Kudos to you for having common sense, but your party adamantly disagrees with you. They are no more going to support legalization of suppressors than a Saudi cleric is going to approve of Valentine's day.
Nobody is coming out in support of suppressors being classified as NFA and needing a tax stamp. Liberal or otherwise. Wasn't that the specific question of the thread? I don't think an average gun controller would know anything about a silencer. What the heck does that have to do with Valentine's Day in Saudi Arabia?

So you are telling me of someone in the senate or house tried to take them off, no one on a certain side would make up lies and fallacies?
Trust me the average gun controller are self professed experts in everything which is funny because they know less then nothing.

I really don't see the need for suppressors to be NFA items. Of course the people most ignorant of firearms and suppressors would trot out the images of "Hollywood quiet" guns and try to claim that we would have a major increase in pepole wanting to become hitmen. It would be hard to fight that imagery when the majority of people in this country have never actually heard one other than in a movie with the "pfft" sound.

Exactly, they have already passed laws against fictional guns found in movies.

Jeeez, I wish they did go pfft, I was very disappointed when I heard my first round fired through a suppressor, I was thinking that did not reduce the noise that much and I still want to keep my ear muffs on. It helps with the noise travelling as far and as loud but right next to it the sound was still plenty loud. I am sure some are better than others and in some places in Europe they are required to reduce the noise pollution but for me I do not ever see the need for one, but I also do not see why they are even regulated.

Anyone who uses "Hollywood" as a reason for any kind of law by default has already lost...
We have YouTube as way to inform people about suppressor.
