    CDC doesn't agree with you.


    I do t believe anything the CDC says and OSHA stats are continuous noises for 8 hours per day.

    Cant wait until Texas has made in Texas/used in Texas only.

    And the feds will still arrest owners and the manufacturers if they don't go through their process.


    They are now felons and SCOTUS refused to hear the case and so their convictions will stand.

    Yep, I'm familiar with the case.

    Thats when the Gov & AG of the state should have stepped in, in his defense.

    Funny how that works right. Almost like they are all working together to destroy any semblance of order in society, but God forbid you want to build your own suppressor and not pay some greasy covetous cocksuckers in washington a tax to do so.


    Probably just hoping they kill themselves with an O.D. for population control. They sure the hell don't want any resistance from an armed society. Just another reason to lock up the good guys that would put up a fight against tyranny.

    Ruby Ridge comes to mind.

    Easy way to end any resistance is to make sure everyone is doped out of their mind on pills and weed

    Weed isn't as bad as alcohol IMO. Ive seen plenty of mean drunks... not so much with stoners. Like with any vice... it's all about taking care of your priorities. I seen a sticker a long time ago.

    God made pot, man made beer ... who do you trust?

    If that was the case the use of Narcan to revive O.D.Ed junkies wouldn’t be in national use!

    the legalization of weed is about money some cockroach politicians want a piece of.


    Big Pharma, Cotton Industry, Liquor industry, Lumber industry... the list goes on & on with industries paying lobbyists to make sure weed isn't legal.

    There's a book out called THE EMPEROR WEARS NO CLOTHES that details all the products you could make from hemp, let alone the medical benefits of THC.

    Oils, paints, fuel, lumber, clothes, are just a few that the hemp industry could dominate. An acre of hemp can be harvested bi annually... try that with wood.

    ETA...
    Harry Anslinger in the 1930s was the biggest contributor for weed propaganda & making it illegal. The devils lettuce is the main cause for white woman getting raped & jazz music...not to mention... YOU'LL GO INSANE if you smoke it.

    Back in the 1800's it used to be illegal not to grow hemp, it helped cloth soldiers, made sails & rope for the sailing ships of the time.

    1. Yes.......
    2. Neighbors never hear a thing......
    3. Only .22 cans with subsonics are movie quiet.........

    The only thing a stoner ever wanted to kill is a bag of chips...

    The only downsides I can see is having to divert money from buying more ammo and such to the suppressor fund and if you were so inclined to move to a less free state you might have to store them while you are there. Other than that I don't see any downside. They have made all of my rifles much more pleasant to shoot. I would have to double up on the hearing protection because they already ring pretty bad from my misspent youth. I have only tried my Walther PPQ with a suppressor but it was a big difference. Definitely not hearing safe BUT I was able to do away with one set of protection. Plus if you did have to use it in an emergency the damage would be less. My 9mm AR is really quiet with 147 gr subs and a 16" barrel. I have also noticed on my hunting rifles a decrease in recoil. I don't have any way to measure it but they sure seem more comfortable to shoot to me. Buy you some and don't look back.
