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?
Best guess is because a state senator was there preaching at the time. Another guess is he thought he'd get less resistance inside a church than from another type of group. That church is well know for its place in black history. That was no accident, don't you think? He let one person live so she could tell what happened and what he said. A five year old survived by playing dead.

People like sharpton and Obama see an event like this, and start figuring out how they can use it to advance their politics, their careers and move their agendas forward.
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.
obama did not call for new gun legislation in this speech, you want to link the speech where he did so, or is that just your interpretation?

There was a reason he chose this particular church as he was from Columbia, over two hours away. There's no shortage of black churches in Columbia or points in between. I wonder why he chose this particular black church though. Was it the pastor, the history of the church, or something else? No idea. Wonder if we will ever know?
My heart ache for those victims and their family. BUT at the same time, this is a baby...A distrub, evil demented little boy. Sad all around.
He's not a baby - not even a child. He's an adult mass murderer and will be facing South Carolina justice which is almost guaranteed to be the death penalty.

Death penalty is too easy for him. Let some inmates get to him.
Apparently whoever sold him the gun trusted him in spite of his haircut.
His father got the gun for him for his 21st birthday apparently. So there goes the question I'm sure the media would have asked, Where are the Parents?

Really? The church is a staple in the black community. Why do you think politicians go there to give speeches during election periods?
