Paul Ryan Sides with Hillary: Shelves Bill to Deregulate Suppressors
Breitbart.com ^ | 10-3-2017 | AWR HAWKINS

Two days after an attacker opened fire on concert goers in Las Vegas, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc) announced he was shelving legislation to deregulate suppressors.

-snip-

Ryan has now shelved the Hearing Protection Act, which was introduced into Congress on January 9; it is the legislation containing suppressor deregulation. The Act does not legalize suppressors–as they are already legal–rather, it removes the burdensome process for acquiring them and erases the federal tax that must be paid in order to receive permission to posses one.

Maybe they should outlaw murder. Oh wait...

It’s Ryan’s MO.

He always stands courageously on all sides of any issue.

Then if one becomes a winner, just ask him, he was there all along.

What makes you think Rino Ryan would have done anything differently even if Hilliary had not even been on the planet. He doesn’t fool me for a nanosecond.

MASS MURDER MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

The timing of this mass murder was arranged for just this purpose, I believe.

“...Ryan is starting to make me miss Boehner...”

LOL..Yep. They’re identical twins, except I haven’t yet seen Ryan weeping of silly crap. Both are UniParty hacks.

“How about some horsetrading? Give up on suppressors and machine guns in turn for national reciprocity?”


NO WAY!

I would rather wait a bit longer vs. giving up on a BASIC RIGHT forever.

Whose side are you on, anyway?

Some of us don't give a crap about 'optics'. We just want the idiotic laws changed so we can better protect our hearing.

There is never going to be a "good time" to fix the law, because they will always come up with an excuse not to.

This is a non starter as far as I’m concerned. Bump stocks should be banned as well... and almost certainly will be.

This honestly was a stupid bill in the first place.

Wow. Are you sure you're at the right website?

“...The number one and two Democrats on Capital Hill today, are Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell....”
Actually, they belong the elitist GOPe arm of the UniParty. They’re anti-American political hacks, swamp creatures to say it nicely. They are there for only their own selves at the expense of the “unwashed masses” by seeing to it that Soros’ UniParty gets what it wants. They’re as evil, if not more, than odongo was.

The problem with them, is that they completely short circuit any resistance to the Left.

They are the two most important Leftists on Capital Hill.
