By comparing them to those to the south of them?
I cannot argue with that. So, let's say, "relatively level-headed" compared to the world's most violent people with indoor plumbing.
What makes you believe that?
Well, the main firearm for police is the sidearm. The weight that a suppressor adds makes the gun more difficult to handle. Granted, my only experience is with the old fashioned suppressors with the rubber grommets, but I don't think the new suppressors are that much lighter. Additional weight at the muzzle of a handgun may not matter in target shooting (my forte) but it really matters in tactical situations.
When you hear the evidence that suppressors make a weapon more accurate, it's always in reference to a stationary firing position.
Also, the new types of suppressors are much less effective in quieting a weapon. Even the volume of a suppressed weapon is enough to cause hearing damage (it's the attack portion of the envelope that causes the damage as much as it is the volume).
Of course, this is not viable so long as silencers remain regulated and taxed as heavily as they currently are in US (much more so than guns themselves).
I'm pretty sure the suppressor regulations are local, not national, by the way.
If anything, local police are too eager to go to their weapon to solve a problem as it is. I'm not sure you want to encourage more of it by making gunfire quieter.
Something like that:
Just FYI, even a single round fired causes permanent hearing damage, which is why wearing hearing protection is required on pretty much any firing range regardless of how many people are there.
They're using silencers on the firing range? What's wrong with regular ear protectors?
It would certainly be a very good thing for police to have and use silencers consistently, in light of the fact that they do occasionally use their firearms in public, and this negatively affects the health of every single person on the scene.
Yes, we have plenty of evidence that police using firearms in public negatively affects the health of people at the scene.
Especially if you happen to be of a certain shade.
But still, both of the main types of suppressors negatively affect both control of the firearm and impact on the target, and some accuracy. Why would you want police to have less control of their firearm, less stopping power, and less accuracy?
Let's not pretend that the DoD equipment being shipped to local police forces has anything to do with improving policing or protecting people's safety.
If you want real control, it's ownCloud or no cloud I think...
I've been meaning to ask someone about this. Is OwnCloud something that someone who's kind of a moron could set up on their own server? Asking for a friend.
Maybe not a moron, I mean, I've set up Apache and a media server, and I can read instructions when I'm sober. I just worry that I'll do something wrong and end up syncing my data with some Estonian hackers by mistake.
And who knows, I didnt care to read tfa, but they couldve developed a nice algorithm like that new hit show I cant remember the name of
Black Jesus?
Because the cause of most gang violence is the war on drugs. End that and the violence will plummet
I'm all for ending the war on drugs. Along with stricter gun laws, it will put a serious dent in the number of innocent people who get shot every year.
and if we don't count gangland violence
And if you don't count death, we all live forever.
Why the hell wouldn't you count "gangland" violence? We've got more people in prison than any other country in the world, so when I hear people talk about how there is really little violent crime (except for the violent crime) in the US, it's kind of a joke.
I though canadians were level headed people.
Where did you get that idea?
, or it may have been a foreign actor engaging in terrorism against the Canadian state.
Or it could have been a domestic RWNJ.
I'd like to see some examples of colonial judges enacting new laws.
Also, I'd like to point out that your response is non sequitur to the point - Constitutionally, only the legislative branch can legally create laws; the only legitimate argument would be to point out somewhere in the Constitution that says otherwise.
A womans contribution requires 9 months, during which time any distraction, disruption or stress can cause the "person creation" process to fail catastrophically.
If that were true, the human race would have become extinct long ago. Pregnant women are actually pretty robust and remain capable of just about anything (except becoming pregnant again) for the great majority of the 9 months.
At the end of the day, the problem is people like you...
That's not the best way to start a sentence in which you care to make a point.
but lose the guilt-tripping SJW faux indignation BS.
I bet you care deeply about ethics in gaming journalism.
Silencers prevent your people from going deaf.
If your officers are firing their weapons so much that it's affecting their hearing, maybe you're doing something wrong.
