CO: Why are Coloradans stocking up on guns during the pandemic?

On April 2, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation announced that it had received 25,468 background checks for gun sales in the previous week — a 227% increase from the same time frame in 2019.

It’s indicative of a trend as old as the United States — in times of crisis, be it financial, political, health-related or spurred by gun violence itself — Americans buy guns.
 

Comment by: PP9 (4/10/2020)
All of the crises, whether they be terrorism, crime, pandemic, economic recession, or just the election of Democrats, remind people that they are vulnerable. It's easy to be completely oblivious and to think it can't happen to you, and a lot of people trudge through life in that state. Events that prove otherwise make people realize how exposed they are, so they do what they can to mitigate it. It's not irrational like buying up massive amounts of toilet paper... the truth is that life is not safe, and a gun is a tool for coping with living in an unsafe world.
