Hendrix said his Aug. 5 order would take effect in seven days unless the government appealed. There was no sign of a filing Wednesday in online entries at Hendrix’s court or the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

The government’s refusal to pursue an immediate appeal “is a failure to defend public safety,” said Emma Brown, executive director at Giffords, the gun violence prevention group.

An email Thursday seeking comment from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which enforces the law, was not immediately answered. Under court procedure, the government still could file an appeal in the weeks ahead, even while Hendrix’s order stands.

Gun Owners of America said two members acquired suppressors at Silencer Shop in Leander, Texas, without having to register.

“Our members are putting the historic victory into action. The era of federal registration for constitutionally protected arms must end,” said Erich Pratt, the group’s senior vice president.

The National Firearms Act has been around since 1934 in response to concerns about mafia violence. It regulates firearms that are considered the most dangerous, though gun-rights advocates say it conflicts with the Constitution’s Second Amendment.

“The system of regulating these weapons has been effective. The need is no less today than it was after the Prohibition era almost a century ago,” said Giffords chief counsel Adam Skaggs.

Why is it always Republicans who are coming for our guns? Are voters that fucking stupid?

This 100%.

Why the absolute fuck would you want silencers to be legal? What possible benefit does that have?

theyre legal in most of europe. its for hearing protection and noise pollution. hell i hear its illegal in many locales to hunt WITHOUT one over there

Not blowing out your ear drums in a home-defense situation?

>>1530298
so banning silencers saves Americans from wasting money on something they'll never need?

>>1530299
Shitty bait, but I'll take it anyways.
1) Depending on which stat you use there's between half a million and over a million self-defense shootings each year.
2) Silencers weren't banned.
3) Explain to me how Americans are saving money by paying an arbitrary $200 tax. Especially when $200 was the price of a good car back in the 1930s when the law went into effect.

>>1530300
you didn't disagree with me?
I'll accept your concession

>>1530299
So does banning porno.

>>1530264
It never did anything except give them a gacha to arrest people for converting a long rifle into a short rifle (but not for having an identical short rifle which was created short in the first place).

>>1530303
porno is free, and americans hate moralfaggotry more than porno anyway

>>1530323
Since when has America hated moralfaggotry? Everything the conservative base does is to fucking take away people's freedom to live outside of a narrow range of acceptable christofascist behavior?
Also, porn isn't free, you just don't pay for it because you don't care if porn actors are trafficked or abused.

>>1530326

Yawn.

Do you know there are literally doctors who have PTSD from COVID, who have talked about having to make agonizing triage decisions during the massive strain it placed on our healthcare system? And it wasn't just about COVID deaths. Severe COVID patients could require prolonged ICU stays, mechanical ventilation, and around-the-clock care, consuming resources that were simultaneously needed by patients with heart attacks, strokes, trauma, cancer, and every other medical emergency.
Of course you don't, because you're a fucking moron who doesn't know your ass from your elbow. You fucking dipshits love to talk about how 'benign' COVID was because you're only capable of considering one variable at a time.
You literally cannot debate anything but the weakest possible strawman, and you constantly resort to whataboutism to avoid addressing the thing you're actually being criticized for. You should consider suicide.

Antivaxxtards will never do the math. Just ask 1.3 million contraritards who thought their so-called 'opinions' were better than those who simply did the sane thing and were vaccinated a few years ago, and are still alive to this day: including Arnold Schwarzenegger, who made a video of he approaching a drive-through vaccination facility and said 'Come with me if you want to live'.
But then, if you want to ask those 1.3 million contraritards, you'd need a medium

All of those deaths were by covid. Arnold Schwarzenegger - while approaching a drive-through vaccination facility in his vehicle - runs over contraritards' wrong opinions. Deliberately.

>>1530404
>Not true. Everyone cares, but in a pandemic the olds and the gays (HIV) are the first to go.
Really because you seem to love downplaying covid as "well basically everyone above that age is expendable anyways".

Also wtf is this "gays go first" bullshit? There's literally exactly one pandemic where that was the case and that was purely by luck that HIV spread into the homosexual community instead of the heterosexual community. Nothing about HIV specifically targets gay sex.

>HIV only affects gays
Charlie Sheen would like a word with you about that.

>>1530407
>Those full morgues and emergency rooms were just... idk roleplay or something

>>1530417
The deaths were debatable, as explained here:

Emergency rooms weren't full. ICU beds were. With an under 10 ICU beds in a hospital, that was a bogus metric.

And having under 10 ICU beds and citing using a vague metric like, "ICU beds are filling up" is ridiculous. That could be 3 as ICUs aren't usually very populated.
Again, bogus metric.

>>1530430
lol NTA, but I remember the whole panic about covid deaths at the hospitals in Phoenix, them being completely overwhelmed, there's body bags in the parking lots, etc. ... so then we drove up to the Mayo clinic only to find completely empty parking lots. No body bags, no refrigerated trucks, and hardly anyone in the lobbies once you got past all the checkpoints. You guys really over-hyped how bad it was. As far as the valley was concerned, the worst part of covid were all the crazy loops we had to jump through - lines to get toilet paper, restaurant tables setting up outside with social distancing, having to wear a mask inside a crowded supermarket but can't have an open bar anywhere - that did more damage than the actual virus.

The pandemic wasn't nearly as bad as you hyped it up to be. Part of me wishes it was, at least that would've justified fucking up all of our lives for. Protip: if you're making exceptions for BLM rioters, then the pandemic isn't that dangerous.

You were a spoiled child who was more concerned about having to go sit outside when going out for dinner than the thousands of people dying in the hospital down the street. Maybe you were lucky enough not to lose someone but there's millions of families across the US who can't say the same.

Lol sure. It's also simply by luck that it continues to be a gay disease in the west.

Not true. Anal sex has a vastly higher risk of transmission than vaginal.
Also, God hates fags. Westborough bros knew before I accepted it as a fact.
Update your info or you'll risk looking like a retarded fagtivist.

>>1530443
>Why aren't they usually full then anon?
I don't recall anyone saying ICU beds were full. I recall hearing weekly how they were "filling up".
And you're missing the point, which is that ICU beds "filling up" is a pointless metric not backed by any hard numbers.
>Millions died and you retards try to memory hole it because you didn't like how inconvenienced you were. Fucking child behavior.
The ones expect to die died (55+) and there was no reason to lock down anyone or make everyone wear an ineffective mask.
The idea that a mask will make you safe and locking down probably cost more lives that warning about the dangers to immuno-compromised people and older individuals. I don't recall too much direction to those most at risk to be honest. The focus was more on attacking everyone with bullshit "science" that had no basis in reality.

Genuinely this might just be the most retarded thing anyone has said about covid

Why the fuck would you know, do you do logistics for a hospital? You realize that's a fucking weird thing to say, dismissing something that was happening all across the country and globe because of your personal experience. Flat-earth tier argument.
>The ICUs weren't literally full! The beds weren't literally at capacity. Where? I don't know, I'm a vague faggot, but twust me bwo!
Oh, cool. So the ICU not being literally full means that if there are way more people being admitted than usual, there's no strain on the Healthcare system. I mean, doctors and nurses don't fucking heal people, are you fucking stupid? It's the fucking ICU beds that heal people and we had enough of those!
>That's fucking retarded.
I fucking know, that's my point; and so are you!
>only 55+ year olds would die.
FROM COVID you dumb fuck, how many people died from not being treated from other conditions because of the strain on the Healthcare system?
>A mask will make you safe.
Masks aren't to keep you safe they're to keep you from breathing on other people and spreading your germs, the masks were there to keep other people safe from you you stupid fuck. We were a shield wall, each of us protecting the people next to us. You're like that stupid deformed faggot from 300, except you're way dumber and uglier. Just as much of a treasonous faggot though.

>>1530295
>why silencer
A thousand reasons and no reason to ban them.

>>1530481
So he's simultaneously complaining lockdowns were too restrictive and covid didn't really kill that many people while also saying masks didn't work and that it killed people that they were told to wear them as a preventative measure?

We call that a spoiled hypocrite where I'm from.

>>1530501
They know this anon, and they know they would get absolutely wrecked if they tried to defend such a ban, which is why they've spent the entire thread arguing about COVID.

It's a typical response to a topic you can't win: just move the goalposts to something completely unrelated.

>>1530516
>That's why THEY moved the goalposts to covid.
First, moving the goalposts isn't the same as changing the subject. Moving the goalpost requires you specifically not to change the subject. If I said 'banning silencers reduces firearm deaths by 100% and you showed me that it doesn't and I said "silencer bans reduce firearms deaths by over 50%" then that is moving the goalposts. You make a claim. You walk back from that claim.
Second,you conservative fucking retards are literally the ones who started bringing up covid to deflect, so what the fuck does that say about your retarded ass?
Finally, there is no good reason to ban silencers. I am on the left politically. I own guns. These laws are fucking stupid sensationalist bullshit. I can call out when my representative make objectively stupid decisions on bad or no information; can you? (Spoiler, you fucking can't, whatever daddy says goes for you monosyllabic simpletons.)

>>1530524
>First, moving the goalposts isn't the same as changing the subject.
Whatever faggot. Split hairs and call it whatever you want.

>Second,you conservative fucking retards are literally the ones who started bringing up covid to deflect,
You know there's more than one person in this thread, right? I've never brought up COVID once here.

>I am on the left politically. I own guns.
And you keep voting for the fucking people who want to ban them. Which is why I will never in my entire motherfucking life vote for a democrat. Your party is basically forcing us to vote for Trump.
> I can call out when my representative make objectively stupid decisions on bad or no information; can you?
Sure. Invading Iraq was just as retarded as starting a war with Iran. The Patriot act was as much of a violation of our rights (if not more) than the current age verification bullshit they're pushing on the internet. I could go on, but this thread has been derailed enough.

>(Spoiler, you fucking can't,
I just did, you dirty African. Now can we talk about the NFA for once or is that asking too much?

Thus my point that the vague status of "ICU beds filling up" is a bogus metric. Glad we agree.
>FROM COVID you dumb fuck, how many people died from not being treated from other conditions because of the strain on the Healthcare system?
0 most likely.
>Masks aren't to keep you safe they're to keep you from breathing on other people and spreading your germs, the masks were there to keep other people safe from you you stupid fuck.
But it was proven the general masks weren't very effective and that's aside from the actual point.

And you didn't even bring up the first point, where they just completely ignore that the ICU having empty beds doesn't mean the hospital isn't at capacity, that just because they have beds doesn't mean they have the staff to treat the patients in them, but they're literally too stupid to engage with anything that isn't the dumbest and most reductive version of a strawman.

No king shrimp dick, they don't say that insanity is doing the same thing expecting different results. I mean cliche retards do, but any fuckwit with two neurons to scrape together understands that makes no sense. Insanity is mental illness.
