"You have that Exactly backwards.

The cities in the States that have the strictest gun laws also have the highest murder rate. Think NYC and Chicago. This would be considered a light weekend in Chicago.

Apparently this shooter was mid 40's? And had no known connection to Wayne State?

I wonder if he was on meds?

They released his name already."

And this is all you have to say? Nothing but the same ole Republican talking points that have been peddled for close to . . . forever.

Blame mental illness when the Johnny Engler is responsible for putting those with needs in the streets. Sure, let's go there with the "mental illness" talking point: it's a shame that the Republicans who need mental care only find it in the clutches of firearms. Those who claim their little pea shooters keeps them safe from "tyranny" are just Cosplayers who forget that when it comes down to it, your weapons cache will never stand up against the might of the US military. You are completely delusional if you think you could even hang against the local police force, let alone the SWAT team, US National Guard, Military and Special Forces.

Next will be the "if there was only a teacher, good guy, toddler armed with a gun they would have been able to stop this carnage" talking point.

"And had no known connection to Wayne State?" Wow, dood! He had no connection to MSU -- WSU was never mentioned.
