Hot Coffee should take the middle ground on the issue of guns on their premises. Similar to Starbucks, Hot Coffee should request that owners voluntarily refrain from brining weapons into their stores. This allows the organization to respect the second amendment allowing customers to have a firearm, but also helps to limit the experience of customers within their store. According to PEW research, more Americans died from gun-related injuries than on any other year on record. This period marked very high-profile deaths such as those of George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery. In these two instances white police officers, killed unarmed black men using firearms. With minority communities and society at large, these increased incidents of gun violence have created a very contentious and argumentative atmosphere. Here, many minorities, who are customers of Hot Coffee believe their needs and demands as citizens are not being met. Likewise, those who do not carry firearms and are law abiding citizens do not want to be punished for the terrible acts of a few rouge gun owners. Unfortunately these events are not rouge and instead are becoming very common place, resulting in the political and legislative upheaval current being experienced in the country today (Jones, ).
As an owner of coffee franchises, it is important for the business to not only...…views of all parties involved and therefore looks to appeal to both sides of the argument albeit to a much more limited extent. It is difficult to imagine a precipitous decline in consumer purchase volumes as a result of a political stance towards gun violence, which has little to no bearing on consumer coffee purchasing behavior. The variables that enter the consumers purchasing decision are heavily related to price, value, convenience, taste, and location. These variables ultimately determine when a customer will purchase a coffee product.

Gun Violence In December of 2012, Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT became just the most recent name to be added to the list of schools now infamous for the terrible tragedies to occur within.

Gun Violence in America There are raging political debates about gun control in America. Most poor urban cities are characterized by gun violence always attributed to gang violence. These gangs always comprise of young adults and juvenile males. Increased cases of highly organized mass killings have orchestrated gun laws, even as the scenarios become rare.

Gun Violence in Schools School violence is a dangerous happening that is transcending many schools in the world. Several occasions have been reported where children have perished or suffered traumatic experiences of gunfire and killings within schools. As many states and governments have reiterated the need to have immediate solutions to this problem, gun violence and attacks in schools is still rampant. Gun violence among adolescents in schools is dated back
In fact, the Second Amendment is a crucial constitutional clause that protects the rights of citizens to rise up against the government in extreme political situations. The Second Amendment has been taken too far out of context. Cornell (2006) states, "Ironically, the Second Amendment, does not prohibit robust gun regulation, it compels it. Without government regulation there would have been no Minuteman to muster on the town greens at Lexington

The doors were locked and visitors had to be buzzed in, but Lanza was able to overcome these barriers by shooting his way in. The guns came from her mother's house and she was later found shot dead, apparently by Lanza. After
Gun ownership is constitutionally protected in the United States, embedded in the Second Amendment to the Constitution, which reads, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed," (Bill of Rights, 1789). The interpretation of this constitutional right has become the topic of heated debate in the United States. As the Library
