In case you don't know, just because people were killed in the church does not mean that those that were killed are true Christians. churches today are filled with pagans that call themselves Christians.

Even if that were true that would certainly not be a justification for murder.

Such a bad tragedy that took place, and done out of racism, hatred, and bigotry.
Then in such a terrible situation most of the Republican candidates go and stick their foots in their mouth by them saying they don't know why he killed those people. Even after it was reported his reason behind the attacks, as the Republican party still has an issue with realizing or admitting that racism still exists.

Saw this clip on the news yesterday. I think it is a good clip for both the overall theme of Christianity and also the direct story/topic. Praise Jesus for the strength he gives these families to forgive, may they be comforted.

Of course racism exist ...In all races....This guy could have been motivated by all the recent black on white crime of late? I want a candidate that will stand up for the whole truth, not just go along with the liberal spin and agenda. Funny how if a muslim or a black kills a white or Christian , we are told not to rush to judgment no matter how evident it is that it was motivated by race or religion.

It is not dribble my friend for they have, and have said multiple times on different news sources their actual statements they made.

Example:
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said on Friday that "I don't know what was on the mind or the heart of the man who committed these atrocious crimes."

He came out and said what his motive was behind the shootings and it was racism.
Yet some of the Republican candidates made statements to where they did not want to admit that racism played a part. Jeb Bush even made the statement I gave in my last post saying he did not know why, when it was reported why it happened. This is not a liberal spin or agenda, it was quotes made by the Republican candidates personally. You can play it off all you want if they did not make these statements, but they did !!!

My point was and is that if this was a black or a muslim the liberals would be yelling about how we cant rush to judgment... I don't see a problem with how any of the republicans have responded and glad they don't play along or cow-tow to the liberal media on issues like this.

Jeb Bush isn't really liked that much by his own party. Even if he was, HIS personal comments and thoughts do not reflect the opinions and views of other Republicans.

Not really. We don't have a true democracy in the U.S. We elect representatives to take our views to Washington. If they don't represent us well, we campaign to change them. But they are the ultimate decision makers.

And no, without knowledge of guns, the purpose the Constitution stands for their personal ownership, you don't know enough to have a say. You assume the purpose established in the document is outmoded. You would be wrong.

Once again this is not a liberal spin or liberal media issue, as those statements came directly from the candidates in the Republican party that even some Republican voters are also upset with.

Jeb bush is not the only Republican candidate who made such remarks, as there were others as well.

Rick Santorum said it was an assault on religious liberty and not racism........

Bobby Jindal said we may never know what was on his mind........

Lindsey Graham said it could never had been racism motivated.................(Since has changed his stance)

Ben Carson at first also said it was not racism motivated, and then since changed his stance....


There have been other comments made to, and they can easily be looked up as I don't want to flood the thread with all of it...

Of course it was spun and that's the reason you brought it up on this thread...some liberal made a big deal out of nothing and you took it, hook, line and sinker .

And their comments don't reflect the views of other republicans either. I'm sure we could find some stupid comments by democrats, but how relevant is that?

Well the media couldn't get all the hate fired up here, over the 9
people that were killed, so they made it a flag issure.

We , will be glad when they all leave our City, and our State.
Media, you have failed, America, You have failed our City
and our State. But, that is par for your course, trying to
spread hate, anger, and discord. We've had it with you, get
out .

It is "dribble," -- or "drivel," as the case may be. You cherry-picked the comment Bush made on that video, and by removing it from it's context, you attempt to make him deny the evil that occurred in Charleston, something he clearly did not do. I post the video -- something you could have easily done as opposed to lifting words out of context -- to let people see for themselves.
