Someone Needs to Explain Why Republicans Want to Make It Easier for Murderers to Get Silencers for Their Guns



The Party of  a Criminal President Wants to Help Their Criminal Friends??

Most of us miss the piece in the Constitution that says people who buy handguns to kill other people also have a right to buy a silencer for that gun. But apparently that's what Republicans believe.


The Duncan legislation includes language revising federal regulations on silencers, which currently have tougher purchasing requirements than guns. Democrats contend that Duncan’s bill would make it possible to obtain a silencer without going through a background check, although Republicans insist that’s not true.

But wait, there's more!!!

Another provision makes it more difficult for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to classify certain ammunition as “armor piercing.” Regulations on interstate transportation of weapons would be revised as well.

Gosh that makes sense, if you want more police killed of course.

But we know one thing the GOP believes in is federalism, letting states decide for themselves what to do. That's why the current health care disaster has Republican support, it turns everything over to the states. Of course there is this

Another measure allowing concealed carry permit holders to take their weapons to other states is also expected to move through the House Judiciary Committee and onto the floor this fall, possibly in October, according to GOP lawmakers and aides.


This of course obliterates state sovereignty, but what the heck.
