Northwest Indiana News: Local cops won't miss assault weapon ban set to expire

Here's the meat of the matter on the sunset of the awful assault weapons ban: it didn't make a difference when it was in effect, and it won't make a difference when it expires. Bad guys will always find a way to get what they want, while politicians go after the gun rights of law-abiding citizens.

Why do I own an assault weapon? Because it's fun to shoot (for leisure and competition), and it makes a darned good home-protection weapon. You don't like it? Tough.
