America having more guns stores than grocery stores, McDonald’s, and Starbucks combined is further proof this nation is the greatest place on the planet.

A year ago, a study came out, which I had somehow never seen before, that shows the United States has nearly 65,000 gun dealers in America, and a combined total of around 63,000 combined Starbucks, McDonald’s and grocery stores.

People who hate guns will point to this fact, and claim that it’s proof America has a major problem with guns. They’ll argue it’s proof our streets are flooded with weapons, and we need strict gun control more than ever.

That’s laughable.

All this stat proves is America is awesome. I want to be able to grab my Big Mac, and then proceed to walk across the street to grab a new AR-15. Should I a grab a few extra magazines? That’s a stupid question. Of course I’m walking out of the store with about a dozen P-Mags.

Besides, in the event we ever get in a serious situation, I don’t think a coffee from Starbucks will do much to save me during a “Red Dawn” situation. I’d prefer to throw lead at Russian paratroopers instead of throwing a McDonald’s cheeseburger.

I’d even argue 65,000 gun dealers isn’t enough. This is America and we always take thing to the max. We shouldn’t slow down until we hit the 100,000 mark. That’s right. I want 100,000 gun dealers in America. I want a gun dealer on nearly ever corner. It’ll make gun control zealots explode, and it’ll just be really convenient.

As the saying goes, “God made man and Samuel Colt made them all equal.”

God bless this country and the Second Amendment.
