DUCK SEASON,RABBIT SEASON ALWAYS HUMAN SEASON

the movie bowling for columbine covered a large area for discussion on the topic of gun abuse in America. the director/producer Michael Moore takes us on a very diverse tour Thur the cognitive and generational beliefs on guns of many different people around the world as well as in our own country. the shootings at columbine are just a small piece of the self destructive nature of the human pie. our species since as far back as documented has always been violent. the difference in our day and time is we have the advanced technology to have created guns to fight battles instead of lets say sticks and stones to break our bones, now its guns and knives to end our lives. the error in the creation of guns is shown Thur out this movie by the immature individuals who some how have obtained these guns. the interesting part of this movie to me is that children having guns was something i personally grew up with in new york city. i find it extremely covenant that children have possessed firearms in lower income neighborhoods for years and have brought these guns to school, and it was never shown or given the attention by the mass media, until a few incidents involving guns and children manifested in the suburbs of America. the problem of kids killing kids with firearms is now not just exclusive to living in a ghetto or being non-white but is apparently happening in the less assumed areas of America. the official wake up call to white suburbia has sounded and the media has been all over it with less than compassion for the victim's and their families. the firearms sold in America are sold with regulations and laws governing how and too who they can be sold to, and yet kids all over America in every state are capable of getting guns and ammunition whenever they want. i think a huge part of that is because the parents aren't regulating their children nor teaching them the necessary life skills needed to deal with situations that may arise Thur out their school experience. the other part of this problem is the lack responsibility show by gun owners. the adults leaving their firearms very attainable to anyone in the house which could possibly be a young child such as the little boy in the movie who brought a gun to school and shot a little girl in the face. their is also the illegal sale of guns to any and every one, and that has the united states government written all over it. the illegal selling of guns in America is outrageously high for a country with so many guns laws which makes me ask the question what are all these laws doing for the guns being sold on the streets illegally to kids?. the answer is nothing in case you are wondering. that in part gives somewhat of a view to the nature of violence in America opposed to Canada, Australia and Norway. the world is a violent place because we are a violent species with the ability to vaporize each other without a second thought as to solving whatever problem with discussion and agreement like mature intelligent beings that we are. we use to hunt for food as an evolving species and now we hunt for sport in order to show are dominate rain over all creatures big and small including ourselves, except we then call it war so its justified use of violence. this country starts wars or gets involved in wars under the disguise of freedom and justice for all when in truth its just a long history of divide and conquer. the show of violence by this country is leading its people by example thus creating an acceptance of violent acts and a justification of them. the sad part is this learned behavior gets passed down to the children who didn't ask to be born nor did they invent violence and more than likely would rather just watch bug's bunny while eating Trix cereal.
