Michigan did not see a spike in gun sales after the massacre at a Texas elementary school.

Over the past few decades, many gun stores in the state reported a spike in gun sales after mass shootings. Bridge Michigan reports that early returns from two stores that always see jumps after shootings reported no increase in the days after Uvalde.

Turnout at the stores was normal, and no one reported hearing any customers comment that they were shopping for a gun because of what had happened at the Texas school.

The Michigan Legislature has approved minor school safety measures since the state’s shooting incident at the Oxford schools, but no major safety initiatives have passed.

“The Michigan Legislature has approved minor school safety measures since the state’s shooting incident at the Oxford schools, but no major safety initiatives have passed.”

Gun control isn’t a safety initiative, it’s a control initiative. The lefties cannot impose their socialist utopia on an armed populace.
