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.

That's a good start.
You should also consider rallying local men to your cause, local families if you can manage it. Hopefully you've got a family of your own as well - if not , try to start one.
This doesn't mean going full-militia and building a compound. You know what it means. It means being prepared. And not taking actions which act to push White people into a false sense of security on the basis of memes and irony.

Exactly.
What he's basically trying to get around to is eventually going back to the
snarkshit, because he has no spine as to recognize that his position has no teeth.
<that guy is shit though
<the system is fucked
<not if you want it to make an impact - but if you really believe in voting, here's a few options
<okay then
<vote for the non-kosher candidate
Its just going to go around and around.
Dude is lost in the dialectic so deeply he can't even conceive of the points being raised to him, and its impossible to have a conversation with someone in good faith who behaves so obviously in bad faith ("i only support him as a meme to keep clinton out" into "but let me explain why his policies which are shit are actually baste and rosepilled!").
