Colubine Essay

Guns are too easy to get in the U.S.A. In this documentary Michael Moore shows the audience how guns are too easy to get in the U.S. like when he walked into a local Michigan bank and opens up an account so the bank  hands him a free gun. Also mostly all the Wal-marts and K-marts sold ammo for weapons in there stores. And everybody in the U.S. can own a gun in there homes.
            Michael Moore spots an ad in the Michigan newspaper on how he can go to the North Country bank, open up an account and receive a new gun. So he goes to the bank and goes up the counter and tells the banker that he wants to open up the account with the free gun. The bank holds around five hundred fire arms in their vault at all times. So he goes to the back and has to fill out papers and the banker has to do a background check on him. The North Country bank is a licensed fire arm dealer and a bank. So after all that sure enough they give him a brand new gun so Michael asked the man who gave him the gun if he thought it was dangerous to be handing out guns at a bank.

The lady leaves and brings down a man who is in charge of buying the bullets for K-mart; those  guys left and didn’t come back so Michael, Richard, and Mark left. As they were leaving they came up with an idea to go to the local K-mart and buy out all their bullets so they did. The next day they went back to K-mart headquarters and brought the press. A lady came out and announcted that K-mart will no longer be selling ammo in their stores.
            Michael Moore goes to a school called Buell Elementary were a little 6 year old girl gets shot and dies from a little 6 year old boy. The boy found a gun in his uncles house so he took it to school and shot a girl; all people in America should not be able to own guns in their home.
