Outlaw weapons of war may not sound like an _alternative_ to guns, but, it might really be an alternative to stopping gun violence in public places. If you find yourself in a situation where you need a military grade weapon to protect your self from giant cocaine enhanced angry bears then this _might_ be a decent reason to own and have ready a machine that is designed to cut down a tree. And I don’t mean a chainsaw. That is a whole other movie.
Assault weapon bans have been proven to be effective.
We did it in 1994 and death by guns went down in the United States. see: https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/assault-weapons-ban-summary

On May 7th 1967, The band Pearls Before Swine begin recording an album called ‘One Nation Underground’. The LP included a song called ‘Miss Morse’, which would later be banned in New York when it was discovered that lead singer Tom Rapp was dropping the F bomb in Morse code. After disc jockey Murray The K played the record on the air, local Boy Scouts correctly interpreted the chorus and phoned in a complaint.
