GOP
leader: NRA-backed gun bill to ease regulations on silencers shelved
(Paywall)
House Republican leaders called for unity and prayer Tuesday after the deadly mass shooting in Las Vegas, but offered no new legislation to tighten gun laws and said a bill to ease regulations on gun silencers would be shelved indefinitely.
Ryan said there's no plan for the House to act soon on a National Rifle Association-backed bill to ease regulations on gun silencers.
The bill is "not scheduled right now. I don't know when it will be scheduled," Ryan said.

At
the urging of NRA
House Speaker Paul Ryan announced today
potential prey must kneel and pray.
That is, unless they
are “taking a knee”
in favor of racial equality.
Then, he said, they
should stand conspicuous
show some respect
and not be ridiculous.
