Domains of Gun Politics - Group

Group

Groups may also have their own aspects of gun politics. Ethnic groups, clans, political parties, private clubs, independent (non-state-sanctioned) militias, gangs, and other forms of group affiliations may have politics towards guns, both in favor or against their presence or use. Groups may have special legal cases separate from those of the individual, or may have their own collective political positions, ethics and practices towards guns. For example, after a shooting incident, in July 2006, Miami Hurricanes coach Larry Coker made a policy for the team banning the ownership of guns by his players.

Famous quotes containing the word group:

    If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.
    Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)

    The boys think they can all be athletes, and the girls think they can all be singers. That’s the way to fame and success. ...as a group blacks must give up their illusions.
    Kristin Hunter (b. 1931)

    I can’t think of a single supposedly Black issue that hasn’t wasted the original Black target group and then spread like the measles to outlying white experience.
    June Jordan (b. 1936)
