MSM making huge deal about assassin using a silencer

Every news report I've seen has made a huge deal of making sure they highlight the fact that the assassin of the United Healthcare CEO had a silencer on his pistol.

I'm expecting this to be used to try and crack down on them. Banning them, raising the price of the tax stamp, confiscation. :x :x

Yes BUT, the pus sy politicians that can be swayed will be, and the chances of taking silencers off the NFA will drop.

We could help by not calling them silencers, which they are not...

Correct.... However, Hiram Maxim's original patent used that name

It would be better to stop ignorance.

Or, maybe, we could get companies to change their name. Like…SilencerCo.
