Color us shocked. The Michigan State University shooter, 43-year-old Anthony McRae, has a history of weapons … and not in a good way. Seems he has been arrested in the past for breaking gun laws.
And, if those precious gun laws actually worked, McRae would never have been able to get a gun in the first place.
Yet here we are, another horrific shooting and the Left is still screeching about the damn GUN.

From Detroit News:
State officials Tuesday identified 43-year-old convicted felon Anthony McRae as the attacker who shot and killed three people and wounded five others at Michigan State University
McRae has a history with firearms.
He was sentenced to 18 months in state prison in November 2019 after being convicted of possessing a loaded firearm in a vehicle. He was released from supervision in May 2021.
McRae should never have been FREE in the first place.**
Look at all those gun laws Democrats LOVE to pretend make a difference NOT making a damn bit of difference.
Over/under on how quickly this story disappears?
The MSU mass shooter yesterday who killed three people and injured five others before killing himself is identified as 43-year-old convicted felon Anthony McRae. He committed the shootings, not with a rifle, but a pistol he was illegally possessing. This will disappear fast. pic.twitter.com/VWCOvI8yUb

Oh. He was a convicted felon. Completely prohibited from possessing a firearm. Welp guess that means that we should disarm the law abiding and make it even harder for people to defend themselves.https://t.co/6B4oZ80cPQ

MSU shooter Anthony McRae a convicted felon with weapons history
So felon with a gun – as soon as he touches a gun it's a crime https://t.co/jBEyoNrlZR— Frank James (@FrankJa33010918) February 14, 2023
But but but … another gun law will totally fix it!
If we take guns from law-abiding citizens who obey the thousands and thousands of gun laws already on the books … that will totally fix it!
When will the Left wake TF up?!
**Editor’s note: We removed ‘convicted felon’ from our headline and body because we have learned McRae struck a ‘deal’ for a lesser charge. He still served time for weapons and we are covering the prosecutor who let him ‘free’ in another piece. Note, this does not change anything about the laws failing this community. – sj
