What is so hard to understand about his statement, "I'm here to kill black people"? Don't try to spin it into a war on Christians.

Apparently whoever sold him the gun trusted him in spite of his haircut.

Didn't hear that on the news. Only saw that the shooting killed nine Christians. Why did he choose a christian church instead of some other place where blacks congregate?

Not so much actually. Have the members of that church been known for raping white women and trying to take over the country?

I mean of all the places to go to where he might think people are "raping his women" he goes to a church bible study, and kills mostly women???? The POS is a mentally insane person, end of discussion.

"You rape our women and you're taking over our country."

well it didn't take long for the actions of this one crazed lunatic to turn in to an indictment of the entire white race in this country and how racist they still are.... ( rolling eyes )

We aren't supposed to stereotype all black people for the actions of a few criminals who happen to be black, but I guess that only goes one way.

Knee-jerk is Obama not knowing if any gun laws could have prevented this shooting, but going on TV to make the case for new gun control legislation anyway.

If Roof had screamed allahu akbar, while gunning down people, Obama and the left would be tight lipped and still puzzling out all the edivence before making any statement.

I was watching the live coverage late last night and the Charleston Chief of Police said they were categorizing it as a "hate crime" based upon eyewitness statements.
