For longtime gun-owners and former NRA sympathizers wondering how we got from the good old days of the old NRA and traditional gun industry to today’s lunatic “tactical” gun culture, the new book ‘Gunfight’ by former gun-company executive @ryandbusse is the place to start.

Spending the holidays reading Elmore Leonard novels. (Swag, Rum Punch, and Hombre...so far.) Here's a 1956 ad in the New Yorker for a Detroit advertising agency that highlighted a star copywriter who wrote westerns in his spare time. https://t.co/PCDsAxku0Q

Currently reading Stanford historian Richard White’s “The Republic for Which It Stands,” a history of Reconstruction and the Gilded Age. It echoes the conflicts of our current era, but is also somehow reassuring. We survived worse. https://t.co/Whha4e4GjR

Speaking of Billy Wilder... and how brilliant is Gloria Swanson in every scene of Sunset Boulevard; she was only 50 years old and, according to Wikipedia, only 4' 11" tall. The illusion she creates is so complete, people believe she had to be just like Norma Desmond in real life. https://t.co/VLf4NMvy9D
