Well, since we want to get all touchy about who supports gun owners and defend our crooked government, please consider that things like silencers, "black" rifles, and concealled carry have done more to degrade gun owner support than anything in recent years. I have absolutely nothing against any of them, BUT, in the non-gun owner group, which unfortunately is a big majority of the populace, they are PERCIEVED in a very negative light, hence having a very negative effect on our future right to pocess firearms. That right will soon be gone with the forthcoming communist regime that takes office in a little over 3 weeks. For clarity, while I personally have no interest in silencers, concealled carry, black rifles, or full auto firearms, I am very OPPOSED to ownership/use restrictions on any of them (except for felons, mentally unsound, etc). So, please don't accuse me of supporting the enemy. To me, when it is said that something is illegal unless you attain a special permit, it has been basically stated that said entity is illegal. That is my angle, and if you don't see it that way, so be it.
