Jonathan Rauch:

Still one of my favorite gay boyfriends.

Also, unlike the case with Jeff, I don't have to fight over him with the other Cotillionites. *

Seriously. There are a handful of demographic subgroups that need to know how to handle guns. These are: (1) Jews, (2) women, (3) blacks, (4) gays, (5) the elderly—and (6) everyone else.


* Actually, the other ladies backed off after I told them I once out-shot Jan Libourel (then with Handguns, now with Gun World). It's a long story, but a true one. (It's Mr. Libourel who is responsible for my lifelong ambition of owning a Colt Commander. What a sweet gun: Jan has one with ivory inlays that shoots .38 Super. You didn't even know that gun existed in .38 Super, did you?

But first, like everyone else on the planet, I want a German Luger. Bad.)

1 And I'm 110% behind any effort to get members of traditionally left-leaning groups comfortable with handguns. That'll nip future gun control efforts in the bud like nothing else the right could do.

2 One problem with .38 Super is that they don't make any factor defense ammo that's optimal (that's to say, designed with modern technology). You can reload good .38 Super ammo using Speer Gold Dot bullets, and get first rate performance that way. Otherwise, for practicle purposes you are better off with a 9mm, .40, or .45. I'd like a .38 Super myself. The .38 Super was popular in Mexico and back in the '20s and '30s, so it has some good history.
