To keep the noise down in a survival situation.Say you do not want to be heard.
You’re going to be heard with a silencer or not... unless it’s a 22 then you’re not going to even be able to incapacitate someone at range.
the bill is called "the hearing protection bill", want to guess why it's being brought forth?

Its because people watch movies and think a silencer actually silences the firearm. So, politicians appease the ignorant and make money in the process.

First question is why do you need a silencer in the first place?

"Silencer's" or suppressors, why are they so hard to buy?
I would love to have the ability to purchase suppressors for some of my firearms.

Why would you want every thug, gang banger, crazy white dude, or other potential criminal, what with the (more or less) silent ease of shooting a firearm in public while using, to have easy access to silencers?

Me too. Because, why not?

I can see nanny-state types passing regulations to require all guns be silenced for hearing safety concerns and so neighbors near ranges or rural property will not subject to loud noises.
