    The way he compared our crime with other countries, why we have violence and they dont.. He simply blamed it on guns, which is completely misleading, and an extremely black and white view of things. Guns do not cause crime! There are deep social and economic factors that determine crime and violence, not guns!
    pup,

    As I recall, he aptly pointed out that Canada has far higher gun ownership than here... Japan makes the violent games yet they have far less gun crime than we do. Germany is the home of angry GOTH music and they to don't have the GUN crime we have...I think he tried to pin gun crime on deeply rooted social inequality... I'd have to see it again to be sure...

    I think as an AMERICAN he can do want he wants since his liberal OPINIONS can't HARM anyone...

    Any thoughts on the answer to this question: There were guns in the 60's, 50's, 40's and 30's. SO why are kids KILLING each other with GUNS in school TODAY?

    If he was hoping for the answer to this question, then i think he is asking the wrong people. This is something that is meant to be dealt with sociologist and psychologist. It's beyond any one person to create an answer/solution to the question/problem.

    It would stupid for me to state my opinion without thinking about and doing some research first. Though i will participate in this conversation once i feel i have a better understand of the topic.

    How did inequality relate to his comments to Charles Heston? I remember him expecting some rediculous questiosn to be answered, that Heston couldn't. The point is that he knows they cannot be answered.

    Like i said, haven't seen it in a while. Also, like i said, he has good intentions, i just do not agree with his methods.
