as stated... that is correct...

clearly Kyle has tapped into a major nerve with his book...and has  
elicited all kinds of reflexive reactions...

he has done so with a master's touch, great photos, and not without a  
little opportunism..


The only aspect that in fact gives me pause in that the subjects were  
all self selected...
it appears that they all wanted to be posed and photographed in their  
homes, with their guns...

I am not sure how to interpret that...
