From a Washington Post article on the Hearing Protection Act, which is trying to make it easier to get suppressors
>Anti-gun activists think a .22lr is a high-powered rifle
You can't make this shit up
Nice link, cumstain
Why would I link to such a shitty article? I don't want to give the Washington Post traffic.

Amen, brother.
I apologize, guys. I thought this thread would do a little better; we'd all have a good laugh at stupid libtards and maybe talk about what we can do to help this piece of legislation get passed. It would stop treating suppressors like machine guns, removing the waiting period and the $200 tax stamp. That's pretty great.

>implications
fuck them.

The article itself wasn't bad. It was about as fair as can be expected from WaPo. It has some good points, along with the not so good ones.
First, it leads with:
>The federal government has strictly limited the sale of firearm silencers for as long as James Bond and big-screen gangsters have used them to discreetly shoot enemies between the eyes.
Implying a lot of the hoo-hah has more to do with scary movie shit than real life. Also, this quote:
>They frequently point out that Britain, with some of the strictest gun laws in the world, has no restrictions on silencers for many types of firearms.
It could be better, but I think that it will turn more people to approve the HPA than oppose it.

archive that shit faggot
>meanwhile, all reasonable shooting areas within 100 miles of me have been shutdown because MUH GUNSHOTS ARE SO LOUD AND ECHO IN THE MOUNTAINS
HAVE YOUR FUCKING CAKE OR EAT IT.

No, they're accomplishing exactly what they want. Guns are loud, file noise complaints and prevent the use of suppressors = no shooting.
>>32573046
Article is a slanted empty opinion piece and constantly mentions Trump Jr supporting the HPA to dog whistle liberals to oppose it without any consideration.
WaPo has been a full blown left-wing/statist rag for awhile now that's desperately trying to reclaim its glory days of breaking watergate.

Some pellet guns are pretty loud.

There are millions of shooters in the US w/experience, training. But using *facts* would weaken their anti gun arguments.
