Recently, (Wednesday) there was a shooting in a Charleston church. (South Carolina) This shooting was based off of race. Shortly after a prayer, a guy stood up and specifically shot 9 African Americans to death and left one alive just so he could mock. He called the person names that are highly offensive. He was arrested shortly after. He is a 21-year old High School Dropout and a Confederate supporter. Here is a picture of him taking a selfie with the confederate flag: http://gyazo.com/f571384d8c47f625b3da5d965dba7182.png This was him the night before the shooting. Another thing was that the South Carolina Capital building still had the Confederate flag up. http://gyazo.com/04bce9a5c74220663afacd83af42e930.png (Yes, the sun is shining through it.) When the victim's relatives came to talk to him in jail, he basically ignored them all, and it was very likely he will continue to be a Confederate supporter. He is luckily facing Death Row.

Yes this guy is pure evil. He does not care about killing them. I'm glad he's getting the death sentence he's the one that deserved death not those innocent people.
People like him are solely inhumane. RIP to the ones that suffered from the shootings. This is just such sad news like seriously, just because they are black, shame on him. He deserves big punishment for this atrocious attack.
It is absolutely disposable that somebody would do this. People can't help what race they are. I hate it how people think that it's okay to do sh*t like this. @Robbin in your thread, we argued about the death penalty. I said that I disagree with it, but when you put somebody like this in the picture, they deserve it. I am so pissed off that some dumba** motherfu*ker thinks he can just go out and kill a bunch of people that aren't his race. I'm sorry for swearing, but I have a rage built up inside my body, that I need to get out on this guy. @Jace thanks for this thread. Appreciate it.
The confederate flag isn't just a sign for racism, for some people mostly southerners see it as a symbol of Southern heritage, a history they associate with honor and valor, not racism. I don't believe that you should automatically assume people who fly the flag are racist. Although some such as this kid are. Some people argue the devil gets into people's heads or they are evil or anything along those lines, in my opinion I believe people are just fucked up and that is just the society we live in.
For the record, that's not a selfie. A selfie is a photograph in which the photographer is also the one featured in the photograph, often showing the photographer's arm. Also, his hair is cut like his mom put a bowl on his head and cut off any hair not inside the bowl.
That's beside the point. A picture is a picture. A selfie is a selfie. It's just a photograph not a big deal.
I know it's beside the point but I've said it before and I'll say it again, I have a pathological need to be right. Sorry, I just can't help it. It drives my family insane. I promise to stay on topic on this thread from now on. Stay away smeags
