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.
