First off, I'm not right wing, but I do dislike Moore. The first time I saw Bowling for Columbine, I thought it was great. I thought it was good insight, even if Moore did jump around a lot. It seems like he got distracted about his ultimate statement in Bowling, switching focus from gun control to being anti-corpate. Asides from that, Bowling was a -very - misleading documentary. He leads you to jumping to the wrong conclusions. For instance, a lot of the NRA meetings that he leads you to belive happened right after the incidents, did NOT happen immediately after that incidents, which is why in the interview with Heston, Heston seemed confused about what Moore was asking about. It was edited in such a way as to completely draw the viewer in the wrong direction. Another example is about [Lockheed? I forget which aero space company he was talking about, I think it's Lockheed Martin] where he points you towards thinking that they are a missle maker. Which is incorrect. They are a rocket/aeronautics manufacture, not a missile company. The size the rockets he shows, and the way he phrases his statements would make the average person think they're building ICBM's.. There a lot of other examples you can find of inaccuracies and lack of integreity in Bowling for Columbine if you go around, fact check, and google search.
