[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 149275, member: 3373"] As I stated earlier, I don't have a problem with suppressors. They do what they are designed to do, reduce the noise of the gun. The point I was trying to make is the hearing protection angle. The average citizen who is not a gun owner or shooter, I'm thinking, really has no interest in your hearing. Gun haters would prefer that you go deaf, or more precisely, hope that you shoot yourself. I'm thinking that a more realistic approach is to show the non-gun owner where they would benefit from suppressors. Gun ranges wouldn't bother them as they wouldn't hear the shooting. In cities where Canada Geese are becoming a problem, perhaps shooting would be allowed closer to a housing development if you weren't waking the residents up at 6am. Find a way to show how suppressors benefit everyone. I agree with all the benefits to you and me, I'm thinking of finding a way for Joe Blow citizen to see the advantage to him. You cannot argue that facts are usually not very important to some people it's the perception that they believe. If they perceive that suppressors are a benefit to them they are more likely to support a change. [/QUOTE]
