If you're in the vicinity, you're in the firefight whether you have a gun or not. You want the shooters to have suppressors.

I also want no shooters, and yet there are shooters. Given that there are shooters, if you don't want them to have suppressors, then you do want them to cause hearing damage to bystanders.

I don’t really believe in the concept of a considerate shooter that wants to protect my ears by using a suppressor. Maybe at a gun range, but not elsewhere.

I don't care what you do or don't believe in. At this point you're arguing just to argue.
