most just sped it along. Loved the KMart sequence, wish we could get WalMart to follow along, but WalMart only does what is good for WalMart.
I liked the extra features. The various Moore rants on the flip side of the DVD. Nice package - I'm gonna buy it.

2. I watched last night ... what is Moore's position here?

That the media is the problem?

[newsguyatl]

3. i, too, watched it for the first time

last night... loved it...

dick clark is such a DICK!

[lebkuchen]

9. Has Dick Clark shown his face in public since that movie?

He makes a perfect overseer.

[IggleDoer]

4. Did you notice the part about Eric Harris?

He wanted to crash an airliner into a building.

Who knew?? Surely not Condyleeza and the other Repubicans!!!

6. He says (my take) Guns are the problem in this country...and the spread

of fear from the media and government.

Dick Clark lost some lustre in my eyes. Greedy old rock n roller.

[Terwilliger]

11. really?!?!?

Most everyone I hear from says that gun violence in this country isn't about guns. :shrug:

5. My video store has been out of its copies for DAYS.

I finally grabbed a copy today, so I may view it tonight. I am looking forward to it.

7. It's a TREND!

Labor day weekend viewing of "Bowling for Columbine". Be sure to listen to Mike on the flip side!

8. gun control.

Now Im against gun control of any kind. I always talked about the theoretical need to repel a fascist gov. I never thought it would get so real. Besides, canada has a few guns and they dont use them on each other. At some point, the only thing stopping Bush or Jeb will be the knowledge that we are armed and patriotic enough to die protecting liberty.

10. I saw it first time last night, and so did my friend

who gave it to his son who stayed up all night to watch it.

A co-worker told me that after retirement, the family was going to buy a home in one of those gated communities in Arizona, where they would feel safe.

Can you imagine, locking yourself up from the rest of the world and calling it "retirement?" In Germany, that's when you're free to go out and mingle at long tables, eating and drinking with perfect strangers! It's a shame Americans don't have the freedom to feel safe.

12. Yea, that was a pathetic scene

The ruined most of the movies impact.

Its ironic how Moore makes a good statement on how the Media capitalizes on fear and sensationalizatism by capitalizing on fear and sensationalizatism

[Fescue4u]

13. The Kmart scene was a funny stunt

Unfortunately thats about all it was.

[Gin]

14. I went to a Local K-mart today and asked if they sell ammo for hand guns..

They don't. So part of it may be true.

[janx]

15. I don't think it was CYA.

That guy looked really messed up to me.
