The United States
has gun control. We have hundreds and hundreds of gun regulations regarding the acquisition, storage, utilization and disposition of firearms. We have gun regulations at both the federal level and at the state level. We have laws that regulate possession and display of firearms.
What we also have is a Constitutional Right to "keep and bear arms." Our founding fathers felt this was a fundamental right of a free people.
We also have
criminals who violate our gun control laws. If we had an outright ban on possession of guns, the criminals would violate that law too.
Interestingly, the USA cities with some of the most stringent "gun control" laws are the cities with the highest violent crime rate using guns.
