This is good.
I've heard some odd support reasons for the HPA. One was that it'd be better for law enforcement when they use suppressors, odd because I didn't know any law enforcement besides SWAT and police snipers that would use suppressors. Also, this would be a minute percentage of suppressor users overall.
One of the arguments that the anti-suppressor crowd uses is that hunterrs can just use earmuffs/plugs. Pro-suppressor advocates need to come out strongly and say that the reason suppressors are good for hunters is so that they don't need to wear earplugs and can hear their surroundings and hear things like deer walking in the woods or ducks calling. That's why suppressors are so good for hunters because they are not used in conjunction with ear muffs/plugs and need to be used alone so that the hunter has all of his senses at full capabilities.

Pro-gun physician group releases paper supporting suppressor use
3/29/17| by Chris Eger
Doctors for Responsible Gun Ownership this week distributed a white paper advocating access to suppressors in support of the Hearing Protection Act.
While making the case that suppressors offer significantly greater noise reduction than earplugs, the paper also counters the argument made by gun control advocates that increased use of silencers will prove dangerous in active shooter scenarios by pointing out that even muffled gunshots typically register around 120dB, or midway between the comparative sound level of a jackhammer and firecracker.
