According to Ana Marie Cox, in “2013 the US lost 30 people a day to gun violence.” Guns are a tragic reality of the world.  Which leads to the question, do guns really kill people? Or is it the 9mm bullet Americans slide into the barrel that does?  Michael Moore’s Bowling for Columbine 2002 documentary digs through the controversial question, why are Americans so scared; relating it with gun laws. Moore’s uses humor, short clips and emotional peal, taking the viewers on a heart juggling, thought provoking experience.

This entertaining, eye opening film focuses on the Columbine High School massacre, exploring and suggesting why it happened.
