MattFancy Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Honestly, I have a modicum of more respect for him for this move. He could have used this to make himself look good, but he didn't. Another politician is not what is needed right now, nor in the near future. Agree. Now isn't the time for a candidate to come in and beat his/her chest and make this a platform.

TradeTheBeal! Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Stop prescribing everyone anti depressants would be a start. But it's incredibly profitable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Insane how this shooting happened over 10 hours ago, and dude is still out there on the streets. SMH. But yea...good reason to not have the city on lockdown. 2 murderers escaped from a maximum security prison 2 weeks ago..and still not found...so 10 hours is not hard to believe if he had a well thought out plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War Paint Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Not when the south has conveniently rewritten history to associate the confederacy with "states rights" instead of what it truly represented. This is absolutely terrible. Yes, turn this into a North vs South topic..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeesburgSkinFan Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 This is just a horrible date for Charleston. Today is the 8th anniversary of the Sofa Super Store fire that killed the Charleston Nine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Excuses Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yes, turn this into a North vs South topic..... It's not a north vs south topic. A possible hate crime in a state that still proudly displays its racist past. It says something about a cultural mindset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twa Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Stop prescribing everyone anti depressants would be a start. I largely agree, but ya are gonna need to lock up a bunch Possible insight into mind of shooter. odd he would target a church and sit thru a service if that was the reason, along with the killing of mostly females. of course most of their minds are a bit scrambled.

chipwhich Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I largely agree, but ya are gonna need to lock up a bunch We have a vacant mental hospital near me in Crownsville, MD. We used to lock up a bunch but now we just medicate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetoaster Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 how is there not wall to wall coverage right now? MSNBC has Trump on, Fox talking about a NYTimes piece on the SEALS MSNBC actually did a really good job last night, and this is coming from a conservative. When I first saw this last night, I was scurrying for information because I know a lot of people in Charleston and I love that city. I usually lean on CNN for breaking news, but they would talk about Charleston for a minute, and then Brian Williams for 10 minutes. Fox did a decent job, but went away from coverage pretty quickly. MSNBC stayed with the story at least until I fell asleep (which was probably around 2), and they had good coverage, actually gathering information from various reporters on the scene, and not just cutting in for the press conference and then moving on to something else. It annoys me how cable news channels (all of them) hammer the smallest little unimportant things all day and evening long, but then they act like news does not happen late at night and on the weekends. Anyways, this story is just awful. I don't even know what to say. Just a terrible human being with a disgusting, deplorable act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to college in Orangeburg so I spent a ton of time in Charleston because there's nothing to do in Orangeburg lol I have quite a few friends still in Charleston who are feeling pain I can only imagine right now.

Haha...yeah, not much going on in Orangeburg. I used to work a lot in Charleston and still have a lot of friends down there. A friend of mine just moved from there recently and was a Charleston police officer. He really wishes he was still down there to help. It's crazy. That is such a great city with so many warm, friendly people. It's just the last place I would imagine something like this happening, but terrible things can happen anywhere.

Gamebreaker Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 His Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009674437955 I find it curious he stated he was doing it because "they were raping our women", yet many of his Facebook friends are black males in relationships with white females.
