Mass shooting in S.C.

[keyboarder]

Here is what P me O.  Hitlery can't answer the first question on the Benghazi event but here she comes on this scene saying that this was a racial and hate filled crime.  Just who in the world is interested in what she thinks or moreover what she has just got to say?  I'd like to strangle her for injecting herself into this mess.  Then there's Bozo and his gaggle of follow alongs trying to preach against guns again.  If all that is not enough, we've got the rebel flag thingy raising its ugly head again and some still angry since the Civil War that we can allow that flag to be flown on state grounds.  Never mind that some of us (most Southerners) see that flag as part of our heritage.  The rest want to see it took down because it reminds them that a few relatives over a hundred years ago lived to see that flag flown and were reminded of the slavery they had to endure.  I owned no slaves nor did any of my people and the rebel flag means heritage to me, historical symbol of our past and earliest years as a state. 

If you were anywhere in SC since the tragedy at the AME church in Charleston, you would have been witness to an outpouring of outreach towards the victims and their families and friends.  This is so much different than the Ferguson event in the way that the community has handled it, not only in Charleston but all over this state.  We can handle this tragedy without the interference of those who want to make it about some sort of agenda that would be far, far worse than it is already.

I am so impressed with the South Carolinians!  They are being a wonderful example to the Country of the way Christians react vs. the pagans.  It is the best manifestation and testimony of the faith in recent history.  Until now, the Nation thought only the Amish forgive unconditionally.  Now they know that Christians manifest that trait also.

The fine folks of Carolina are a bright light in the darkness this nation as descended into.  Thank you to all who are involved in this wonderful expression of Christian love.

I heard on Fox news this morning that the perp's sister, uncle and dad all called police and identified him. I was wondering how his identity was found out so quickly.

The fact Sharpton and his ilk have remained silent is deafening. It wouldn't surprise me that he tested the waters with the locals and was told in no uncertain terms to stay away.

As I follow the reporting on this story I continue to wonder about the Pastor/Senator that was killed.

He seems like a very nice man and committed Christian.  I have a difficult time reconciling that with his affiliation with the democrat party.  How does he do that?  How does he vote on issues like abortion?  Does he not see a great chasm between the democratic platform and the Bible?

The vast majority of children murdered by abortion are black.  Does that not bother him?

Are the blacks so indelibly ensconced in the democratic party that they are blinded to anything else?

It truly boggles my mind!

I agree, it isn't just a one issue, one size fits all answer.
The one overwhelming issue in all of this is, the kid was a freakin nut with drug problems, all the other factors merely reinforced his hatred for everything, including himself.
Many times these failed individuals focus on one issue to blame for their on failures in life, such as standing up for ones self, and it would appear his scapegoat was blacks.

^ This.  You take all the mass killers and what do they have in common?  They are young male misfits on drugs.  What was the focus of the Columbine killers?  The kid who murdered all those little kids?  Holms, the Colorado theater shooter?  Gabby Giffors' shooter?  We had one at USB who stabbed three roommates and killed two girls at a sorority and two others. He was mad because the hot girls didn't pay attention to him.

Just found this, it says exactly what I've been thinking for a long time now.

TO STOP MASS KILLERS, WE HAVE TO STOP DRUGGING OUR YOUNG BOYS

Roof is just the latest in a long line of young men who have committed appalling crimes after a lifetime on psychotropic drugs. If you don't believe me, consider some of the most notorious young male shooters in American history.

Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza? Lexapro and Celexa. Red-headed Aurora killer James Holmes? Clonazepam and sertraline. Virginia Tech mass murderer Seung-Hui Cho? Prozac. Charles Whitman, the "Texas Tower Sniper"? Dexedrine. Columbine executioners Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold? Zoloft and Luvox.

You get the idea. These young men were all on prescribed medication. Feminism helped to get them there. In particular, female teachers who either dislike men or are completely ignorant of healthy behaviour norms for boys are creating a generation of emotionally stunted, drugged up young men.

Millions of young American men are prescribed powerful drugs after being diagnosed with the phantom condition "ADHD," better known as a mixture of natural boisterousness and poor parental discipline. The mere fact of being male has become pathologised.

When they get into their teens and early twenties, they graduate onto drugs like Zoloft and Prozac, drugs that can produce a powerfully dissociative effect in the mind, muddying the distinctions between reality and fantasy. All this, because boys are now treated as though they are defective girls.

It was way worse in the 60's.  Racial unrest wasn't an illusion, like today's social-networking tries so hard to project.  They're small-minded racial-nostalgists who missed-out on the factual relevance of past unrests... including soetoro.

Think about how huge the Country is.   

I agree it was worse in the 60s. I wasn't in-country during the Detroit riots but the pernicious fallout from that one remains an indelible blotch on Democratic Party politics. Racial animus against Coleman (Steal With Both Hands) Young forced upheaval at local and regional levels, and began the Motor City's slide straight into the yawning jaws of community death.

People are people and economies go up and down and the jobs increase or shrink accordingly. It's not racial to be unemployed in Michigan --- not unless it's the Democrats who created the problems, now yelling for help on how to fix it so they can blame THAT failure on anyone but themselves.

Liberal media last night went into the berserkosphere trying to assign blame for what drugs did to this twisted piece of shit who today is lucky he wasn't capped during capture. Bill Maher blames Limbaugh, The Daily Caller and Drudge. Hilldabeast blames politicians. The Southern Poverty Law Center may as well blame George W. Bush.

The problem is, none of those were sitting there stuffing pills down this punk's gullet as he wrote his "manifesto," in copycat fashion ala Ted Ka-whatshisname (that Unibomber hero of every pimple-picking would-be martyr like this punk). This murderous miscreant did it all by himself, a homicidal masturbation with weapons.

I found these photos moving and self explanatory.

On a personal note, I was born, raised and always lived in the south in GA, MS and NC (I consider myself very fortunate having worked my entire career with a national corporation). Those who have never lived here do not understand the bond many White and Black folks have here. Most of us did not come from wealth and had the same struggles. In 1950 my best friend was a Black kid who lived down a dirt road behind our house. His mother did some house keeping for us. We visited in each others homes and shared meals there. When I went to school I asked My Dad why "Brother" did not attend the same school I did. He said that is just the way it is. There was never any derogatory words about Blacks in my home although the "N" word was common in those days. I am grateful the way my parents raised me concerning this issue. In my career I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work with many fine Black folks and they were some of the best sales people I had. I feel we connected because of our backgrounds.

This is a tragic event in Charleston. However, it is also is showing what is actually the "real story" about race relations in the South

We may have an answer as to why Rev. Sharpton is missing in action.

Sharpton may be missing, but Obama is on his way. It was just reported that Obama is going to speak at the pastor's funeral. He must be upset his race hustlers have notjoined in to  try stir up locals. We should all pay attention to what Obama says. His history is he can't help himself when it comes to race. I truly expect him to try and stir it up. Let's just pray the good folks of SC reject his racism.

Excellent points.
Gee, I wonder if he'll for an end to all the violence?

Or question why there was no violence.

[kroz]

If Obama gets too feisty in his eulogy.. he might just get a backlash from the fine black people of Charleston!

They seem very firm in their no violence stance!  It is their strong faith that rejects hate and violence.  If it comes down to Obama or their faith, guess which they will choose?
