Thread Name: Michael Moore, Bowling For Columbine
Subject: RE: Michael Moore, Bowling For Columbine
I think it was based on truth. The juxtapositions of scenes were his but I believe they had the elements found in any artistic truth. It doesn't matter if it was someone's interpretation of the literal truth. It highlighted a true perspective whether or not the facts can be verified.

Micheal Moore is an artist. He is entitled to express his vision whether you a gree with it or not. I think his piece on the missile producing company and it's relationship to gun violence and his tie-in to Charlton Heston was justified.

I am happy that he has the courage to be out there with an alternative view to the trigger-happy gun owning yahoos who believe they can solve problems by shooting people.
