Discussion Notes: Mandatory Carry

This week’s story: Mandatory Carry by Caleb March 

Next week’s story: With the Beatles by Haruki Murakami 

Rated: Clean

In “Mandatory Carry” by Caleb March, every citizen must own a gun, carry it with them on all times, and intervene during crimes. Gerald, Andy and Anais discuss the social commentary and plot of the story, and how the latter carries the former — though they disagree on the motivations that drove a major plot point!
