South Carolina Shooter: ‘You Rape Our Women And Are Taking Over Our Country’
Read Time:1 Minute, 12 Second
A lucky survivor says the man, identified by police as Dylann Storm Roof, who killed three men and six women at a historic South Carolina black church yesterday, reloaded five times during the massacre and offered a chilling statement of his motives.
Roof, in his early 20s, opened fire on a prayer service Wednesday night inside Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, killing Pastor Rev. Clementa Pinckney – who is also a state senator – and eight other congregants.
The lawmaker’s cousin said the shooter came into the church and sat next to Pinckney through the service and started shooting when it concluded.
A survivor told reporters that the gunman reloaded five times during the massacre and ignored the pleas of one man to reconsider killing the worshipers.
“You rape our women and you’re taking over our country — and you have to go,” said Dylann Roof.
Investigators released surveillance camera images of the gunman, who is described as 5 feet 9 inches tall, with light brown hair in a bowl cut.
Police said he was wearing a distinctive sweatshirt and driving a vehicle with a distinctive license plate, although they did not elaborate details about either.
Authorities believe Roof is still in the Charleston area.
Police are investigating the massacre as a hate crime.

The ugly side of the South and the hope this would die out with the older generation seems vain.
I remember worse days, but sometimes I think of the people who died bringing justice and decency as far
as it’s come. Was that all in vain too?
With Fox out there all day trying to create wars and riots and promote hate – has all this been in vain?
Fuck, I copied the wrong thing. Forgive me folks. Here is what I meant to post

I know exactly what it’s about being a target of racism myself. I’m saying fox News is doing the spin on it as is Santorum and other RWNJs. They all got the memo saying it’s about religion and they are parroting that. Watch this and weep right along with the babby Jeebus.
Replying to myself. Ignore this video. I have the right one waiting on moderation. I screwed it up. Maybe Mike or somebody will do me a solid and delete just the vid from my comment, OR it can be left there to show the perils of smoking a bowl or three before noon 😉
No Jess, this was an attack on a race. The fact that they were in a church was just convenient for him. Another nut with a gun. How many more are out there is anyone’s guess.
Meanwhile on Fox News it’s an attack on Christianity and religion. I just can’t even with these people, they make me sick.
An attack on Christianity and religion? WTF?
H just cray cray.
