Called him "brother" then dismissed him like I'm sure he'd dismiss any black man that would have the audacity to question his royal white self. How much do you hate these arrogant bastards?
I caught that! He is a racist scumbag who clearly resents being questioned by a black man!
And, he failed to answer the question truthfully. Instead he added BS about background checks which are not the same thing a registering the silencers!
Yes! Black men in general and black men who are superior intellectually, even more so.
I watched three hours of that hearing. That gentleman brought many items in the bill to light.

This is what they are, they do not need to hide it anymore, the majority is with them, there are no more consequences. These show meetings, pretending anything is discussed, will be over soon anyway. And if they don't like it, there are planes bringing them anywhere in the world.
@neguse.house.gov has been a star in this meeting. He's an incredible communicator and always has receipts. I'm not surprised the Republicans are trying to belittle him.
No one needs to post on this. If you don’t see a justification for one fine that’s your small minded view to work on. Maybe try a little factual research instead of Hollywood
What recital do you want. You have made t your mind up about something you know little about. And I guess you understood your opinion of one’s need is as meaningful as a pile of steamy dog shit. But pay more attention to dog shit so you don’t step in it. Your post is ok to stomp in
Liberals and leftists need to go out and buy all the guns they can afford. Not to use, but so the 2A nutjobs understand the implications. “You want EVERYONE to have unfettered access to guns? Coolcoolcool.” Also get trained on safe, proper use. Not “YEEHAAWWW!!!” Pew pew pew! Be disciplined.
Some days I have hope, others I feel we are doomed. I won’t give up and keep resisting, but dang. A lack of decorum and acceptance of anything but the GOP opinion is growing.
It’s posted as part of the bill markup. The ASA is posting on Reddit in realtime on the NFA sub. It’s got to pass reconciliation in the Senate so it has to be fiscal related only.
Word from a supporter is that the text was changed last minute to move silencers from the NFA to the CGA. That would regulate them like a handgun or rifle with a background check but no ATF registration.
Congressmen can represent their constituents if we make our voices loud and call every day so they know we’re not lazy and complacent. Tell them you do not accept cuts for the majority to pay more for the already obscenely wealthy!!
someone trying to avoid tinnitus? ie hearing damage from gunfire is a real thing. I have it from my time in service when hearing protection was not in vogue on shooting ranges.
Also folks who are brought in to euthanize problem predators in suburban neighborhoods , animal control etc, target ranges
These #MAGA are cartoonishly hilarious. They whine and bitch and moan about “inheritance and estate taxes” and how burdensome it is but can set up elaborate GUN TRUSTS for all their suppressors. So their 7yr olds inherit them without going through any background 😂
Isn’t it? Why do yall all sit around drinking michelob ultra talking about them? Like you’ve found the lost city of el dorado?
Yall really think Palantir doesn’t know every purchase you’ve ever made? GUN TRUSTS have to be the stupidest thing ammo humpers ever invented since “pre-ban ARs” 🙄
The GOP needs a bomb put under it…these assholes have no respect for anyone or anything, and the way that smug fucker talked to Nguse…needs the shit slapped out of him😡
Watching that rethuglikkkan, Congressman brazenly use a circa 1950s segregationist tone of disdain and dismissal to address a fellow Member was an In The Heat of the Night moment.
They do think that. Many times they mock non maga saying we are weak and won’t win a fight. I said what you said plus #FAFO. They will be in for a rude awakening
Bro IM BEGGING, BEGGING, ANY TOP in the regime to sign a waiver, or whatever other legal steps we need to go through, for a legitimate deathmatch in a cage.
Let's see who REALLY HAS THE GUTS to put it on the line for this country and people. Let's see who REALLY has conviction in the TRUTH.
How can you background check people who buy silencers if you don’t have to register that you own one? You can hear the moment he realizes how stupid it sounds when he says it out loud. Penny dropping.
Silencers can be/are optimized for different calibers and types of firearms. I don’t suppress my pistol or shotgun but my rifles and pdw are. It reduces noise and tames recoil.
They’ve been legal for decades. This just zeros out the tax. There will still be an application process and transfer rules. They sneak it in this way so it’s filibuster proof in the Senate under reconciliation. Another tax break for a specific constituency. Like no tax on tips.
So if the budget bill has non-budget items in it, it is subject to the filibuster in the Senate. Silver er regulation or legalization is non-budget item, even if it somewhere removes a tax on the devices.
What a racist asshole. I don't know how Neguse maintained his composure, except that he probably deals with this sort of racist shit ALL THE TIME on The Hill.
Tyou to @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social & every House Dem who voted AGAINST GOP adding crushing inflationary, recessionary debt to America
GOP cutting medicaid, medicare snap to make sure the billionaires get their tax cuts. With 1001 pages of ugliness, you did YOUR jobs for US.
Why is that part of a budget? That is a separate legislative piece! But more importantly, why wouldn’t you want to get rid of a requirement to register silencers unless you are a murderer?????
Lmfao the good ol "if you're innocent, you have nothing to hide"
Because they're nothing more than a hearing safety device. The only reason they're on there was to prevent blacks from owning them and the ignorance of basic physics
U guess I didn’t realize they had a health benefit. Still a stupid thing to sneak into a budget when there are so many other and might I say bigger issues.
It’s not abnormal these days for people who have several guns. They’ve become a lot more popular because reducing sound at the range or wherever people are shooting is much better for everyone’s ears and those who live near ranges. Generally people into them might have one per firearm.
1. I probably have a lot more experience with firearms then you think I do. 2. I’ve never been to a range (in multiple states) where silencers /suppression is allowed. 3. You need eyes and ears on before stepping on the range no matter what you shoot. 4. I don’t care what you think is normal.
Just an incredible exchange. No shame from the Republicans at all. Laughing about making it easier for criminals to 🔫 people quietly. Should be fine in a country with rampant gun violence and mass 🔫 nearly daily.
I have one on my rifle. It’s nice not having to worry about ear protection (as much) at the range. No one really NEEDS one, they should be registered, it's simple and already in place.
Just because you’re a white privileged racist male doesn’t mean you get to avoid the question like the fucking no king male.
You’re also an asshole like him.
These white men have zero impulse control and can’t even begin to tolerate a logical reasoned argument from a younger black man. The 2026 blue wave can’t come soon enough.
The gop robs the poor to make the rich, richer. They protect guns over our children. They protect oil/gas & factory farms over healthy air and soil. They loathe diversity. The loathe women controlling our bodies. They loathe the Constitution. Make it make sense why these bigots are in charge.
OMG silencers will no longer have to be registered. Sold just like any gun. The murder rate will skyrocket because more murderers will think they can get away with it. Holy crap.
Goddamn, calling him "brother" in the most condescending way that you could literally hear the n-word behind it. These Republicunts are disgusting creatures.
“You will have to go through the same background checks as rifles” oh good, so like basically none? Will I be able to buy them through the drive through next time I’m in Arizona? (Yeah Arizona has drove through gun stores)
Because conservative christians are a violent, blood thirsty lot who LOVE murder, violence and the fear they instill in the clean modern peoples of the world.
So Noem's fav silencer corp, Dakota Silencer, championed while she was gov of SD, not only gets to sell tax free murder weapons, but they don't have to be registered? Ftr, she said silencers are good for hunting. Mm hm, and she also said she would "hunt people down."

Do not fucking call Representative Neguse your brother. You are a racist piece of shit who needs to fuck off.
you also have no need.
Other can determine if they have a need for one or not and act accordingly
i need a tank.
Them bitches gotta a pimp.😂
trump is putin’s puppet.
Especially when they aren’t white.
We will make it VERY CLEAR JUST what we think of these CRIMINALS.
BITCH THERES A COUNTRY TO SAVE. Disgusting.
Why not just put the "no habeas corpus" bullshit in as well?
Don't they know Democrats and Independents own guns, too?
Think about it—school shooters can already have killed half the school, and the other half won’t have heard the gunshots.
Also folks who are brought in to euthanize problem predators in suburban neighborhoods , animal control etc, target ranges
It’s a stamp. A $200 stamp.
Yall really think Palantir doesn’t know every purchase you’ve ever made? GUN TRUSTS have to be the stupidest thing ammo humpers ever invented since “pre-ban ARs” 🙄
When I go to the range I use foam ear inserts, over the ear muffs and 4 of my rifles have suppressors.
It’s hearing protection from loud things.
If ya like killin you’d love this, or….. hate it.
THEY all got them; we should too.
There's a war coming.
GOP rep. He’s itching to put a hood on.

What the fuck do you have that many for? Why is that not a follow-up question?
And, quieter.
Super. Nothing of concern then! We should just accept this as normal parts of political discourse.
The tech is bad. Making guns easier to use and quieter is stupid.
Using your one signature bill to benefit companies that make guns easier to use and quieter should be called out.
And, gun culture in the US is fucking insane.
Clearly, we pay him too much if he owns TEN silencers with an ATF tax stamp going for $200 each.

May your “wishes” torrent your family.
The ease in which we can have more, uh, Mario Brothers.
If my thoughts come to fruition, it won’t just come back to bite them in the ass. Ask that Brian Thompson fellow.
🏴
He is wicked smart and they keep underestimating him. 💙
He has 10 he says...for what? What's the issue with registering it if they are such a great thing?
Thinking too, like okay so you want it to be much easier for silent assassins to run free. That might work in our favor eventually 😂
Not that I’ve seen. 🤬
Disrespectful arseholes.
And clearly he's annoyed by the nerve of the young black government member pressing him for an answer.

I am all for the 2nd amendment, but if you are using a suppressor you are hiding something.
If you need to hide the fact you fired a gun, odds are you aren't dispensing justice.
However, assassinations can very well be indirect self-defense, its just not the norm.
Silencers do not “silence” firearms— however, they muffle the sound enough as to not sound like gunfire.

we can all agree
those with too much should help
and those with less can be helped
We can see them a mile away.
