Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY) rammed a searing hot poker right into the collective eye of gun owners with her vow to squelch efforts to enact the much anticipated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/hearing-protection-act-introduced\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-york-senator-vowed-kill-hearing-protection-act\" title=\"This New York Senator Has Vowed to Kill the Hearing Protection Act\">Hearing Protection Act (HPA)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The HPA would remove suppressors from the National Firearms Act, thus streamlining the buying process while also making them more affordable. HPA would mean no CLEO sign-off (for state\u2019s that require it), no registration, no paperwork, no $200 tax stamp. \u00a0Versions of HPA have been introduced in both the House and Senate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLaw enforcement already has a hard enough job putting their lives on the line every day to stop gun violence in our communities,\u201d said Sen. Gillibrand in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gillibrand.senate.gov\/newsroom\/press\/release\/senator-gillibrand-vows-to-stop-congressional-effort-currently-underway-to-make-it-easier-for-criminals-to-obtain-gun-silencers\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-york-senator-vowed-kill-hearing-protection-act\" title=\"This New York Senator Has Vowed to Kill the Hearing Protection Act\">a statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe can\u2019t make it more dangerous and more difficult by making it easier for criminals to obtain deadly gun silencers,\u201d continued Gillibrand. \u201cThese deadly gun silencers pose a huge risk to our enforcement and our communities and I will do everything I can to stop this ill-thought-out legislation that would allow more criminals to get their hands on these dangerous weapons.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gillibrand is joined by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, who also touted the putative dangers of suppressors \u2014 despite the fact that they\u2019re outlawed in the Empire State and would remain so even if HPA were to be signed into law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGang takedowns and innovative technology have been critical to the NYPD&#8217;s efforts to seize guns off our streets and drive violent crime to historic lows. Dangerous gun silencers stymie these effective tactics,\u201d said Mayor de Blasio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need stricter gun laws, not a rollback to the lax laws of the bad old days,\u201d said de Blasio. \u201cI stand with Senator Gillibrand, law enforcement officials and gun violence prevention advocates in keeping gun silencers out of the hands of criminals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fear-mongering is in overdrive with these two! Both Gillibrand and de Blasio are talking outta their butts (&#8220;<em>deadly<\/em> gun silencers,&#8221; give me\u00a0a break! \u00a0There&#8217;s nothing lethal about a suppressor!). Suppressors are rarely used in crimes. Maybe 30-40 cases a year out of 75-80,000 federal criminal prosecutions, according to a study by the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=1&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjD3t6Rm9bSAhUPySYKHR9zB80QFggcMAA&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.westerncriminology.org%2Fdocuments%2FWCR%2Fv08n2%2Fclark.pdf&amp;usg=AFQjCNGK-VmmJEMvAV_VChSgSlBAOBsTNg&amp;sig2=eFf_-bctATmmNYBv6Q3fAw\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-york-senator-vowed-kill-hearing-protection-act\" title=\"This New York Senator Has Vowed to Kill the Hearing Protection Act\"> Western Criminology Review.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the suggestion that technology that triangulates gunfire, i.e. Shot Spotter, in urban areas would be neutralized by the use of suppressors is unfounded. In fact, one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shotspotter.com\/news\/article\/minnesota-lawmakers-advance-suppressor-measure-despite-gun-control-outcry\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-york-senator-vowed-kill-hearing-protection-act\" title=\"This New York Senator Has Vowed to Kill the Hearing Protection Act\">article syndicated by Shot Spotter<\/a>, states clearly that so long as the sound signature of suppressed gunfire is entered into the scanner database, the technology should work just fine.<\/p>\n<p>Just as those who cried that the sky would fall with the expansion of concealed carry laws were wrong, Gillibrand and de Blasio are wrong for arguing that widespread suppressor use poses a threat to public safety. There\u2019s no evidence to suggest that\u2019s the case.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Can you imagine if we allowed a criminal with a gun in New York City to attach a silencer to their weapon?

There is proof that suppressors actually benefit the public by reducing noise pollution.

Additionally, suppressors also mitigate recoil and prevent hearing damage, another win for the millions of lawful Americans who exercise their right to keep and bear arms<\/p>\n<p>Gillibrand\u2019s vow to stop HPA is, therefore, nothing more than a political stunt to appease the anti-gun lobby.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe can\u2019t make it more dangerous and more difficult by making it easier for criminals to obtain deadly gun silencers,\u201d continued Gillibrand. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":39743,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_specdata_upc":"","_specdata_placement":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7,25,216],"tags":[132,607,122],"featured":[],"hunt365":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-71472","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gunsamerica-authors","8":"category-current-events","9":"category-s-h-blannelberry","10":"tag-buzz","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-r2kba"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>This New York Senator Has Vowed to Kill the Hearing Protection Act<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"\u201cWe can\u2019t make it more dangerous and more difficult by making it easier for criminals to obtain deadly gun silencers,\u201d continued Gillibrand.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/new-york-senator-vowed-kill-hearing-protection-act\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"This New York Senator Has Vowed to Kill the Hearing Protection Act\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\u201cWe can\u2019t make it more dangerous and more difficult by making it easier for criminals to obtain deadly gun silencers,\u201d continued Gillibrand.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/new-york-senator-vowed-kill-hearing-protection-act\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Gun Reviews and News | GunsAmerica.com\/Digest\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/gunsamerica\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2017-03-14T14:40:59+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-08-18T21:00:59+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Gillibrand.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"S.H.
