L'objectif de Moore était d’offrir une explication au massacre de Columbine et, au-delà, de tenter de comprendre pourquoi les États-Unis ont un taux de crimes violents plus élevé que les autres pays. Moore ne ménage pas les laudateurs de l'industrie des armes, mais sa réflexion va plus loin. Bowling for Columbine évoque le rôle de la politique étrangère folle des États-Unis et de la course obscène à l'acquisition d’armes de destruction massive, dans le développement d’une culture de la violence. De façon encore plus significative, Moore étudie la façon dont les médias américains, avec leur couverture obsessionnelle de la criminalité, créent un climat de peur dans ce pays, un climat qui finit par encourager la violence. 2, record 3, French, - culture%20de%20la%20violence
