Domains Of Gun Politics
Various domains of gun politics exist and can be classified into; international, national, state, community, individual, group, religious and corporate domains. There are highly complex political issues when domains intersect such as when a civil jurisdiction has different rights or restrictions than the national government, or if an interest group or secular organization tries to influence local government.
National gun politics usually focus on the rights, responsibilities and restrictions on the use of guns by nationally sponsored groups; the police, military, etc. Gun politics may also involve special cases, such as politics regarding the use of guns during cases of national emergency or need, civil unrest, internal wars, and rebellions. For example, an article on East Timor asserts in its headline, "Timor needs to disarm population for security" and within the article states "seizing weapons that have fallen into civilian hands is the key to lasting peace." Regardless of whether one agrees with or disagrees with that assertion, this is an issue addressing guns at the national political level.
