Well, I'll speak for myself here (and not on anyone else's behalf). This one issue is a big deal, but not quite big enough to throw the baby out with the bath water, at least not yet anyway. As it stands right now, there is no better viable alternatives (as shitty as that is); any alternatives which do exist are so vile, corrupt and toxic that they violate practically every principle I stand for, and this is just one. When there's a viable alternative (from a viable party), I might get there, to giving the big middle finger to the republicans, but not just yet. Again though, this is by no means a trivial issue.
Both sides of the aisle have issues, and both sides play bureaucratic 'games' which make me ill. I don't like any of it, but I like the democrats and current round of the independents (who are cut from the same cloth really) far, far, less than the 'other guys'. Yes, they ALL lie, but the democrat's whole foundation is built on lies and deception. The republicans are no heroes in my mind either, but they're a 'little' better, and at least I don't have the overwhelming urge to immediately start breaking shit when the republicans speak, like I do with the democrats. Every single word out of their vile pie hole's is completely objectionable and I've gotten to the point where I can't even listen/watch an entire sentence come out of their head's without wanting to throw the TV out the window, drag it behind my truck down the road and back, and then light it on fire. I don't actually do this, but I want to.
Again, although a big issue indeed, suppressor legalization alone is not the hill I choose to die on. A nationwide restriction on "assault weapons and hi-cap mags, like this F'ing State just allowed the corrupt governor to get away with, might cause it, but not suppressors alone. Yes, it's illegal, and yes, it's unconstitutional, and categorically unacceptable, but every single agenda item the dems have is 5x more objectionable to me.
Honestly, I'm thoroughly sick of ALL politicians, but I still need to vote for 'some' of even the most remotely agreeable representation and not just blindly sign up for destruction of this nation (which I will NOT do!), which is a bigger requirement for me.
Just my .02 though.
