This Friday the 13th could be an unlucky one for gun owners, as the Mega Millions’ second-largest prize is set to be drawn. This has many gun advocates calling for the game to be banned, citing the fact that if more people had the chance to win such a large sum of money, they would be much less likely to purchase guns.
The amount up for grabs is estimated to be over $500 million, and with the cost of guns rising steadily, many gun advocates worry that this could spell disaster for the firearms industry. They argue that the money could be better spent on things like health care, education, and infrastructure, rather than being thrown away on guns.
In the wake of the recent gun violence in the country, many are calling for the Mega Millions game to be banned. They argue that if more people had the chance to win such a large sum of money, there would be less of an incentive to purchase a gun.
While the gun industry has been quick to point out that such a ban would be unconstitutional, many agree that something must be done to reduce the number of guns on the streets. Perhaps the Mega Millions drawing could be the first step in this direction.
