"Bowling for Columbine" is pure genius. Literally, it maps out exactly where two young men were traumatized with the economy they found themselves locked into in Littleton, Colorado.
While this meeting was going on and Twitter was roaring as well as an audience participation live streaming, CNN's Don Lemon was asking some expert about the level of sociopaths we are finding in our teenagers these days.
You've got to be joking. The genius of Moore was bringing a live event about the gun culture, the culture of fear and violence in the USA and CNN's response was to talk about a growing population of sociopaths in USA teenagers? What kind of mess is that? CNN's eyes should have been actively stating what a great event was transpiring in New York City to organize awareness to bring about gun control to prevent deaths.
No respect. This movement has absolutely no respect from anyone. Everyone quakes in fear of the NRA while 56% of Americans want a ban on assault weapons. Are you all crazy?
There is no escalation in sociopathic behavior in our teenagers. None. There are no psychopaths being churned out of our high schools. This is American media at it's best?
You all ought to be ashamed.

The two ads posted on the group's website, called "Responsible" and "Family," show a gun owner holding a rifle while sitting on the back of a pickup truck....
