Something that America and The NRA refuse to implament despite the number of lives lost.
The NRA is too busy licking Trump's ass and giving money blowjobs to even think about gun control with their none existant brains.
Every Ignorant Fat Hick is against Gun Control.
Gun Control isn't taking guns, but its preventing the average person (and the mentally ill) from being able to perchase military guns and other military weapons.

Something that doesn't always mean taking away guns.
Gun control can mean a lot of things. It can be as simple as requiring guns that use a high-caliber ammunition to be stored in a locked safe, and it can be as complex as banning all guns. Forms of gun control also can be achieved without violating the Second Amendment. I do respect the right to keep and bear arms in the U.S, but the 2nd Amendment was written in 1791, where the deadliest guns were muskets, where the reload speed was very long because you had to ram a bullet and gunpowder down the barrel to load it.
My, how the times have changed.
In 2015, 265 kids who where holding a firearm shot someone accidentally. 83 people died as a result. A form of gun control could help fix this. 1.7 million kids live in a house where guns are stored loaded or not locked away. Requiring gun owners to remove all ammo before storing a gun, requiring some guns to be stored in a safe, and holding the owner of a gun responsible if a child is in possession of the gun(This is pretty much common sense) could reduce the number of accidental shootings in America.
Guns are also very accessible. You can buy them pretty much anywhere that isn't a convenience store, and for a cheap price. I don't see a lot of things wrong with that, but a lot of states require very little training before you're allowed to buy a gun. Some gun shows and online sellers don't even require background checks for you to purchase one. Requiring more training on handling and storing a gun and requiring background checks on every gun sale can help keep at least some guns out of the hands of potential murderers.
Gun control can be achieved without banning guns.

When someone or something controls you with subtle motion , words or, other slight influences.
Your wife really has passive control over you.
The act of controlling ones impulse to take a picture of themself.
Guy 1: Man you almost got hit by a car trying to take that selfie, you need to have some selfie control.
Guy 2: Yeah, but I looked good though.

A controlled opposition is a protest movement that is actually being led by government agents. Nearly all governments in history have employed this technique to trick and subdue their adversaries. Notably Vladimir Lenin who said ''"The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves."
Count Mirabeau was part of the controlled opposition, because although everyone thought he was supporting the revolution, in reality he supported the monarchy and was a personal friend of the king. He was a government agent.

The Best idea America never passed. Common sense legislation that has repeatedly been blocked by the terrorist organization known as the NRA (National Rifle Association), a group much worse tha their sister group, the IRA (Irish Republican Army). Simply put, Gun control is the idea that psychopaths, neo-nazis, and other quote "american boy" groups shouldn't be allowed possesion of weapons like Ausalt Rifles, Flamethrowers, RPGs, Grenades, Sub-machine guns, Mini-guns, Sniper Rifles, high capacity magazines, and other weapons that would only make sense as the possesions of someone intent on mass murder or the establishment of a para-millitary force, like the NRA and IRA. Unfortunatly, these terrorists have managed to worm their way into the American government by convincing politicians that if they vote for gun control they'll be booted out of office. This is also one of the reasons that America is a laughing stock abroad, due to our lagging mental capacity in seeing that mass shootings couldn't happen without massive access to weapons, and our obsesion with the idea that everyone is going to drag an AK-47 and full boy armor around everywhere they go, and that his behavior is in some way normal. Yes, people kill people, but gun's help them do it.
No significant examples of gun control due to the actions of the NRA, but here are some things it could have helped prevent:
THE FORT HOOD SHOOTING
THE TUSCON SHOOTING OF SENATOR GABRIEL GIFFORDS
THE AURORA MASSACRE
THE SIEK TEMPLE SHOOTING

A political issue dividing the United States for which there are two main stances.
Pro Control Stance: A necessity in a country in which the Vice President manages to shoot someone in the face, "on accident."
Anti Control Stance: Owning a gun is great way to keep overbearing government and thiefs out of your home. Unfortunately, this is entirely useless in a country in which the government has weapons far beyond the scope of any law abiding citizen.
Philosophy behind the argument: Some people argue that this could be a "hands-off" issue for our politicians. That is, people who want guns can have them, people who don't can not own one. However, the armed will always have superior influence over the peaceful. Naturally, everyone must have the ability to defend themselves equally within the law. This is why we have law enforcement officials and courts. Armed citizenship undermines legal procedure. So, the decision boils down to vigilante justice or structured justice. One is quicker yet more dangerous, one is slower yet controllable.
Solution: Take the government's weapons and give them to the citizens. That way every private citizen has the ability to bomb the crap out of people they don't like. It's the American way.
Dick Cheney doesn't favor Gun Control because then he couldn't shoot his friends in the face.
