What does the gun represent in the story?

The gun represents the destructive power of technology. The monstrous weapon of destruction cannot be destroyed and will continue to kill anything that comes close to the surface of the planet. The weapon has not been programmed to discriminate between friends and foes. Any object that transgresses the air space of the city is the target of the weapon. In some ways, the gun represents the aggressive, impulsive nature of mankind. Much like Victor Frankenstein created a monster that led to his own moral and social destruction, people created a gun that grew monstrous. As a result, the destructive forces of war are the only remnants of humanity left on this desolate planet.

Explanation:

I am assuming this is "The Gun" by Phillip K. D.? If so, this is the direct answer from Edmentum/Plato so you may want to rewrite it in your own words.

what is the question you are trying to ask here

the legal limit for the drivers who can drive after consuming any amount of alcohol is 21 years.

explanation:

on november 1, 1996, a "zero tolerance law" was put into effect in the new york state.

according to this zero tolerance law, for people under the age of 21 years, it was illegal to purchase and possess alcohol or to drive after consuming any amount of it.

also, the alcohol involvement rate for the drivers under the age of 21 was roughly twice that of elderly drivers.
