Good points; I should have been more specific. Courtroom restrictions are different, and I am okay with banning firearms in specific government buildings where justified. Felons should have all their rights (including guns and voting) restored once they are no longer in prison, on probation, or on parole. Using firearms in a threatening manner should be illegal.

What I meant mainly was there should be no restrictions on the ownership or general carry of firearms that are legal anywhere in the country, on silencers, on magazine size, or on ammo. I’m okay with adding 10-20 years to prison sentences when using firearms in another crime, but not with making firearms by themselves a crime.

Gun ownership in this country is what has kept us free. There should be no question the demodummies, plus the U.N., have been so dead set on trying to eliminate our right to gun ownership. The Japanese knew that way back during WWII that we were (and still are) a strong nation when there was/is a gun behind every blade of grass. An armed society is what we must remain, we can all thank Donald Trump for helping to expand our rights to gun ownership.

I don’t really understand this issue so I am asking an honest question just to know: Why should silencers be unlimited? I’m trying to think of a legal reason for using silencers. Maybe I have watched too many crime shows.
