Democrats introduce legislation to ban gun silencers

[herrwalther]

I can only recall one mass shooting where the offender used a suppressor, the 2019 Virginia beach shooting. Once again, antis are going after a legal accessory non issue to make it look like they are doing something. I would say I am surprised but...I'm not.

 

[Mr. Mosin]

I get your pointments but is a bad analogy.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is requiring that new electric vehicles emit an audible sound when traveling at less than 19 mph because silent cars are killing people in parking lots (said tongue in cheek)

I get that too.

However, if we dont, what will prompt them to change their mind and get real facts instead of emotional nonesense facts from msm?

I REFUSE!!!

Yes, I refuse to disengage the other side and will continue to try to educate with facts to sway thier emotional misinformed opinion.


Empathy over sympathy. If you engageand actually listen and try to understand... empathy over sympathy. If youre empathic and present facts, you'll be more effective than if you are just sympathetic spewing facts that don't resonate.

I feel that if we give up trying to get more on our side through empathy and thoughtful conversation appealing to thier emotion with facts then we have surrendered.

I refuse to surrender by giving up engagement.

Like the lottery, if you don't play, you can't win.


Emphasis added below.

Silent cars aren't killing people- a complete and total lack of situational awareness is killing people. Put the blasted phone up just for a minute, Lord.

Did you miss this part of my post you quoted or did it just over your head?

I'll make it bold this time for you.

because silent cars are killing people in parking lots (said tongue in cheek)

You kind of proved my point about needing to understand

Democrats introduce more “gun” legislation.....

Well, ok.

Now that the word “crisis” was mistakenly used by our President, what will they introduce tomorrow to attempt to Distract people— yet again — from the Border Crisis?

 

[Phaedrus/69]

Wasn't the "border crisis" ginned up as a distraction itself? I still don't see a realistic path for this legislation.

 

[old lady new shooter]

NRA should make a video shooting an unsuppressed gun followed by shooting the same gun suppressed. Make it short and sweet and run it everywhere.

We seem to have wandered off topic so let's call it a day.
