    Bowling For Columbine :: Movie Review

    “There are whackos out there,” says John Nichols of why the second amendment should not necessarily be extended to nuclear bomb making material. Nichols, who sleeps with a .44 magnum under his pillow, says that brother Terry (now serving a life sentence for his involvement in the infamous Oklahoma City bombing) and friend Timothy McVeigh were unjustified in taking 186 innocent lives. Nichols asserts that violence is a last resort after talking, which he says was not attempted in the Oklahoma City case, fails. But if communications do fail, as Nichols fears they will, he enthusiastically promises that the streets of America will run with blood. Yikes.
