A scene from Bowling for Columbine 2002
Michael Moore

[Moore speaking to Evan McCollum, Director of Communications at a Lockheed Martin plant near Columbine]

"So you don't think our kids say to themselves, 'Dad goes off to the factory every day, he builds missiles of mass destruction.' What's the difference between that mass destruction and the mass destruction over at Columbine High School?"

McCollum

I guess I don't see that specific connection because the missiles that you're talking about were built and designed to defend us from somebody else who would be aggressors against us."
