However, Moore is too subjective on his argument that the government is not being responsible for taking care of the poor which causes this tragedy to happen. He blames the U.S. government’s poor welfare system for causing all gun-related deaths in America. Being too subjective on his point, he does not take an objective point of view to look at this issue that gun violence might not be caused by the lack of help from the government. In one of the web articles, the writer refutes the claim made in the documentary. It says that “Once in a while, Moore goes down a rat hole. He tries, with limited success, to blame the death of a six year old girl on world for welfare program. If you follow his convoluted logic, it makes a certain kind of sense, but he’s stretching things. A more likely culprit is the uncle who didn’t keep his gun safely locked away from the youngster who brought it to school and fired it. Strangely, Moore never addresses the issue of fun responsibility and safety.” (James Berardinelli) By blaming the welfare program, it is unfair to the government. Surely, the welfare program has nothing to do with the gun violence; rather it is the lack of gun responsibility and safety which causes it to happen. If the six year old boy’s uncle keeps his gun in a safe place where children cannot access easily, the six year old boy would not get a chance to bring the gun to school and fire it. In here, audiences need to be aware of falling into Moore’s tactics of his subjective point of view. They should look from a different perspective of the gun violence to conclude whether Moore’s argument is correct or not.

please make it stronger and more professional. Correct any grammar mistakes if necessary. thank you

Moore is far too subjective in his argument that the government's irresponsibility in taking care of the poor has resulted in this tragedy. He blames the U.S. government’s shoddy welfare system for causing all gun-related deaths in America. Moore lacks an objective viewpoint and cannot comprehend the possibility that gun violence may not necessarily stem from the government's lack of responsibility. In a web article, author James Berardinelli refutes Moore's claim that a six-year-old girl's death should be blamed on the World for Welfare program (*Is that program name right?*). Berardinelli makes the point that if we were to "follow [Moore's] convoluted logic, it makes a certain kind of sense, but he’s stretching things. A more likely culprit is the uncle who didn’t keep his gun safely locked away from the youngster who brought it to school and fired it. Strangely, Moore never addresses the issue of gun responsibility and safety" (Berardinelli). Moore's tactic of blaming welfare programs is entirely unfair to the government. It is the astounding lack of gun responsibility and safety which leads to tragedies and accidents. If the said six-year-old boy’s uncle had kept the gun in a safe place where children cannot access it, the possibility of bringing the gun to school would have been eliminated. Thus, the blame cannot and should not be traced back to the welfare programs, but instead to the immediate gun owner's responsibility. Audiences need to be vigilant in order to avoid being lured into Moore’s convincing arguments, built by his subjective point of view. To truly assess the ramifications and causes of gun violence, we must look at the situation from all perspectives to conclude whether or not Moore's argument is, in fact, justifiable.
