Bowling For Columbine Is Effective

Moore believes that easy access to guns is the cause of all this violence. .
             Moore was not rude when he interview people, he did try to get answers out of the people, but he was not too pushy. He used Dick Clark's and Charlton Heston's interviews in order to show us how some people do not care about what happens too the children of America. Michael Moore's interview with Dick Clark showed that Dick Clark wanted no part in answering any questions. Dick Clark does not care about easy access to guns. When Michael Moore tried to question Dick Clark about Kayla Rowland getting shot, Dick Clark was in a big hurry to get out of there and could not get the van door closed fast enough to suit him. He would not even answer one question. Michael Moore used this interview to show us that people like Dick Clark do not care if guns are easy to get. Opposing people would say that this is just one interview and you cannot go by just one interview. Michael Moore's point is it only takes a few people feel this way for our children to be able to access a gun. .
             When Michael Moore interviewed Charlton Heston, Heston was more worried about what the effect would be on the NRA if he answered what Michael Moore was asking him. When Michael Moore asked him "why did you go a head with the pro gun rally in Littleton Colorado," Heston said "he did not know about the shootings at Columbine High School" (Bowling for Columbine). Well this is not true because the Mayor asked him not to come and at the NRA pro rally Charlton Heston told the people that "the mayor of Littleton Colorado sent me a message and it said "don't come here we don't want you here" and Charlton Heston said " This is our country and as Americans we are free to travel wherever we want in our broad land" (Bowling for Columbine). This shows that he was just interested in the opinion of the NRA members. These interviews were effective in showing that our rich and famous are not concerned with the fact that children of America are able to get a hold of guns.
