I saw that article earlier today. Would love to hear someones opinion if they've seen the book. Might make a nice Christmas present for my daughter this year.

Even MSNBC has to kowtow to the mid-30's to mid-60's female demographic... it's the largest and most lucrative advertising audience in the nation.

Wow. I really enjoyed that--especially the tasteful photos of everyday women with their firearms.

From the link.
�I learned two main lessons while working on this book,� said McCrum, who divides her time between New York City and California when she isn�t traveling for work. �One is that on the subject of guns, nobody is neutral. And the other is that when you get outside of the blue-state cities, everybody has a gun.�
Be really great if some particular politicians made note of that.

It was interesting flipping through the slideshow and reading the captions. I also noted a lot of the women in the slideshow are from California.
