Bowling for Columbine

Guess what this topic is about. No, it isn't about chickens, that's later. It's about the documentary of the same name as this entry.

I had been waiting for this to come on the satellite for a bit now, and today I finally got my chance to watch it.

A few months ago I knew almost nothing of Michael Moore other than what I've heard from family. Basically that he was a horrible person, and to put him on that 'ignore what he says' list. I know how, even if you don't realize it, people influence your opinions, especially people who are close to you. Even if it's just a little bit. It's hard to keep your views your own.

I'm not going to write a lot about Moore, or Bowling For Columbine. I'm not going to say that he is right, or that he is wrong. With things like this, you're just going to have go see it for yourself. If anything, it should at least make you think a bit. I know it made me think, and I agreed with a lot of what was said with the movie, and disagreed with some. All I can say is go see it with an open mind, and open eyes. Whether you love him or hate him, go watch. Watch it by yourself, so you wont have people barking out when he's wrong or right, and form your own opinion.

Now I'm off to watch the women's gymnastics, always a highlight of the summer games for me.

..... I watch for the althleticism........ I swear........ Stop looking at me like that.
