What do you think of the expiration of the national ban on assault weapons?

"There is no need for people to own AK-47's, Uzis, TEC-9's, etc. These weapons are not needed for self-defense, and they threaten the safety of the American public." -Caroline Bishop is a senior in SPA.
"I think it's horrible that the ban was lifted and assault weapons are allowed on the streets." -Cyler Pennington is a sophomore in SPA.
"Guns don't kill people, people do. ... I don't think any law will stop murder or crime, and the issue of the ban isn't what this should be about." -Alyse Zadalis is a freshman in SIS.
"It is very unfortunate that lobbyists can influence political figures to a point where violence prevention is marginalized. Bring the ban back!" -Joe McGauley is a freshman in SIS.
