gun control

Regulations about who is allowed to own guns and under what conditions, much like how motorists, business owners, and government officials are bound by special rules. Anyone who believes that kids shall not own guns, that anyone who owns a firearm has to register the weapon, and in penalties for reckless trigger-happy individuals is in favor of gun control. It may very well be more popular with liberals, but in fact millions of conservatives agree with the need for some form of restraint, that guns should be harder to purchase than candy bars or clothing. People who claim to be against "gun control" may very well support the legislation but fight it just to protest the idea of government limiting personal freedom.
Advocating for gun control does not require one to call for a complete prohibition on firearm ownership, just for rules about guns that force owners to be wise and responsible.

Institutional Control

Idea of controlling a situation and keeping things under proper order and control. THIS TYPE OF CONTROL IS COMPLETELY NONEXISTENT AT THE AVE. The Ave will be completely out of control and be a circus with niggas acting like fucking elephants. An avetard will also always talk about how he's the leader of the apartment and act like he's all about that but when the time comes, he's nowhere to be found because he ain't built for that.
The Ave has no institutional control at the apartments because an avetard is never ready for any type of responsibility, and it's possible he might let the place burn down.

Movement Control Order

Movement Control Order (MCO), also known as Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) in Malay, was a lockdown order during the premiership of Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin (2020-2021). The main purpose of this order is to curve the COVID-19 pandemic. This policy was successful, as Malaysia successfully overcame the pandemic.
A: Was Movement Control Order (MCO) successful?
B: Definitely! Without MCO, the pandemic wouldn't end.

Gun Control

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.

gun control

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.
