This makes no sense. Almost no crime is committed with suppressors.
Can anyone think of any reason why a bill like this would be proposed other than animosity to gun owners?

Because they look scary in the movies.

...and movies never exaggerate anything. Including the ability of a suppressor to 'silence' gun fire.

How is it that liberals want us to be more like Europe, except when it comes to something like suppressors, which many countries encourage their use?

Nope. But that seems to be reason enough, as evidenced by Biden's recent executive actions, and efforts to ban scary rifles.

Wow I have seen some videos that they are using suppressors and while it lowers the decibels it does not make the gun a silent like do in the movies which is such a farce. The sound is still quite loud.
