Good read. It gets a bit preachy about how progressives are such terrible ppl especially when he talks about the the war on drugs. Weed was criminalized primarily because Harry Anslinger a right winger and don’t get me started on just say no.

But his points about guns are legit and I love that he talks about the need to gain allies I hope his next book on guns stresses that instead of bashing ppl on the left who are the allies he needs.
