Just remembered the other funny part of Bowling for Columbine that I mentioned yesterday… they were interviewing someone from Lockheed Martin, the primary employer in Littleton Texas (where Columbine High School is) and asking him if he thought there might be some connection between kids seeing all their parents working on missles and bombs and committing violent acts themselves. The guy responds (paraphrased) “Oh no, that’s much different, we as a country don’t just attack someone if they make us angry.” Cue a montage of the history of the US installing and removing leaders around the world.
The mini-history of the US and why the white people are all scared by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, of both South Park fame and also ex-residents of Littleton was fantastic too.
Anyway, that’s all, just wanted to get that in before I forgot.
