    Nationally, Clements believes one positive step would be to require gun owners to register their guns. “We also need to have much more proactive mechanisms to ensure the police keep guns out of the hands of those who might use them for nefarious purposes. Police also need to be more vigilant in ensuring that weapons do not fall into the hands of those with protection orders against them. For example, in the recent Saint Leonard’s shootings, Livingstone had a protection order against him and shouldn’t have had access to guns. There should have been much closer monitoring of their availability for him.” My

    My question is how registration would theoretically prevent and unhinged individual from shooting people? Will they say, before shooting people, then blowing their brains out, "I better not do this because they know I have this"? In the case pointed out above, the gun was stolen, and easily traced back to the owner, without registration. I doubt he would have taken it in to get registered before he went to kill his kids. So the good professor is talking absolute shit. No surprises, it's his profession after all.

    In terms of what the University could do, Clements believes actively declaring the Campus gun-free would be a step in the right direction: “Just like a smoke-free environment I think it would be good for the University to declare this a gun-free environment.

    This comment would be hilarious if the subject matter wasn't so grave. How many gun free zones in the USA have been shot up? I don't even really know what to say to this idiocy. It offends me that this "man" actually gets paid to be some kind of teacher. He just sounds like a butt hurt beta male. The left wing is a very bizarre place.

    What kind of bizarre fantasy world is he living in that declaring Otago Uni "gun-free" would make any difference to anything? Nobody wanders around the campus carrying a gun anyway.

    What you are really commenting on is the likes of Clements who sit out on one of the extremes IMHO. They exist on both sides and both want to influence/control the moderate majority for their own ends.

    how ironic given your mission statement at the bottom -as far Im aware in 6+decades in this wart on the arse of the planet earth labelled New zealand ,the elected administration -to wit the government were for ALL no just MY. if you did not vote for them -a consideration based on your declaring your left wing opining then your use of the adjective MY is pure hyperbole and a myth!

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
