Weird But the Media Aren't Interested At All in the Michigan State Shooting, Huh?

This story is getting no coverage just 48 hours after it happened, despite the media's obsession with mass shootings.

The problems with the story are obvious: For one thing, the killer is the wrong race.

The media loves white shooters. It quickly disappears black shooters. In the media's telling, blacks can only be victims of white people or the police. They can never actually be evil criminals. That might serve to justify the police, after all!

The other reason the media is ghosting this story is, of course, that it spoils the left's "ban all the guns" agenda.

The shooter should not have had a gun -- he was arrested previously for carrying an unlicensed concealed gun, and if he had been prosecuted and convicted of that, he wouldn't have had the gun.

But the leftwing prosecutors are determined to plead down criminal to misdemeanors, which means that career criminals are technically felony-free -- at least as far as their official criminal history goes -- and thus there is no legal justification why they can't buy a gun.

This is the Democrats' agenda, and that agenda has a bodycount that gets bigger and more obscene every month that passes.

And obviously the leftwing propaganda media doesn't want to talk about that.

The father said he did not think his son would do harmful things to himself or others, noting that Anthony had no history of violence. But the suspect's father admitted that his son was caught by police carrying a concealed weapon in the past.

According to court documents, police officers in Lansing, Michigan, approached the younger McRae on June 17, 2019, as he was sitting on the back steps of a building smoking a cigarette and asked him if he had any weapons.

Anthony admitted that he had a weapon on him, and Lansing police recovered a Ruger LCP .380 semi-automatic pistol.

The younger McRae was charged with a felony for carrying a concealed weapon, which could land him five years in jail. He was also charged with a misdemeanor, possession of a loaded firearm in or upon a vehicle.

Anthony pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor charge and was sentenced to probation. He was discharged in May 2021.

...

Anthony promised to get rid of the firearm but never did, and neighbors complained multiple times that he fired shots outside of their home.

Megan Bender, who lives near the McRae family's home, alleged that Anthony fired his weapon "out of the back door of the house into the yard."

On Monday night, Anthony entered a campus building of Michigan State University and began his shooting spree at students.

The open secret is that the Democrat Party is the party of criminals. They do not want to arrest criminals. Criminals are among their most dedicated voters.

But they need to say something when another Lifetime Democrat Voter kills people.

So they say: "Let's take the guns away from Republicans!"
