“At the end of the day, if you can hear a weapon, you just might save a life,” the senator said at a press conference in Trenton.

Another person who thinks he can convince us silencers make handguns quiet.

Quote:

Silencers are already banned in New Jersey, but Menendez wants to ensure all Americans are safe with his “Help Empowered Americans Respond Act” – or H.E.A.R. Act.

Silencers are legal in all states. NJ is one of the nine states that requires a license to own them. The ATF will issue a license to anyone who can own a gun, is 21 years or older and fills out the application correctly.
I can't find anything on the bill at the senate homepage, but I'm sure if will not look any better than it does here.

Quote:

The proposed measure would open a 90-day buyback window for the estimated 1.5 million registered silencers in the country.

Buying back firearms at pennies on the dollar is still a violation of our civil rights. I doubt we will get a refund on the tax stamps.
