Ah a pleasant few minutes reading the PC nuts, and marking all the wacko never read the book reviews as no value.

Heh, another doughy white guy.

Am I talking about using a gun? No. I'm talking about Comic Sans. This book is typeset in COMIC SANS. For the love of all that is good and pure, Mr. Jeffs, if you don't want your ideas about open carry to sound crazy, how about you write about it in a legible font that went out with Windows 95?

Best. Review. Ever.

Also... omg, "Dick Strong?" Really?

What struck me most about this book is how the male, middle aged author has managed to get in to the head of a thirteen year old girl so accurately.
I also like the customer image where all of the people on the book cover have been changed from white to black.

Some day, I want to see a TV show where a professional pickpocket steals a man's gun. That would certainly be an "oh shit" moment when you realize your gun is missing and you have no idea where it went.

And I'd laugh at that just as hard as those Amazon reviews. Guns aren't phones, they're almost always kept in holsters (even pocket holsters) that are specifically designed to retain them so they don't slip out accidentally. Not to mention even the lightest pocket pistol is going to be 11 oz loaded, you'll feel the difference in weight quite readily if it somehow gets lifted without the entire holster jerking around to alert you to a gun grab.

But then again I've enjoyed shows where cops go on about leg shots like it's a viable and perfectly non-lethal tactic, so hell maybe it could work. :)

Saw it posted on George Takei's Facebook feed yesterday. None of the reviews / comments I read were funny enough to make me laugh.

He often does post Amazon products with hilarious reviews though.
