No parody of Americans as gun crazed nutjobs can go too far

sigh...

What I am saying is that this kid has been lied to and manipulated. I'm not saying that it is infowars or fox's fault. I'm saying that if they are going to blame a substance for these murders, they better look at the reasons why he believed what he believed and where the ideas came from.

No but you certainly suggested it in the context of your post, Hey I agree lets look at the reasons why he believed what he believed as well who are what was feeding him these ideas. I don't think anyone really knows that do they? You have suggested things like infowars or fox, so far it looks like he may have come from a broken home, was depressed (enter SSRI's) and couldn't get anyone to love him. Reportedly blasted Oprah in the car and not rush limpdick or glen speck apparently.

News sources like infowars and Fox do provide news for millions of people and they have a responsibility to report fairly and truthfully and many of these right wing sources either lie or manipulate facts in order to appease their already-crazy readers/viewers.
In your opinion. I'm sure the same could be said for MSNBC, CNN and whatever others are the favorites of the left wing.


I invite you to read responses in the comments to some of your news sources' articles. Death threats, hate filled rants, and outright racist/homophobic/sexist responses.
I don't read comments on news articles I come here for comments. I'm sure you can find plenty of stupid comments at the end of any news source article. Even the one you posted http://www.salon.com/2013/08/03/the_10_worst_examples_of_christian_or_far_right_terrorism_partner/

plenty of stupid comments at the end of that also.

These are the Roofs of the world, but most of them will never act on their beliefs because they are not willing to die or go to prison for them.
that AND perhaps some never act on their beliefs because they aren't also on a deadline SSRI, circle back, so let's circle back here do you not agree that SSRI's might be a factor in many of these?
 
Predictably, Alex Jones is already calling this a False Flag, likely further angering like-minded bastards like Roof.

Reasonable journalistic questions IMO. Personally I would stop short of concludeing a false flag though. You don't have to agree with everything you read to continue reading it. Still a far better news source than fox and cnn or msnbc IMO, all you get there is a steady diet of partisan talking point pundit bickering 24/7 it's a complete waste of time, those so called reliable news networks are a complete waste of time. IMO.
 
There have already been journalists in the south claiming the kid is black, not white... so why not claim it's a false flag too.

What the hell, if Rachel Dolezal can "self identify" as black, we can force Dylann Roof to be black, removing the racism angle so people can go on calling a war on Christianity instead.
 
Dude, think about it. This kid has been planning this for a while now. It wasn't a snap decision in which you would get somebody under the influence killing random people. this was a thought-out and well planned mission.

So if drugs weren't the issue, why did he kill those people? Well, by his own words, he wanted to kill blacks to start a new civil war and protect his country from being taken over by blacks and mexicans.

Now, go back on wnd and alex jones and listen to what they say. They preach about god being under attack, our culture changing, freedom of speech being silenced, illegals and minorities taking over the country, the government coming for our guns and trying to turn us all into fags. They speak of muslims in the white house and an emperor as president. They pound their fists about tragic events like sandy hook and aurora colorado as False flags carried out by the government to scare us all into giving up our rights and military exercises being conducted to prepare for martial law so Emperor Obama can crown himself for life.

These are the brainwashed ideas that Roof has. They did not come from getting high. They came from sources like fox news, wnd, infowars, rush limpdick, and glenn beck.

Hypocrites who put dangerous lies into ignorant people and then blame everybody and everything else when something actually happens.

I think we need to relook at the original info:

So... you may have read about that psycho creepy white supremacist who just murdered 9 African Americans in Church, purpotedly with a .45 his father gave him for his 21st birthday.

The Charleston newspaper ran the story as front page news with an ad for a local gun range on it.

The issue as I see it is, who would give a kid with mental issues a gun as a birthday present (or any other reason)? If the father actually did that, then he needs to be arrested. If the kid was not yet known to be crazy (not likely, but maybe he experienced an event that made him osycho after being given the gun) then there is still a burden of responsibility upon the dad to remove the gun from the kid's possession.

Once someone is on psych meds, they should not be allowed to possess a gun legally. Why is that not considered the primary issue? Why is the dad (and any additional friend or relative who knew he had a gun and was taming psych drugs) not being arrested for endangering the public at a minimum, an accomplice, or better still, as the top murder suspect. I honestly believe the kid deserves to spend life in a mental institution while the father (and others) deserve life in prison without parole for creating a deadly situation without regard to public safety.

How many times do we have to see these psychos be given guns and then killing people before we start holding the gun provider responsible?
 
At the risk of this just being more right wing untrustworthy hogwash from unapproved media sources


One in 10 Americans now takes antidepressant medications and many others illegally acquire these drugs for recreational use. I am certainly not suggesting that one in 10 of us is a killer. What I am saying, is that when these powerful medications are given, they must be medically supervised, and all of the side effects must be considered by the prescribing doctor. When there is no medical supervision, or lax guidance, these drugs can enhance aggressive behavior and further fuel irrational thinking. The illegal prescription drug abuse on the streets is far too great for us to ignore.

Uncontrolled drug abuse in people that already possess racism and hatred in their hearts makes for an incredibly dangerous situation.


Psych drugs + hatred + illegal guns can lead to insane violence

What Dr. Manny is saying is right on the money here. He's not claiming that psychiatric drugs alone can transform people into crazy killers, but when they are consumed by people who are already near the breaking point with rage, hatred, racism, anti-American sentiment (Roof was a flag burner who hated America) and other forms of suppressed rage, they can push people over the edge and unleash their "inner killer." Combine that with illegal access to guns, and you have a "perfect storm" for mass casualties. (Roof had a felony charge pending, so he could not legally purchase a gun from a gun shop, by the way.)

Psych drugs, in other words, are the "activation switch" for unleashing a violent, murderous rage in some individuals. And because psychiatric drugs are so commonly prescribed to tens of millions of people, it's a daily roll of the dice that's almost begging for more violence and mass killings across America, none of which the liberal media dare link to psychiatric drugs, of course, because that would distract from their own narrative that guns alone are to blame for these events.

Point in fact: No gun has ever pulled its own trigger. The trigger must be pulled by a person making a decision to pull it. That decision is made in the brain, and that brain is intoxicated with prescription medications that alter brain function. Thus, the prescription drugs play a crucial role in the decision chain that leads to these mass killings.

No one would blame an automobile for fatalities caused by a drunk driver, for example. The alcohol impairs the brain, and that brain is making the driving decisions that cause a fatal accident. The object (the car) didn't kill anyone; it was the combination of an intoxicated brain and extremely poor decision making on the part of the person abusing the substance.

Take the example of Dylann Roof. He sat in a church alongside his intended victims for over an hour, pondering his actions and deciding to kill these people. If the gun alone was responsible for the killings, it would have leapt out of his pocket and started shooting by itself. But that gun stayed in his pocket for an hour, until Roof made the insane DECISION to start shooting people and committing mass murder for the specific purpose of igniting race wars in America.

What kind of demented mind would ever make such a decision? A mind on psych drugs. That's the pattern we see over and over again.

In addition to pondering practical questions like, "How did this guy obtain a gun in the first place?", maybe it's time we also started a national conversation about "medication control" and stopped drugging up all our young white males with mind-altering drugs. One of the reasons all these shooters are young white males, by the way, is because young white males are the primary targets of psychiatric drugging in America. Learn more from the Citizens Commission on Human Rights.

In the mean time, beware of wild-eyed young males wearing bowl cut hair styles and staring into oblivion. They might be just one Xanax away from killing everyone in the room…

And this is why I call out bullshit websites. When you are constantly told that shit is fucked up and lied to, of course you're going to be angry and the right person will snap.

It's also why i hate the black lives matter movement media coverage. Constantly showing the bad and ignoring inconvenient truths lead to even angrier black kids. The media has a responsibility and is failing in many areas but i would say the alex joneses and glenn becks are the worst of the worst with their lies and fear mongering.
 
So he didn't grow up a racist, yet his Dad buys him a gun while knowing he is on psych meds and has a felony on his record already. Why are people not pissed at the dad???

The extreme right is a huge problem with their hate mongering. I would bet many were saying Roof did a good thing, or worse. The extremes are never good for society.

There is nothing in that linked opinion piece I have ever heard supported by Alex jones or any of the reporters that work for him, your lumping of Alex jones into these racist views in the link supplied is a complete mischariterzation...glen beck I couldn't say, as I don't watch or listen to glen beck

"Does this story make you want to shoot somebody?!? Why, HELL YES IT DID! Head on down to Jim Bob's Gun Land for our $30 all included shooting session."

In all fairness, I'm guessing the ad was sold a week ago & scheduled to run, but jeez... ever heard of editing? Though this being SC, maybe it was intentional.

To be fair here, that type of ad is a sticker that gets placed on the front page by a special machine called a Mueller Martini.

The paper sold the ads weeks out, but then the paper gets printed, the inserts are stuff into it, and then it's run through this machine to have the sticker applied.

It adds about an extra hour to production time. An extra hour for a sales director, managing editor, or publisher to make the decision to kill the add.

It should not have run. Period. Any responsible publication would have killed the ad and rescheduled. In my company, there would have been firings for this, no doubt about it.
 
LOL @ the Onion. Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney (of all people) stepped up to the plate on the Confederate flag issue. But I read elsewhere that Romney lost every primary in southern states, and he's not running for anything (probably ever again), so no skin off his back.

I guess SC governor Nikki Haley deserves some credit for budging on the issue (finally), after previously defending the flag on the grounds that no corporate representatives she had spoken with ever had a problem with it. They did this time though, making it difficult to determine whether or not her actions were genuine.

there's a facebook petition to make June 27th "national burn the Confederate flag day" and it's getting some press. Frankly, this should've been a national holiday since 1865, but better late than never.
 
I like the idea of burning the Confederate flag...just not sure I understand the June 27th date chosen. I would have chosen November 15th, the anniversary of Sherman burning Atlanta and beginning his march, but I'm just a sick and twisted mother fucker who likes to fuck with people in that way. :D

in this case, that's fine. They deserve it.

I don't think there's any significance other than that the day is still within the immediate aftermath of the tragedy and it gives people a few days to organize their protests.
