When I wrote The Warhol Gang, I included a couple of “gun culture” scenes — one a corporate team-building event that takes place at a shooting theme park in the mall called Gun World, the other a Rampaging Office Co-Worker emergency drill.

At the time, I thought I was writing a satire or black comedy about American culture, and I worried I was going too far. I never really thought I was forecasting actual American culture. But then I read about things like Gun TV, and I realize I didn’t go far enough….

Don’t even get me started on the livestreaming and viral videos part of The Warhol Gang….
