    They are just plain stupid. I wish they would actually go to a gun range a listen to a suppressed firearm being shot, then maybe they would understand why we would want them & why even if criminals did use them it would not silence the firearm to that of which they see in the movies. It seems that facts don't matter when it comes to anything gun related on their part but of course I never expected them to use actual facts.

    My favorite line :

    Further proliferation of silencers would also have the commercial benefit of boosting gun sales, because most existing guns do not have the threaded barrels necessary to attach them.

    Yea if I don't have a threaded barrel on my gun, I just buy a whole new gun...

    Why don't they apply this same lunacy to assault vehicles? The crowds they plow into deserve a warning or something.

    Yep. I say vehicles need to be as loud as possible. So loud that they drown out gunshots.

    They don't wanna use facts. That's why they prefer to mislead and insist on using improper phraseology like "silencers" instead of what they actually are. Sound Suppressors.

    "Silencer" denotes absence of any sound which is simply not the case. But that's what they want people to believe.

    Car manufactures should remove mufflers on all of the vehicles, just for the children.

    Except that, ya know, the guy who invented them called them silencers. So, there's that.
