Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gun When I came back from serving overseas there was nowhere or nothing that suited me better than falling in with my brothers in the Devil's Iron. The freedom we have found and the way of life that we share is something I needed after returning from the hell of multiple tours overseas. Being able to live the life that I wanted, the way I wanted, was exactly what I did. Living for no one but my brothers was all I wanted until the day I met her. Sara fought so hard against the feelings we shared from the start. It took me so long to break down the walls she had built up and get close to her. I didn't think anything would come between us. I was wrong and she left without a word. Now she is back and if she thinks that she doesn't have to answer to me for her bratish behavior she is fucking wrong. Sara My adult life has been one of controlled chaos. I might like to cut lose and have fun just like any other single thirty-something girl, but that is where it ends. For fucks sake, I'm the one that introduced Ember to the Devil's Iron MC. I am the one that started her going to the BDSM club in New Orleans. I have no problem letting my freak flag fly, but that is the extent that it goes. I will not involve myself in the sort of lifestyle that he is in. Not for longer than one night, not again, not if I have anything to say or do about it. It doesn't matter that he broke down my walls once. Or even that my heart has been his since the first time I saw him. My job and life are the way they are for a reason and I, for one, will not change it for anyone, even Gun.

Download or read book Gunfight written by Ryan Busse and published by Public Affairs. This book was released on 2023-04-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A former firearms executive pulls back the curtain on America's multibillion-dollar gun industry, exposing how it fostered extremism and racism, radicalizing the nation and bringing cultural division to a boiling point. As an avid hunter, outdoorsman, and conservationist-all things that the firearms industry was built on-Ryan Busse chased a childhood dream and built a successful career selling millions of firearms for one of America's most popular gun companies. But blinded by the promise of massive profits, the gun industry abandoned its self-imposed decency in favor of hardline conservatism and McCarthyesque internal policing, sowing irreparable division in our politics and society. That drove Busse to do something few other gun executives have done: he's ending his 30-year career in the industry to show us how and why we got here. Gunfight is an insider's call-out of a wild, secretive, and critically important industry. It shows us how America's gun industry shifted from prioritizing safety and ethics to one that is addicted to fear, conspiracy, intolerance, and secrecy. It recounts Busse's personal transformation and shows how authoritarianism spreads in the guise of freedom, how voicing one's conscience becomes an act of treason in a culture that demands sameness and loyalty. Gunfight offers a valuable perspective as the nation struggles to choose between armed violence or healing.
