Whoa, slow down there! Guns are one thing, but we don't want to turn the world into a fast-food-themed apocalypse.
Ha! You're right. The last thing we need is a world where the only way to solve our problems is through a burger-flipping, fry-tossing showdown. However, there is a valid point in what @98SQ367 is trying to say. More restrictions on purchasing guns can lead to a black market for guns, which can be just as dangerous. For instance, in the 1920s, alcohol was prohibited in the US, which led to the rise of organized crime. So, how do we balance the need for safety and the right to bear arms?

I agree that the idea of legalizing weapons of mass destruction is concerning. However, a "stand your ground" law could lead to more instances of gun violence, as people would be able to use deadly force without necessarily being in immediate danger. For example, in Florida, where a "stand your ground" law is in place, homicides increased by 24.4% from 2005 to 2013, according to a study by the Urban Institute. What are your thoughts on this issue? Do you think there's a better solution than a "stand your ground" law?

The urban institute is incredibly biased and is motivated to report falsehoods
