What would you say the point of Bowling for Columbine is, then? I re-watched it recently and came to a similar conclusion, that at the very least the anti-gun message of it seems to be a weak conclusion, since Moore spends a lot of time discussing weapon access but also discussing how a place like Canada has many more guns but (EDIT: apparently this claim is false. I was just recounting what I remembered from Bowling for Columbine, so either the film or my memory was wrong) less gun violence. So, then I couldn't decide if there was a thesis to the work, and if so what it was.
