On April 20, 1999, the campus shooting at Columbine High School in the suburbs of Denver, the United States, was a wound that was difficult to heal in the hearts of many Americans. At 11:19 that morning, two students from the school held guns on the campus of the University. A total of 15 students and school workers were killed at their guns and 21 others were injured. After this tragic incident happened, director Michael Moore was greatly touched. He found that for incidents such as shootings and bomb threats, even if they were only individual cases, they would cause great trauma to the entire society. However, 10 days after the shooting, people have not yet recovered from their grief. American Firearms Association Chairman Charlton Heston came to the suburbs of Denver and smiled with his comrades and said that they are fans of guns. The ban on guns must pass their level first. This arrogant and unsympathetic attitude completely aroused Moore's anger, so he decided to shoot a film to criticize the US gun management policy.

Not only recorded the incident in 1999! Instead, discuss all kinds of ills in America! I don't know when China will be able to make films that dare to tell the truth
