It seems to me, with the Michael Moore thing, all the "lies" people get him on are trivial bullshit. The death tolls in the movie are accurate, but oh no, it turns out the Columbine killers <b>skipped</b> bowling class that day. But, he showed a clip of the sheriff saying they attended class...<b>OH MY GOD!</b> Well fuck, I guess that makes the entire movie bullshit then.
The anti-Moore people are as full of shit as they claim he is. In
Dave Kopel's anti-BFC article, he says this:
<i>"This serves as a setup for a later segment looking at the causes of Columbine, and arguing that blaming violent video games (which the killers played obsessively) or Marilyn Manson music (which the killers enjoyed) makes no more sense than blaming bowling."</i>
Apparently Kopel didn't read Time, Rollingstone, or Newsweek, which stated the killers hated Manson's music and were actually KMFDM fans. Well, Kopel fucked up, so I guess everything he says in his article is bullshit now too.
It's such a damn crime when a filmmaker makes mistakes in his documentary, but it's entirely alright to start a war before there's any proof of WMD. I love the state of the American public sometimes.
"No weapons? Eh, fuck it, bomb them."
"Oh my God, he made Charlton Heston look dumb? <b>Take away his Oscar!</b>"
I think he's doing good by making movies that make people think and do research on subjects themselves. If you get all your education from movies, documentary or not, then you're a fucking moron to begin with. It doesn't seem right to shit on him because he made a movie you don't agree with, or makes the "club" you're in look bad. Moore succeeds in making people think, whether Klebold and Harris bowled 300's or not.
