President Donald Trump said he’ll "seriously look" at banning gun silencers after last week’s mass shooting in Virginia.
“Well, I’d like to think about it," Trump said in an interview with Piers Morgan on ITV’s Good Morning Britain. “I’m going to seriously look at it."
While Trump said he didn’t "love" the idea of a ban, he also was unhappy to see the frequency and severity of mass shootings in the U.S.
Trump’s comments represent a potential crack in Republican opposition to stronger gun control measures.
They follow a shooting last week at a municipal center in Virginia Beach, Virginia, in which a gunman killed 12 people. Police recovered a high-capacity magazine and a silencer mechanism from the scene.
Virginia’s Democratic governor, Ralph Northam, said Tuesday he will summon lawmakers back to the state Capitol to consider a package of gun-control legislation. Republicans control the state’s legislature. Northam’s proposals include a ban on silencers and high-capacity magazines.
The Trump administration earlier this year banned bump stocks, devices that let a semi-automatic weapon fire like a machine gun.

And now we're right back to you ironybro posting.
<you're not listening. its not a matter of who you vote for, its a matter of the system, which is maintained as a jewish dialectic from the top down, because to even have a shot at running you need to have the support of jewish financiers who maintain the dialectic
<so you're never going to 'infiltrate' or any of that shit, you're never going to get a BASTE candidate in there - they may say all kinds of shit, but once in power, if backed by the same people all the other ones were backed by, they'll do the same shit
<you're not listening.
<no thats not what i'm saying
<no thats not what i'm saying either
<look… if people are ziomen, its better to have someone who is visibly an enemy in power rather than someone who appears to be an ally, because the enemy is obviously an enemy, while the other zioman (in this case red - or orange) will trick White people into thinking he's their friend!
<NO HES NOT!
Whats the point of even talking to you?
You're lost in the fucking dialectics again.
