Truth.... This Is It....
we watched bowling for columbine,,,,at school...
something i must agree upon (of course)
and... ive seen it before
so i kinda know this part off by heart cas its too scary...too true..
michael moore talks to marilyn manson....
M.M-When I was a kid growing up,
music was the escape.
That's the only thing
that had no judgements.
You can put on a record
and it's not gonna yell at you
for dressing the way you do.
It's gonna make you
feel better about it.
M.Manson-I definitely can see
why they would pick me,
because I think it's easy
to throw my face on a TV,
because I'm, in the end,
sort of a poster boy for fear.
Because I represent
what everyone's afraid of,
because I do and say
what I want.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The two by-products of
that whole tragedy were, uh...
violence in entertainment
and gun control.
And how perfect that
that was the two things
that we were gonna talk about
with the upcoming election.
And also, then we forgot
about Monica Lewinsky
and we forgot about...
The president was shooting
bombs overseas,
yet I'm a bad guy because I sing
some rock'n'roll songs.
And who's a bigger influence,
the president or Marilyn Manson?
I'd like to think me, but I'm
gonna go with the president.
Do you know the day
that Columbine happened,
the United States dropped
more bombs on Kosovo
than any other time
during that war?
I do know that and I think
that's really ironic,
that nobody said, "Well, maybe
the president had an influence
on this violent behaviour.
Because that's not the way
the media wants to take it
and spin it
and turn it into fear.
'Cause then you're
watching television,
you're watching the news; you're
being pumped full of fear.
And there's floods,
there's AIDS, there's murder.
You cut to commercial,
buy the Acura, buy the Colgate.
If you have bad breath,
they're not gonna talk to you.
If you got pimples,
the girl's not gonna fuck you.
It's a campaign of fear
and consumption.
And that's what I think
that's it's all based on,
is the whole idea that:
keep everyone afraid,
and they'll consume.
And that's really as simple
- as it can be boiled down to.
- Right.
michael moore-If you were to talk directly
to the kids at Columbine
and the people
in that community,
what would you say to them,
if they here right now?
m.manson-I wouldn't say
a single word to them.
I would listen to what
they have to say.
And that's what no one did.
pure excellence
