Bowling for Columbine Corrections
America is a densley populated country with a mix of ethnic origon and religious beliefs. In the film documentary “bowling for coumbine” Micheal Moore investigates the tradgic Columbine massacre where in April 20 1999 two students walked in to the library of columbine high school with two automatic machine guns and grenades purchased from a local supermarket for “hunting purposes”.
