I really love Child of God actually. Its pacing, I think is really wonderful because each chapter is only a couple of pages long, and it's cool how the story unfolds into something pretty fucked up. The only other McCarthy I've read is Blood Meridian. I like Child of God better because, while not as "deep" or whatever like BM, it is much more exciting, IMO.

You know that safety is not related to the owning of guns, right? It is due to many factors, mostly sociocultural. In a region or country where most of the people have the same cultural background, religious thought, social position and access to the basic needs of life and education, you will hardly see any crime, any violence.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/18/gun-ownership-gun-deaths-study

See here the gun politics of Iceland:

Iceland
A license is required to own or possess firearms. National government safety course required before applying for a license. Special license required to own pistols. Pistols may only be used for target shooting at a licensed range. Semi automatic firearms have caliber restrictions. Automatic firearms not permitted.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overview_of_gun_laws_by_nation#Iceland

Much more restricted than in the US, and yet:

It kind of is /pol/ the book, doesn't make it wrong, however. The book is quite prophetic about Trump and other things IMO.

On your other question, there might be some terms about American politics thrown around, but it isn't terribly involved. It is written for the masses, and you would understand it (this goes for other aspects of the book as well, still provides great evidence).

All in all, even if you don't agree with most of the ideas, if you want to, read it. You won't regret it.
