    Working off of a tip, police stopped a person traveling by bus and recovered a suppressor and a number of false IDs, one of the officials added.

    Snitches get stitches

    But also, if this is the guy, the moment they release his name it’s gonna become memorialized

      A GoFundMe for legal defense would break the interenet, and I gotta feel like this guy knows that…

      Also, for anyone wondering why he’d ditch a gun and save a suppressor, it’s because suppressors are federally registered. In many states a gun can show up and be connected to a crime, and they can just say it was sold to someone and they do t remember/know the buyers name.

      A silencer has accountability and would need a paper trail showing a transfer of ownership.

      Edit:

      Apparently other sources say he had the fun too:

      But still, it’s crazy we dont have a federal gun registry and not all states have them either.
