What Moore's "Documentary" fails to show is that most (over 90%, don't know the exact stat) guns used in crime are posessed illegally. It also fails to show the FBI figures that credit privately owned firearms with stopping about 1.2 million crimes per year. The reason firearm crime seems so rampant in the US is the "if it bleeds, it leads" mentality of the media. In reference to the comment about TV in Newfoundland, the US Media could easily show the same type of news, but they'd never get the advertising dollars that they get with their bloody mentality.
