Bowling for Columbine

a)Michael Moore's thesis: The goverment's actions of violence affects the behavior of young people
b)He supports his thesis by showing the government creating bombs and missles and showing the actions of violence they do and then they show the actions of violence of teenagers today and adults as well. Like in the video they show a couple of teenagers that invaded Columbine high school and threatened everyone and killed many students and a few teachers as well with really no reason other than the thrill and adrenaline. They had no reason to do what they did but because they had the weapons to do it with, they thought they would take advantage of that. Some of the ways he displays these actions are through montage, archival footage, talking heads, voice over 911 calls, animation and subtitles.
