OMG guess what the republicans want to legalize? Silencers for guns

http://www.military.com/daily-news/2017/01/22/silencer-business-booms-as-deregulation-bill-heads-for-debate.html

"The bill, the Hearing Protection Act of 2017, was introduced Jan. 9 by Reps. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina and John Carter of Texas, both Republicans, and has 68 sponsors in all. It would retroactively remove the $200 tax on suppressors, and remove them from regulation under the National Firearms Act, in the name of reducing shooters' hearing loss.

While a similar piece of legislation introduced in 2015 never made it out of committee, advocates say they're cautiously optimistic that the bill will pass this year"



This is beyond belief to me. These are the things assassins use .
