Op-ed:
Executed by a Madman in a House of God

"We don't have all the facts, but we do know that once again innocent
people were killed in part because someone who wanted to inflict harm
had no trouble getting their hands on a gun."
- Barack HUSSEIN Obama speaking soon after the Charleston church shooting
By now everyone knows what happened last week when 21-year old madman Dylann Storm Roof executed nine innocent people engaged in a Bible study/prayer meeting at the Emmanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church (A.M.E.) in Charleston, South Carolina. Corrupting the sanctity of a House of God, Roof was and remains a vile evil racist thug to his very core who was out to kill innocent black people for NO other reason than they were black. There is NO excuse for what he did and while some of the victim's families have 'forgiven' this animal, including the daughter of victim Ethel Lance who said, ”I forgive you...and have mercy on your soul. You hurt me, you hurt a lot of people, but God forgives you, and I forgive you”...I believe that some crimes are beyond the forgivable and this is indeed one of them.
But as horrific as the crime itself was we cannot overlook an equally vile crime...the crime of politicizing this tragedy...of trying to garner political fodder off the tears of those who lost loved ones on that most dark of days.
"You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before." - former Obama advisor and now Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel
Oh so fast to renew the call for more gun control ...basically
translating into a call for the repeal of the Second Amendment...Barack
HUSSEIN Obama...in his 14th statement relating to a mass shooting since
he took office (might there be a correlation here...just saying)...spewed forth his
mantra that once again the easily obtained 'bad' gun did the killing
completely ignoring the fact that someone had to pull the trigger of
said 'bad' gun. Saying...lying actually...that violence of this nature
"doesn't happen in other advanced countries"...just ask the victim's
families of the 12 instances of gun violence that have occurred since
1996 all across the 'advanced' countries of Europe about that...Obama
forgets the all-important facts that this shooting happened in a
'so-called' gun-free zone (as per recent statistics: 92% of mass killers intentionally choose so-called 'gun free
zones' because they can kill a large number of people
before being stopped by armed guards, police, or concealed carriers) and that gun control will NEVER prevent acts
of a madman from happening for NO amount of laws passed can legislate
those hell-bent on perpetrating evil.
So while Obama and the liberals scream ad-nauseum for more stringent and
far-reaching gun laws, including the designation of more areas where
guns are completely banned...blaming what they call the current
'ineffective laws' for the attack and issuing a rebuke of the politics
surrounding current gun control legislation...the far-left propaganda
machine itself continues to spew out a hateful attack on we who are
conservatives by trying to tie-in those of us who believe in limited
government and the Second Amendment to these horrific murders. Yet all
their rhetoric does is give more credence to the fact that criminals and
the mentally ill will NOT be disarmed simply because some law says they
are to be disarmed, but that only we law-abiding citizens will be the
ones that will be disarmed...disarmed and vulnerable to the very folks
the Second Amendment helps us to protect ourselves and our families
from.
And leave it NOT only to Obama to add even more fuel to the already
self-initiated smoldering racial fires that are happening all across our
country by saying that since the church where the shootings happened is
historically black and located in the South that it “raises questions
about a dark part of our history,” now add in Hillary as well who just
this past Saturday at the U.S. Conference of Mayors in San Francisco
questioned America's heart by saying that "race remains a deep fault
line in America and millions of people of color still experience racism
in their everyday lives." And to both of them I say...NO...the only
question this shooting should raise is how the father of this vile
individual...a father who knew well the tenuous at best mental state of
his son...a son who obviously showed signs of severe mental health issues
that either went untreated or undiagnosed...a father who knew of his
son's misplaced animosity bordering on outright hatred of black
people...thought that the giving of a .45 caliber gun to him for his
21st birthday could result in anything but bad news and heartache.
But what can you expect from a parent who themselves has been rumored by the media to be a racist, a bigot, and an all-around hater. The lessons Roof learned from his father's examples helped set him on the path he seemed destined to follow. And when you couple it with a weak mother who also knew that her son had serious issues...a mother who at least had the common sense to take the gun away from her son but who failed to either hide it well or dispose of it...the stage had been set and the players were in place for last week's scenario.
And that brings up the question of should mentally ill
individuals...as Dylann Storm Roof is suspected of being...individuals who
suffer from such mental illnesses as being bi-polar, manic depressive,
paranoid delusional, or schizophrenic...be allowed to purchase, posses,
or be given a firearm. And to that I say NO for while serious mental
illness is just that...an illness...it is NOT an illness that is ever
really cured. Sure most mental illness...but NOT all...can be controlled
by medication, but it can only be so if the ill individual takes their
medication as prescribed. And if truth be told most do NOT because of
either the side effects or because the person thinks they have been
'cured' and just stops taking their meds. And then when their illness
comes back...as is the case most times...it comes back with a
vengeance...and imagine the mentally ill person with a firearm in their
possession when it does.
But being mentally ill...and remember NO sane person goes on a murderous shooting spree nor does any sane person allow themselves to be fueled by all-encompassing hate...is NOT the only hallmark of a mass murderer. A study done a decade ago whose numbers still hold true today on 34 adolescent male mass murderers found that of the 34, 70% were loners; 61.5% had problems with drug abuse; 48% had a preoccupation with weapons; and 43.5% had been victims of bullying...and Dylann Storm Roof easily fits that profile. Suspected by many of being mentally ill, abusing illegal drugs, having few friends, and being in possession of a firearm...along with bad parenting...is at the heart of what happened in Charleston.
And while Dr. Jeffrey Swanson, a medical sociologist at the Duke
University School of Medicine and a leading researcher on the
correlation between mental health and violence, found that mass
shootings...and Charleston certainly classifies as a mass
shooting...are actually rare events that account for only a tiny
fraction of American gun deaths each year...the fact remains that
'normal' individuals do NOT go out and shoot a bunch of strangers. And
even though overall violence is on a downward trend in the U.S., the
actual number of deaths caused by mass shootings has risen. Over the
last three decades, the national homicide rate has fallen from 10 per
100,000 in 1980 to 4 per 100,000 today, but the number of actual mass
shootings has dramatically risen from 4 per year between 1900 and 1970, to 29 per
year since then.
In Roof's case these touch points...his suspected mental illness
coupled with his intense and all-consuming hatred of people of color and
who upon his
arrest confessed that he wanted to start a race war and then kill
himself...planning ones suicide is also a sign of mental
illness...allowed one
ticking time bomb to be lit. And it was just a matter of time before
that
bomb exploded before the lawyers rushed in to try and declare him
insane, ignoring the fact that mental illness differs greatly from
insanity in the eyes of the law. And the fact is that Roof was in NO way
insane as this attack was carefully and methodically planned and
carried out.
And to add to the sadness of this most vile and evil of acts...to add to the sadness even before the nine victims are laid to rest...out comes those who claim the shooting was part of their self-perceived leftist-initiated 'so-called' War on Christianity. But let's set the record straight once and for all...the Charleston shooting had NOTHING to do with the fact that the victims were Christians but had everything to do with the color of their skin. For some like Roof their racial hated fuels their every thought and guides their every action...and this alone was the cause of Dylann Storm Roof's most horrific of acts...and for this alone this most despicable of men should meet his Maker poste-haste and save the South Carolina taxpayers the money that would be spent on housing this bastard for decades to come.
