Seems like a real niche audience for the most recent addition to the Little Library down the street… but if @stevevance @JGrantGlover or anybody else want it, it’s at 1330(ish) S Wabash. Enjoy!

Reminder: the single best predictor that someone is likely to be a mass shooter is that they are a white male with a history of domestic violence.
