Yes, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. |
He wasn't prohibited from having a firearm after probation ended. His previous possession, which wasn't a felony and put him on probation, was illegal. I haven't seen anything to say whether this was a legal possession or not. Doesn't matter. A gun is a gun is a gun is a gun. Ask the people who were shot whether they cared if he filed paperwork for that gun or not. Oh wait, you can't. They're either dead or fighting for the life in a hospital. |
He had a felony charge against him, but the progressive DA let him plea to a lower misdemeanor. Maybe we should start taking crime seriously and prosecuting those who are in illegal possession of a firearm. |
Every prosecutor, progressive or not, takes pleas to avoid trials. |
| Another known wolf arrested on previous gun charges and walking free. This is what we asked for. |
Do you think that DA feels bad right now? |
Admit that you just don’t like that people have rights in a criminal trial and you find law too complex and slow to understand. You wish we just chopped off the hands of suspected thieves. |
NRA and gun nutters are fine with abusers having guns. Also, most mass shooters were not criminals until they committed the mass shooting. The answer is not "take guns away from criminals" but to reduce the easy access to guns, or just get rid of them for most people. |
| Under current Second Amendment jurisprudence, I'm skeptical of the legality of prohibiting felons from owning guns in the first place. If domestic abusers can't be prohibited from possessing firearms, why would we prohibit someone convicted of stealing a car or having a bunch of marijuana from having a gun? They too can be part of a well-regulated militia. |
Motive is important. For prosecution, and for prevention. |

What seems to be known about the murders at the moment is that the killer shot and killed two students at Berkey Hall around 8:18 p.m. on Feb. 13th. He entered at least two classrooms. From Berkey Hall, the killer made his way to the Student Union where he killed a third person. He injured five other people between the two locations. He was seen by campus security cameras headed north from the Union which is on the northern edge of campus. He was confronted by police off campus and shot himself in the head.
The people murdered by McRae were Brian Fraser, a sophomore, and Arielle Anderson, a junior - both from Grosse Pointe, Michigan; as well as Alexandria Verner, a freshman from Clawson, Michigan. McRae was a 43 year old man who had been unemployed since 2020 and, prior to that, had worked at a warehouse. McRae's father described him as having anger issues and said that McRae's father also said, he was "evil and mean, and he didn't care about anything anymore." |
