"A new ridesharing app named Black Wolf has entered the market, aiming to compete with established players like Uber and Lyft. However, the feature that distinguishes Black Wolf from others is that "drivers of these vehicles are armed with guns." Following its launch, the app gained significant attention after going viral on Reddit over the weekend. The company has marketed the feature as "executive protection" for individuals who fear for their safety.
The founder of Black Wolf, Kerry King Brown defended this controversial decision describing it as a "necessary evil" born out of escalating concerns regarding one's safety with a never-ending wave of mass shootings and incidents of gun violence in the United States. "
