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.

Exodus threads?
Already been posted countless times.
Almost nobody leaves.
Really makes me think people ITT not saging are feds or bots.

And this is the issue.
Frankly, I've started going back to 4chan. Its trash, that much is true, but its not much trashier than this place at this point, and its much faster and has way more people.
Its still trash though, so getting an exodus back there is unlikely.
That said
Every exodus thread I've ever seen posted gets dog-pilled by (1) and dones and faggots pushing various narratives about the intentions of those trying to urge an exodus aimed to imply a malicious intent.
Who do you think is behind those posts?
