Marilyn Manson in Bowling for Columbine

[Nielzcore]

anyone knows where i can find the speech where a protester says: some will be so brash to ask .... this would be greatly appreciated

[trixiigirlful]

Bitches be tripping!!

-.-

Manson pointed out real facts.

[SuperTowlie420]

wow manson was right on every level, much respect for manson

[DorixDoll]

When micheal said "They had become little monsters" .. i inevetably thought of lady gaga

[justgonzalez]

His answer to the last question was perfect

[justgonzalez]

Damn.. the last part was powerful

[AceObrin]

"You're being pumped full of fear: there's floods, there's AIDS, there's murder. Cut to commercial: buy the Acura, buy the Colgate, if ya have bad breath, they're not gonna talk to ya; if ya got pimples, the gir'l's not gonna fuck you. It's a campaign of fear and consumption." So dead on. And with the quote at the end, of course.

[mechaghostman2]

What is hte song that he is playing?

[WinterSoilder]

It was two kids who had been picked on for far too long while no one did anything about that and who had parents who didn't pay enough attention to them. It was purely enviornmental, tragic as it was. Didn't have anything to do with whatever entertainment media they were into.

[ethankernaghan]

guy speaking says something or rather about 'manson promoting hate and voilence' then further goes on to say.. we won't let this happen.. 'not without a fight you can't!' hehimself is implying that fighting will help. manson didn't say anything about a fight.. HE DID.. hypocracy? i think so.

oh but wait a second that's right i'm the stereotypical marilyn manson fan... i'll be back later.. off to worship satan

eh, bunch of junk.. people are too confident talking about things they know nothing off

[kayisforkivlen]

this pissed me off. MANSON IS GOD.

[myqueensindel]

Marilyn Manson is one smart ass nigga. People just need someone to blame and they chose him because they couldn't take the blame for themselves. they know nothing about Marilyn Manson or his work. The man has his head more perfectly screwed on his neck than any religious nuts at some wacky protest.

Keep it up Manson.

[13anonymous37]

Oh Lieberman. Bwahahahahahha!

[NikTearsRain]

they need someone to blame... too often video games were the reason... so why not taking marilyn manson?... But don't think of social problems caused by the WHOLE SOCIETY! this would be incredible... MUSIC CUASES VILENCE RAAAARRRHRHRHRGRGRSDJFJDFBDSH.­. bull my shit

[catnametamachan]

マリリン･マンソンは関係ない。アメリカという国そのものが原因­だ。

[PlanbSk8rGirl]

they are basicly saying the kids who listen to manson are the bullys but im a big fan and im the one who gets bullied for it.

[Clarnetplayer07]

I don't think it matters rather the kids listened to Marilyn Manson's music or not. It's the simple fact that they were either the bullies or the bullied in school. Because the fact that, it's the kids behavior that had this outcome, not Marilyn Manson's.

[FourChanJunkie]

Marilyn's last words in the interview say it all. "I wouldn't say a word to em. I would listen, which is what nobody did." They were two teens, bullied in school. They had anger problems, and weren't going to take it anymore. It's really as simple as that. It's easy to blame something you don't understand, which is what was done with Columbine. In the end, what it comes down to is this; Nobody understood them, or Manson's music, so they put them together to give people a "reason." Good plan, eh?

[Allamun]

wtf??? was this for real? is america that fucked up??? wtf??? kids transform into monsters if they listen to rock and heavy meta???

[TheAtomic1234321]

@Allamun Lol where are you from? Dont u no America always does that

[EL4N4R]

@Allamun Rock and heavy metal is the source of all the world problems and every wife beaten is a wife who told her husband to turn down the volume.

Sarcastic hat. on.

[AnimeKitte]

You learn in the book that Eric liked hardcore industrial German rock. Dylan loved Nine Inch Nails. Their music had NOTHING to do with it and did not influence them to do that. They were very angry teens and were tired of people acting like the world is all joyful and perfect and people teasin em for being unique. It's just stupid how when something like that happens, people automatically blame music .

Marilyn Manson is AMAZING. He doesn't deserve the crap he gets.

[birdy47]

People always want to know what Movies they were watching or Games they Played or Music They Listened to.

Couldnt they have just been Crazy?

[dawgsfan514]

michael moore is so stupid. i hate this movie. and marilyn manson has amazing philosophy. too bad his music doesnt exactly pitch his philosophy on the world. in a sense, it does, but most people are too dumb to comprehend it. like michael moore and the stupid religious fanatics.

[dawgsfan514]

michael moore is so stupid. i hate this movie. and marilyn manson has amazing philosophy. too bad his music doesnt exactly pitch his philosophy on the world. in a sense, it does, but most people are too dumb to comprehend it.

[Renwana77]

i love mm but i feel manson is more innocent thn south park.

[yankees032778]

Both of these guys are nuts but they both make good points

[jeremybdman]

"I would listen to what they have to say, cause that's what no one else did" talk about a true fucking closing statement, Manson really gets it...

[gaararocksON]

WHY BLAME HIM

[SaraJL17]

@gaararocksON

Because it's always easier to blame someone else, rather than confront the truth (a.k.a. the political system is f***** up.)

[bestswedish]

fuck religion!!

[kerst410]

I think Marilyn is a very, very smart man. When people panic, they're quick to point fingers. If violence was the cause, he certainly was not the root of it. People are going to look for the first guy that isn't scared to express what ever he wants, how he wants.

[LenaGaga100]

this must have hurt his feelings alot

[Vampirelover159]

FUCKING PEOPLE....... FUCK, if I could SOOOOO slap the WHOLE FUCKING WORLD I would....... Marilyn, Don't listen to them.... You are a wonderfull man. and I bet if thous children could talk to you none of this would have happend..... Marilyn Manson is a role model. Maybe not for EVERYTHING , but for somethings yes.... He keeps calmwhen people say shit about him and talk shit about him... Just cuz he has 10 pounds of makeup and has a tatoo dont make hima freak.... and THAT really pisses me offf.

[xvPinkfloydvx]

@Vampirelover159 yeah and this puke face really gives a shit about you???? LOL People don't like this clown. It is children that want to act cool.

[Trekkspillgutten]

@xvPinkfloydvx yes, his music "sounds" badass, but if you listen to the text you will see that it makes sense even if there is a lot of fuckbombs and all that. It just the same as judging someone cuz of their appearance, wich a lot of Manson haters do!

[rossyboiZ]

@xvPinkfloydvx

Nobody listen to this asshole, he's just trying to piss of fans.

[Nettles45]

Manson is one the most well spoken rock stars out there imo.

[Sozucki]

@Nettles45 well spoken rockstar and people alltogether

[Nettles45]

@Sozucki Yea its funny how one of the more "shocking" people out there just so happens to be smarter and more put together than the "average" person. This is why I listen to rock and metal.... it makes more sense.

[11crissi11catz]

i hate that stupid dickhead up on tht stand

[ciscohorselady]

he said only the true! more should say it clearly like this! eric harris , dylan klebold ,kip kinkel or who ever was shooting at school-they never shoot because they listen to that music,watch this movies like NBK ,play games like DOOM or stuff like that,why are so many people so silly and fucking dumb that they only want to go the easy way"oh yeah,that were those crazy kids who listen to rockmusic,play ego shooters,watch tarantino movies...i say fuck you all! you are the reason why it dont stop

[agiraldi1]

manson is not a sick guy, he makes music how can you judge something because of what they like or do.... you don't know him fuck all you judgemental assholes

[xvPinkfloydvx]

He is so desperate for attention!!

[Twiztidillusions17]

@xvPinkfloydvx if he was desperate for attention he would of done the many more millions of interviews for columbine but, he didn't because he didn't want the attention he did do this one because he was tired of everyone blaming him he has good views and great points and it is kind of hard for a huge celebrate how can they really just stop getting attention who wouldn't like attention

[xvPinkfloydvx]

Do you people no that Marilyn Manson named his self after the Movie star marilyn Monroe and his last name is manson because of the murderer Charles manson???? He is a creepy ,sick twisted motherf----

[canuchange]

@xvPinkfloydvx  he's a genius, takes peoples morals and twist them to give a different view

[xXjokkeXx09]

@xvPinkfloydvx fuck you your a stupid basterd guy fuck you burn in hell

[xvPinkfloydvx]

@xXjokkeXx09  why don't you go burn in hell with the woman Marilyn. LOL. Are you his dick rider??? LOL

[dustynutz82]

@xvPinkfloydvx ur a pink floyd fan he was a straight up fagbag dousher ur a fukin hipacrit an u make no sense at all so put on a floyd record an beatoff i hope manson visits u in ur sleep MANSON 4 PRESIDENT v

[xvPinkfloydvx]

@dustynutz82 Learn how to spell and suck your faggot marilyn faggot off. LOL

[xvPinkfloydvx]

@xXjokkeXx09 you need to burn in hell with that ugly worthless bitch ass creep.

[SaraJL17]

@xvPinkfloydvx

"I picked that (Marilyn Manson) as the fakest stage name of all to say that this is what show business is, fake. Marilyn Monroe wasn't even her real name, Charles Manson isn't his real name, and now, I'm taking that to be my real name. But what's real? You can't find the truth, you just pick the lie you like the best. As long as you know everything's a lie, you can't hurt yourself." - to clear it up for you. Read something!

Btw, Pink Floyd made too good music for you,douche-bags.

[DaZedNCoFused24]

@xvPinkfloydvx

He named himself after a beautiful person and an evil person. To show the sides of good and evil inside of everyone. What everyone views as shocking his his way of pointing out how shocking the world around us can be. The way everyone threw things his way when this happened. The reason he didn't do interviews was because he didn't want to give those kids what the media gave them. Immortality. Fame. Recognition.

[TheAtomic1234321]

Does anyone no who that guy is that says this is perhaps the sickest group?

[MrHouliee]

@TheAtomic1234321 Someone most likely already told you, but It's a senator named Joe Lieberman.

[mlinar13b]

wasn't america founded on radical views and freedom of expression?!?! fukin media........

[TheElectricDreamer93]

Best interveiw ever.

[7immortal7]

damet garm..he was right listen to him

[316rox]

FUCK PROTESTS

[TheZombiePanda]

He's a genious. C:

[flogmolly]

Coming from someone whose written way too many English essays about this stuff: Cycles of consumerism and fear, promotion of deviant behavior... come on. The public's reactions stemmed from the American way of instant gratification. Since everybody in the nation felt victimized by these horrific murderous, many people felt the need to blame someone or something for the kids' actions. I bet now that a few years have passed, many of those who blamed Manson would have a more reverent opinion.

[kryplice]

This guy is maybe a freak, but he's a freak for some reason and what more, he's pretty smart.

[Paulwhoisvegan]

Obama is too nice to shoot bombs at another country.

[elektrometro]

obama is a motherfucker

[toadsniffing]

"I wouldn't say a single word to them, I would listen to what they had to say. And that's what no one did."

Right on.

[LittleMissEllyanora]

0.43 BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH

what an idiot-_-

[godofwar5]

that retarded in the blue shirt pissed me off, hes a fucking joke. so are those religious assholes. MM is the best.

[xxsupermanskaterxx]

people think that, you know because marilyn manson dresses the way he does and sings the way he does, that he is a bad man, if these people would stop bitching fort one minute, and listen to what he has to say, they would realise he is an intellegent man, and not some aggressive lunatic, whic the media portrays him.

[071234566]

fuck thoso who sais MM has a falt .... cuz you don;t understat the wors in his songs so get a life

[tzbling]

fucking religious retards ! GET A LIFE

[partymonsterkid]

marilyn manson didnt do anything to cause the columbine shooting.does britney spears promote sexuality?NO!

everyone should leave manson the fuck alone.

[xvPinkfloydvx]

@partymonsterkid Brittany hasn't caused everyone to kill themselves. Why the fuck would this asshole name his self after charles manson???? He was a mass murderer??? Fucking creep.

[Starryz1221cy]

Marilyn Manson sings about explicit things, and people blames him. You don't see people blame George Bush for promoting violence.

[ladykillakid]

There is no actual evidence that proves that Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold even listened to Manson.

[bonerpopper]

There was another school shooting with a boy who killed his parents and went and shot up a school who listened to manson. maybe thats why they think columbine was his fault. Dunno if people didnt have their heads so far up their ass, they would realize that hes a smart motherfucker.

[jakeholm]

i like and listen to his music, but it doesn't influence me at all or anything. but my parents think hes so bad, they don't know. but yeah, hes a smart guy.

[JulieMilano]

Well played Marilyn Manson, well played.

[Sloane67665]

Sure they can only blame manson because they think he's a satan worshiper. But if they tried to blame a rapper for the columbine, which would be more accurate, they would be considered racist and be ignored. in the end they are all pathetic and manson has to talk his way around religious retards who need to stfu.

[diabo147]

Marilyn Manson is a reverend in the church of satan dude, i agree with the rest of your statement but

[Sloane67665]

Satanism is being responsible for your own actions, not cutting yourself around a pentagram, you can't blame anyone else for something YOU do because that would be stupid( which is a sin to satanists), nor should you credit god for your acomplishments because YOU are the one who suceeded . People believe in satan more than god because you see more evil in the world than good.

[diabo147]

i am aware, i was just making sure you knew that he is in fact a Satanist. i am currently under age but i have done my research on satanism and plan to become a recognized member when i can

[xxsupermanskaterxx]

exactly

[emerson24]

@Sloane67665 There is more evil in the world because that's what's presented in the media. However, goodness trumps evil in the world. If there was more evil in the world, there would chaos everywhere at every moment.

[Sloane67665]

@emerson24 It's actually vice versa. If you would look up from your cell phone and stop txting you'd see that there is a shit load of chaos everywhere. wars, rapes, murders, molestation, assassination, women getting their ears and nose cut off because they tried to leave their abusive husbands, BP pumping a petro-chemical substance into water. corrupt businessmen trying to carve this country up so theres more for them and less for you. pro-life(anti-women) activists killing doctors. fuck hope!

[emerson24]

@Sloane67665 I agree pretty much with 95% of what you said, we just differ in the intensity of such evil in the world. I think the evil doers of this world are essentially a very small group of people. I call them the illuminati. The small group creates most all of what you have mentioned, either directly or indirectly. However, in our every day lives, there is far more good than bad. Perhaps I'm including being civil to one another as a good. I am not stabbing my neighbor, or are U or most.

[britishpony]

@Sloane67665 i'm a Christian, and i totally agree with you. very well put sir.

[Bogie3Flare]

No he is not, he spoke at one once but is not part of the religion even.

[Gameinggames]

epic quote in the end

[FreeTheArt]

You know what's crazy?

The kids didn't actually listen to Marilyn Manson.

[xvPinkfloydvx]

@FreeTheArt they do because they want to act cool. They don't like his shit music or him.

[Mansonbears360]

@FreeTheArt wait! i did!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was ten when ifirst listened to him! my first song was Heart Shaped Glasses!!!!!

[dannymillion]

@FreeTheArt actually, they did..

[LeGette88]

@FreeTheArt actually idiot, do some more research.. eric harris LOVED marilyn manson, buy his diarry that has recently been published as a BOOK. he mentions how more people should be like marilyn manson.. like being open to homosexuality, and seeing through the media, and seein thru our political leaders.... so SHHHH :)

[ooSilverSurferoo]

I think he gets so much credit because so many people expect people who appear that way to be disturbed and dangerous, which ironically is still the case. There are exceptions, as he is one, but exceptions don't make the rule.

[ooSilverSurferoo]

I would say he's a very average guy. Someone who definitely wants attention. I do remember looking up to him and thinking he was an artistic genius. After having grown up and made a mistake in joining the military (consequently fighting twice in Iraq) and seeing what death really looks like and feels like, I'd have to say he is a very run of the mill character who understands no more or less than what your average joe does. Absolutely nothing beyond average.

[SunsetFlare]

I don't listen to Marilyn Manson's music at all, but his interview did surprise me. Behind all the crazy make-up and music he actually sounds like a pretty sensible guy.

[JoshRobertson142]

yeah his music is shit!!!! but he's very smart, i must give him that

[zacharythomasmartin]

what he said is one of the most genius things ever. he peronofies realizations. what he says is real and true. maybe is music doesn't portray it but his voice does. listen

[GlassxXxTears]

i find it so stupid when people blame an artist for some form of violence. the music didnt kill anyone, the music didnt make the people think that hurting people was okay, they did. and what marilyn manson said was completly true. he has a real way with words and his intelligence really shows in this interveiw. i love his music and i have so much respect for him.

[dgenerate707]

Besise the song he did for WWF Smackdown I really can't get into his music, But I respect the hell out him and the part about the commercials is so truth pumping fear into those who are so unsecure about them selves and afraid of being unaccepted by the rest of society.

[xXXRehabXXx1]

the fight song

[ManoftheYear101]

I hate Marilyn Manson's music, but the man is very very smart

[erfansvideos]

why does this video have 4stars? It should have 5!

[colonel500]

Wow marilyn manson the blame XDXD he rocks!!! i love the last sentence "i wouldnt say a single word to them, i would listen to what they have to say,and thats what noone did" blew my mind XD

[josephNYY2]

Know what the problem is! Everybody has something to blame! Nobody wants to take the time to stop and look at themselves. Nobody looks inside themselves. Inside... you see the whole thing. You see the good, bad, the evil, you see all. How much Evil is there? As much as you see, as much as you feel. You shouldn't take the figure and point for blame, because that's not what god made it for. Religious people fear to much. They run from death and fear. Cowards die many times before there own death.

[ErikWithBrain]

"Keep everyone afraid, and they'll consume."

That's so simple but true.

[BaCCOONNx]

That cracked me up when he said satan!! But seriously, they're dancing around the main reason this happened: The Parents!!

[donothinglemurs]

those people made assumptions that the reason this happened was because of marilyn manson, but there was no evidence that the killers even listened to him. i totally agree on everything manson says.the only reason he was blamed was because it was easier for the public to believe the government and media.

the american media are such con-men...

[15HeavyMetalHead333]

oh my god. last sentence gave me major chills. but its so true.
