You seem to be uninformed of the decibel level that a "silencer" provides.
You also seem to believe that a criminal couldn't make his own silencer.

That is why I said you were uninformed.
As for your current post... You say, "What I don't expect, is for the government to allow semi-automatic weapons that can be turned into machine guns to kill as many people as possible as quickly as possible. No law can stop murder even though it is illegal, you just don't have to supply someone the means to do it on such a large scale. This is only common sense to me."
This sounds great. Until you think about it for a minute. Isn't it already illegal to convert a semi-automatic weapon to a machine gun? Will you next outlaw 3D printers and milling machines that can make the parts that allow people to make automatic weapons?
Did you forget the result of the assault weapons ban during the Clinton administration? It didn't change anything. Obama tried to do something too. It didn't go anywhere. How far do you think you'll get with Trump in office?
I know it's so terrible that you want to DO SOMETHING. But there are better places to focus the discussion. There are more lives to be saved elsewhere first.
