This has nothing to do with me trying to help myself, even though a tag I struck out in the 2 previous draws is still available somehow :rolleyes:... I'm looking out for everyone out there in huntalk land!
Finished Gunfight, really feel like there was an opportunity for it to be non-partisan and still talk about his story and his thoughts about gun control. However it just really turned into D good, R bad.
Moving on to a lighter book, Me Caribou is on fire; International Adventures of An...
I'm working on Gunfight by Ryan Busse. Definitely don't agree with him on a lot, but he makes some very valid points. It's an uncomfortable read, but I feel it's important to have some of those for some personal growth.
