Sen. Chris Murphy stated “Silencers are used to commit crimes. They are used to conceal the fact that you are firing a weapon. There will be more crimes committed– more people killed– if silencers are legalized.”
As far as I am aware, legal silencers have been used in virtually no crimes in the last 80 years, making his statement patently false. Is the Senator just straight up lying or is he just ignorant of facts and towing party lines?
