Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer is now calling for action on what she referred to as a ‘gun violence public health crisis’ in the wake of a school shooting which left 4 students dead and several more injured on Tuesday.
As The Daily Wire reports:
Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) released a statement Wednesday afternoon calling for action on “the gun violence public health crisis” following a school shooting that killed four students in Oxford, Michigan.
“This is a time for Michiganders to come together for the Oxford community,” Whitmer said in a video she posted to Twitter.
“We have a responsibility to protect each other from the gun violence public health crisis that we all face as Americans,” she continued. “We have to build a state where no one is afraid to go to school, or work, or a house of worship, or even their own home.”
Whitmer released the video after news broke of a fourth student dying from the shooting.
For Hana, Tate, Madisyn, Justin, and their families. For the entire Oxford community.

Whitmer has previously voiced her support for increased gun control in the state.
That’s right, attack an inanimate object instead of a perpetrator. How very PC!

What else would one expect from that piece of garbage governor. Michigan gets what it deserves for voting this pancake faced bottom feeder into office!!
Not all of us deserve that c**t. Just the cheating trash in the southeast corner of the state. I tried to clean up my language, if you could only hear what I really think.
Well, I heard it loud and clear! Where is her toothbrush mustache? Heil Whitler!
Since we need gun control to make things safer and make gun makers and dealers liable for injuries and deaths caused by such “murderous devices”, it’s only reasonable to have motor vehicle control and make motor vehicle makers and dealers liable for the injuries and deaths caused by such “murderous devices”. After all, it was the suv that committed mass murder and injury, running over people in the Christmas parade, not the driver.
And yet there is no gun control that would stop these things from happening.
Criminals (like this kid) will always get guns. With police told to stand down from doing their job by politicians your average citizen needs gun(s) to protect themselves. Horrendous precedence set in Minneapolis end of May 2020.
Gun control laws disarm only law abiding citizens and have no impact whatsoever on criminals.
If he hadn’t had a gun, a knife or a hammer would do.
At least in London, England, some knives are banned.
Not true look at Chicago,and New York , Philly and other cities that make it impossible to get a gun permit….oh wait nevermind! Liberals are a broken record with their bs
Ultimate goal of democrats is to disarm American citizens. It is in the Democrat playbook that says, ” A disarmed populace is ripe for implementing whatever the leaders desire because a disarmed populace can offer no violent opposition.” Democrats will play hell in trying to get rid of 400 million guns in the hands of true American patriots who are peaceful unless riled and usually pose no social problems. Criminals will always have a means of obtaining guns no matter what laws are passed. But democrats always aim their thjreats at the law-abiding, not the criminal element.Any misuse of guns is another excuse to go after them and take them away from everybody.
Yep you are right there!
That’s the plan; make the population poor, stupid and unarmed!
this IS THE LAST TIME I EVER VOTE FOR YOU!
I think what we really need is communist ( progressive ) control ..stop mail in voting..these idiots speak as if guns,knives,hammers have a mind of their own ..only “ law” I can think of would be if a gun is used in any crime life in prison would put a stop to crime
Of course, the operative term here is “crime.” Using a firearm to defend yourself and/or others from anyone bent on evil intent is not a crime. The real goal is to prosecute, convict and incarcerate the perpetrators. We do not need new or additonal laws. There are already laws on the books that WILL do that very thing. There is not one criminal act committed with a firearm that is NOT ALREADY against the law. We have elected officials who are too damned lazy or cowardly (or maybe stupid) to enforce those laws. Their decisions are based upon getting or losing votes in the next election, not upon putting criminals in prison.
When they talk of “Gun Laws”, it’s rhetoric to mean “Gun confiscation”
There must ne a complete assault weapons ban, and an assault weapon defined as all weapons that use an internal or external magazine regardless of action and handguns.
You are truly an idiot Thomas John. I guess you don’t believe in self defense, hunting, or olympic sports either. Or the Constitution.
Sure Thomas – and when the govt comes along and forces you to do something you don’t want to do because of your freedom to make individual choices, what will you use to stand against them? Our founding fathers didn’t give us the 2nd Amendment to go hunting; it was created so that the American people could defend themselves from a tyrannical govt.
Why don’t you put a plastic bag over your head, seal it tightly and stop wasting oxygen?
We don’t need “gun control” what we need is communist democrat control! Twice in 160 years they have brought this nation to civil war in their effort to destroy it, this MUST be their last! Find out who the school shooter was talking to online, the FBI has a history of creating this kind of crime!
She just lost her job watch what happens election day
So very sorry. Nothing this wannabe has to say is good for Michigan.
by all means vote this wud be tyrant ,dictator out of office. she has no respect for our Constitution and 2nd amendment
Meanwhile, we,in Michigan, demand a new governor. This lawless slug, has taken Mich. down our bad roads to further ridicule and ruin.. In the pic, you also see Stabecow.. She only comes out of her office for photo ops..
No, she needs to take control of her state and stop allowing felons to go free. The problems are those who have them illegally and parents not keeping them locked and away from their children.
Gun control is not the answer….people control is the answer…fear of going to prison is the answer…hire cops make arrests….
We here in Michigan, that has a brain call her Hitmer! Only and last time she is in office. Barring Fraud.
They remain in a frenzy to disarm Americans, and then we all have to ‘knuckle’ under to the communists now taking over.
When you are scared of guns you need to move to China and leave America alone China has gun control For the Communist
Yea cuz CRIMINALS always abide by the law as opposed to honest law-abiding citizens..
SMH
Any one in the roll of making laws who violates their Oath to Support and Defend the Constituiton is an enemy of our Republic. Enough of this shit! We, the People, will not go the way of Australia or New Zealand.
The only way to make Michigan safe is for Nit Witmore to resign.
….along with her posse: Benson and Nessel. The three of them remind me of the Cinderella story: the evil Stepmother, and her 2 unattractive evil daughters.
I guess she will want to ban kitchen knifes first as they are responsible for many more deaths than rifles each year… and make us all wear oversize boxing gloves during all our waking hours as fist and hard implements are used in more deaths than rifles and handguns combined. What about banning SUVs? Oh, and legally owned firearms are hardly ever used. So, I guess it really is CRIMINALS THAT KILL AND NOT WHAT THEY USE. Apprehend and put criminals away as is your responsibility Governor.
What is “ gun violence “ ?
What an effing ID10T!! It’s NOT the gun, fool it’s another demented idiot that gets his hands on a gun, illegally (straw gun purchase) from someone (father) who should know that is son has MENTAL PROBLEMS!!
Murder is already ILLEGAL, but ONE more UNCONSTITUTIONAL (23,000 and counting) anti-gun “law” will fix the ILLEGAL MURDERS by CRIMINALS!!
R-I-G-H-T!!
It makes as much “common sense” to have 23,000 anti murder laws, including mass shooting MORE ILLEGAL!!
Effing idiots!!!!
Yet an SUV killed people in Waukesha. Are you going to take away vehicles too? This is what demonrats do. As soon as there is a gun incident they go after our 2nd amendment rights! The courts should strike down ALL of these gun restrictions as they go against our basic 2nd amendment rights. But I am sure she will still have armed security with her.
Yeh right shoot her
FIX THE DAMN ROADS
Bring back Mental Health Services..after all that is the Main issue here..
Gretchen Whitmer is as lost as last years easter eggs. If she really wanted to help, instead of being Bidens horses ass, she should take her ignorant ass down to the no crisis border & help stop some of the multi subject contraband coming across to the local gangs that her party supports
The only Laws we need are already on the Books but they are not enforced by Liberal Prosecutors! Any new Laws they want to Pass are aimed directly at legal Gun Owners whom the Left wants disarmed! The more Prosecutors the Soros Foundation gets Elected the more this is going to happen!
DON’T WORRY ALL THOSE JOBS YOU CAUSED TO BE LOST IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY AND ARE NOW MOVING TO TENNESSEE, I’M SURE THEY WILL BE TAKING THEIR GUNS WITH THEM. THE LOOSER Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
Lock up the murderer and his Family for the school shooting
What can I say that already hasn’t been said. Agree with all. Specifically the one about you keeps voting her in.
Everyone around the world knows guns don’t kill people. People do. What about cars & alcohol. Drugs. What about all the illegal drugs & people & GUNS coming across the southern boarder!?!
How about Whitmer Control? Her criminal administration that empowers criminals and releases them after arrest by police who do the job they are sworn to do. Time for non- violent Civil Disobedience? Mahatma Gandhi stated perfectly:
” Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.” Defy with zeal The Tyrant Whitmer.
