The MSU shooter should have been in jail, but he got a plea deal for prior gun crimes

Once again, it was a preventable shooting. No, it could not have been prevented by passing more gun control laws, but it could have been prevented if local prosecutors had only enforced existing gun laws.

The shooter, Anthony McRae, was arrested in 2019 and charged with “carrying a concealed pistol without a concealed carry permit.” This is a felony that carries a potential five-year prison sentence and would have prevented McRae from being permitted to own a firearm once his sentence was up. Instead, he pleaded down to possession of a loaded firearm in a vehicle, which is a misdemeanor. Prosecutors dismissed the felony charge, and he served just 18 months probation instead.

The real question is why aggressively prosecuting gun criminals is so shockingly low on the Democratic Party’s agenda. They almost seem to oppose it, even though it is the one thing that could prevent shootings and reduce crime.

Thank you Democrat policies.
