as black people within the USA, what do you think would happen? It's the plot of a movie I am working on.

One scenario has the gun lovers trying to kill as many black people as possible before midnight.

Another scenario has many gun lovers shooting them selves.

Another scenario has them all trying to leave the country for another country only to find that most other countries outlaw or ban guns so they end up being stuck on a ship that begins to sink because of the weight of the guns. Does anyone believe they will toss their guns overboard?

Add another scenario, I will copyright it for you.
