As someone outside of the US, news about people of the City of Corona queuing to buy guns was quite shocking. Things are difficult everywhere but a rush to buy guns, not least in the most powerful country, is probably one of the most shocking of all the responses I have read and seen so far. I hope none of those guns will need to be used. The virus is already enough of an enemy

Eh calm down people always buy guns and ammo on every crisis that happens, even after every elections. It's nothing new.

Strangely there can be a calming effect, with many people armed. Believe it or not, unscrupulous folk may hesitate to act in times of shortage if their neighbors are armed.

I’d be much more worried they’d be carrying out the looting if layoffs continue with no relief.

Again, that'd be short-lived. Literally.
