I'm fighting back against bills (backed by the Trump admin) that'd make it easy for criminals to buy gun silencers. nydn.us/2ngHEz3

Can you imagine if we allowed a criminal with a gun in New York City to attach a silencer to their weapon? It'd be a dangerous mistake.

When someone gets shot by a gun with a silencer, it's quiet. Witnesses might not hear. Police will be less likely to track down the shooter.

How can we end violence in our communities if criminals can get easy access to equipment that'd make it hard for police to solve gun crimes?

Let's keep our communities safe from gun violence and keep gun silencers out of the hands of criminals. I hope you'll speak out on this.

It is not quiet. They are suppressors. Think this is a misplaced focus of the U.S. gun conversation.

Oh my God, have you ever shot a gun with a suppressor equipped?? This is complete and utter sophistry. Stop it.

Perhaps you should go to the range, , and see how "quiet" it actually is. It's obvious you don't know of what you speak. #2A

If silencers are so quiet, would you let me shoot a "silenced" weapon right next to your ear?

Chances are that it wouldn't be a comfortable experience. Turns out that "silenced" weapons are hardly silent.
