Shooting Dad by Sarah Vowell

The reading, "Shooting Dad", by Vowell is a settling dispute of prolonged political differences. Her father a gun driven republican, with the enthusiasm of heavy artillery. He's the patriotic symbol of her life, while she takes the less and more logical and reasonable rode of the democratic party. Against the beliefs of her fathers political choices, the love, the sole purpose of being excepted by the creator, the man that gave her life, she puts aside her own political guard. She chooses to be apart of her fathers live rather than vanquish it because of the virtuous differences and realizes that big oppositions carry small similarities.
