Three people were murdered and five others injured by a convicted felon with mental problems at Michigan State University on Monday night, and the press, the Democrats, and Joe Biden are exploting this horror for their own political aims.
The murderer, Anthony Dwayne McRae, killed himself at the scene. Before that he terrorized the campus for over four hours as went on his rampage.
The New York Post notes that the motive is not known.
“We have absolutely no idea what the motive was at this point,” MSU Police Interim Deputy Chief Chris Rozman said early Tuesday.
McRae “had no affiliation to the university — he was not a student, faculty or staff, current or previous.”
“I know everybody wants to know what the motive is. We don’t have an answer right now, that’s the honest truth,” Rozman said of the “heinous” attack.
Nevertheless the left and Democrats have already assigned it to their political cause as Latest Mass Shooting or School Shooting. The liberal media are already associating it with Marjorie Stoneman Douglas, because they think believe in disarming law-abiding Americans who aren’t convicted felons and wouldn’t buy an illegal gun illicitly. Because the liberal media are stupid and evil and will exploit anything in order to put their idiotic villainy into practice. Activists group and anti-American dirtbag Shannon Watts are demanding weapons bans — again, only to affect non-felon, non-lawbreaking, non-murderers.
How routine have mass shootings become in the US?
The president just released two separate statements in a 20-minute span—one on the latest Michigan shooting, another on the 5-year mark of the Parkland massacre—calling on Congress to act on gun violence.

Most heinously of all Joe Biden is using it to push his domestic political agenda and State of the Union speech talking points.
What happened at Michigan State University last night is a family's worst nightmare—and it happens far too often in the U.S.
It's time to ban assault weapons. pic.twitter.com/wBc1rJ5JIe

"There is no rationale for assault weapons and magazines that hold 50, 70 bullets," President Biden says, addressing the shooting at Michigan State University.

And let’s not overlook this charlatanry.
‘F—k your thoughts and prayers’: Lawmakers vow action after 3 killed in mass shooting at MSU https://t.co/4ehpsvjipO via @michiganadvance

The killer was a convincted criminal with a past gun charge. It was illegal for him to have any gun. The gun he had was not an “assault” weapon or a rifle of any kind. And he has demonstrable past mental breakdowns.
Inconvenient reality for the gun control crowd: The MSU shooter was a convicted felon named Anthony McRae so it was illegal for him to have a gun at all. He did this with a handgun, not an AR-15. He was previously convicted for breaking a gun law. Criminals don’t follow gun laws. pic.twitter.com/2dJqR1Q35H

Democrats rely on shootings and murders to have the chance to stand in front of cameras and give their own version of “Thoughts and prayers” which consists of demanding gun bans they never act on so they can fundraise off gullible Democrat voters.
I’ll take a prayer over that grotesque exploitation any day of the week.
And if you’re praying, pray that sanity prevails, that the innocent are not disarmed in face of murderous felons who illegally obtain guns, and that somehow, someone will ever adress the real problems like rampant criminality, vicious vindictive entitlement, inflaming of racial and class tensions by leftists with no morality or ethics, and unaddressed dangerous mental illness.
Oh by the way? It was in a so-called gun-free zone.
