It wasn't the police though.

They're saying the shooter is 21 years old, do they know who he is ?

I am a white male and I am ashamed of what this man did. I am so sorry for these folks and their families.

Waiting for the gun lobby response: "Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones of those lost in South Carolina. If only the percentage of law-abiding citizens who carry guns were greater, there would have been a chance a good guy with a gun could have saved many of those people."

But the NRA and gun lobbyists doesn't want blacks to have guns.

What caused this shooting is mental illness.

There are some people who simply have some major screws loose, it's not a skin color/race issue.

This occurred because of mental illness plain and simple.

Stop the race baiting.

I don't like racists and I don't consider myself a racist, but I believe that even if someone happens to be a stupid racist, it doesn't mean they're going to go on a psychotic rampage shooting because of what they believe.

This shooter is mentally ill - don't race bait.

If you believe in prayer, that's what the families of the victims need right now. Pray for them.

It's sad, but you need to really think about why this garbage keeps happening, even in 2015.

Sadly you took the bait and acknowledged them, instead of refusing to feed the trolls.

Why is it when blacks shoot other blacks, it's never mental illness, but when it's a white person commits mass shooting sprees, it's mental illness? Hilarious. This is a hate crime. No doubt about it.
