LKH Lashouts

Right now, with all the gun violence going on in the nation and the growing controversy over concealed carry (and the open carry people bringing assault rifles into Target and other locations), I...just feel sick looking at this. I know Laurell's not a danger to anyone. I know there's nothing wrong with practicing with firearms recreationally, or being fascinated by the various types of firearms, their design, their history. But right now, just in context...this leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I may be in the minority, though. There's really no reason to make an association between one author being harmlessly twee about how badass she is and the complete clusterfuck we're going through as a nation. Maybe I'm just more sensitive because where I live--Chicago--over a hundred people have been shot in the past week, 15 or more of them dead. So I'm twitchy.
