It's not just toilet paper: People line up to buy guns, ammo over coronavirus concerns
Ralph Charette, 71, said he bought a rifle and ammunition on Saturday to protect himself and his family as a wave of coronavirus panic sweeps across the country.
Charette, a military veteran, spent $1,500 at a gun shop in Germantown, Wisconsin, after encountering aggressive shoppers and empty shelves at local grocery stores.
Now, if looters come knocking, he'll be ready, he said.
"There's so much uncertainty and paranoia but you've got to protect your own," Charette said.
Charette is among a growing tide of Americans who are going to retailers, pawnshops and online to purchase guns and ammunition in the wake of COVID-19, which had killed more than 60 people in the U.S. as of Saturday afternoon.
As hysteria surrounding the illness drives some to stockpile groceries and toilet paper in case they're quarantined, it's also causing many to worry about a shortage of gun supplies, which is driving up demand and leading to long lines at suppliers.

God Bless you... Wishing you many more years...
Trying real hard to cut back on the shellfishness.... But I just love seafood.
I did my civic duty and stayed home today due to pink eye which 1 to 3 percent of corna patients get slim chance. I've never had pink as an adult I'm about tired of it (since Friday night).........I got the most sleep I've had in years though!!! I hope it clears soon as I look like I'm on a week long bender. It seems a lot of folks are getting sick more than an average spring but how will we ever know how many get cvid with no testing.

Dont say that man, hhile you're in the "high risk" group, that risk is still only 16% based on international data. This is America, I expect it to be even less than that. Head up soldier, you got this.

Is that a thing? I’ve had very red eyes for two days and was calling it allergies.
Pink eye is going around and it's very contagious but drops aren't clearing my stuff. I think there's a chance u can come down with pink eye through any viral infection that deals with snot. Allergies, shit in my eye, covid19, I got something! Never had it as an adult though...

Sounds absolutely terrifying. Have you seen a spike in patients needing to be admitted?
I heard this today as well, wouldn’t put much stock in it yet. Also heard on the radio govt was considering doing away with payroll tax until the end of the year to help the economy rebound.
