1/26/17 Providing claims in documentaries Jake Vreeland

Today, January 25th, 2017 as a classed we continued watching and explaining the documentary Bowling for Columbine.  We are using this film as an example to pick out the claims of a documentary and explaining it.  In about a month the longest essay I have ever written will be due and it will explain the claim my documentary states.  Today the film showed a bunch of short interviews of some people.  So far none of them have to do with the incident in Columbine.  He uses the interviews to exploit the not so smart people.  He uses them with talking about guns and violence and how its not safe.  He even shows a bunch of adults bundled up with warm clothes and guns to their sides, while a baby is basically naked walking around.  He also shows the kind crazy people who operate guns and bombs.  This one man held up a loaded gun to his head like it was nothing.  For the rest of week we will watch this somewhat comedic film and analyze it more to help write our own paper.
