He sat in their midst in a South Carolina Church for over an hour as they showed him love and held a Bible study. Then, Dylann Roof stood up and murdered nine human beings in Church as they worshiped God. The last thing these people heard from their murderer was his racist rants about his hate for black people.
But the love and the forgiveness of the families of the nine is outstanding and something admirable. This forgiveness is something the rest of this nation and the world can learn from. The killer, Dylann Roof, is shown on video in his bail hearing when one by one, the remaining families and friends of those he murdered, forgave him for murdering their loved ones.
Reports say the California man flogged down the officers. Four shots then rang out from the officers, at least one of those shots apparently striking the man in his head.
“The officers stopped to investigate and see what was needed,” LAPD spokesman Lt John Jenal told NBC Los Angeles. “This person then extended their arm, which was wrapped in a towel.”
The officers, who say they believe he had a gun in his hand, told him to drop his weapon, then, according to onlookers, fired four shots. At least one of the round appears to have struck the suspect in the head, as evidenced by this video, which depicts the officers rolling him over to handcuff him after he has collapsed. No officers were shot.
Then man is now hospitalized in critical condition.
The 21-year-old coward who went to a predominately black church in Charleston South Carolina on Wednesday and murdered 9 people as they prayed in what was supposed to be a peaceful sanctuary, was captured toady in North Carolina and has since been extradited back to South Carolina. Below is President Obama’s statement on these senseless killings.
Donald Trump is running for president. Have you heard? He made a “speech” about it yesterday. It’s the kind of speech that would make Sarah Palin proud. This “speech” has been described by Jon Stewart as “the most beautifully ridiculous jibber-jabber ever to pour from the mouth of a batshit billionaire.”
Stewart goes on…
“America’s id is running for president! This speech was so fucked up that in the middle of it, all the liquid in his body tried to escape from the corner of his mouth.”
Now, when Mitt Romney ran for president the first time and got defeated, then ran the second time and got defeated, defeat was not the only thing that stuck to Mr. Romney, his uncanny ability to flip flop and be untrustworthy also stuck. So with that uncanny ability to be fake, Romney is calling out Hillary Clinton as being fake, just just like he is.
“When you see her on a stage or when she comes into a room full of people, she’s smiling with her mouth but her eyes say, ‘Where’s my latte?'” Romney said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
“It just doesn’t suggest she believes everything she’s saying,” he continued, calling her performance “jarring.”
Romney faced similar criticism during his own runs for President for flip-flopping on multiple hot-button issues, struggling to connect with working-class voters, and saying things like he enjoys hunting “small varmints, if you will.”
“At this stage, what does she really believe?” he said on Monday. “I think people wonder, can they really trust Hillary Clinton?”
Assemblywoman Shannon Grove, R-Bakersfield, was one of several Republicans calling for lawmakers to reject a measure to overhaul California's enterprise zone program, during the Assembly session at the Capitol Thursday, June 27, 2013, in Sacramento, Calif. The measure AB93 by Assemblyman Bob Blumenfield, D-Woodland Hills, and supported by Gov. Jerry Brown, failed to pass on the two initial attempts, but was passed on the third vote.

And you thought you had heard it all.
While speaking at the California ProLife Legislative Banquet last week, California Assemblywoman Shannon Grove (R) suggested a theory that the state’s worst drought in 1,200 years may be divine retribution for California providing women with access to abortions, RH Reality Check reported.
“Texas was in a long period of drought until Governor Perry signed the fetal pain bill,” she told the audience. “It rained that night. Now God has his hold on California.”
Grove was likely referring to House Bill 2, RH Reality Check noted, a Texas abortion bill banning abortions 20 weeks after fertilization, four weeks earlier than the standard set by Roe v. Wade.
Grove did not immediately respond to a request for confirmation that she made the statement at the event, but she elaborated on her theory in a Facebook comment.
“I believe –and most Americans believe –that God’s hand is in the affairs of man, and certainly was in the formation of this country,” she wrote. “Is this drought caused by God? Nobody knows. But biblical history shows a consequence to man’s actions.”
In the audio recording below, a famous Republican voice explained her position on women voters – they shouldn’t be allowed to vote at all.
“If we took away women’s right to vote, we’d never have to worry about another Democrat [sic] president,” the Republican said. She then goes on to explain that taking away women’s right to vote is a “personal fantasy” of hers.
And the police Chief is standing by the decision to shut down the stand, telling the local news that his officers must enforce the rules.
The two girls, 7 year old Zoey Green and her 8 year old sister Andria, ventured outside with their pitcher of lemonade on Monday, when they were approached by the Overton cop eager to protect and serve the community from these ruthless thugs.
The cop is heard on a recording telling the mother of the two lawbreakers that they needed a permit to operate the stand.
Apparently realizing the ridiculousness of the cop’s action, the town waived the $125 permit fee when a friend went to inquire about a permit. The girls ended up giving away their lemonade for free.
In this case the video existed, and it showed the final moments of Walter Scott’s life as he ran away from the officer who ended up shooting him in the back. Earlier this week, the grand jury in South Carolina indicted officer Michael Slager on a murder charge.
Mr. Scott was originally pulled over on April 4th for a busted break light, but is later seen on dash cam running away from the officer with the officer giving chase. A passerby later saw the final confrontation between the officer and the man and began recording the events on his cell phone. Moments later, Mr Scott is seen on cell phone video breaking away from the officer and attempted to run, but this time, he did not get too far. The unarmed man was shot in the back by the police officer and died.
Michael Slager was immediately fired from his job as a South Carolina police officer and later arrested.
A man was being sought in connection with the sexual assault of a homeless woman early Saturday morning in Pasadena, KTLA reports.
The victim and her boyfriend had been asleep in their encampment about 2:50 a.m. when the woman woke up, “startled to find herself partially unclothed and the suspect sleeping behind her,” the Pasadena Police Department said in a news release.
The intruder stood up and fled the scene on foot as the victim’s boyfriend ran after him, the statement said. The suspect, a homeless man, managed to escape and remained at large on Monday.
He was identified as 47-year-old Emilio Buch.
Investigators released a photo of Buch and asked anyone with information to call Lt. Terysa Rojas of the Pasadena Police Department at 626-744-4522 during business hours, or the non-emergency dispatch center at 626-744-4241. Tips can be submitted anonymously at LACrimeStoppers.com or wetip.com.
Well, in his sick demented mind, posting a picture of a beheaded woman on his Facebook page was a splendid idea, and a great way to get his point across. What was his point? To bring back the death penalty to Nebraska.
Senator Bill Kintner (R) took down the offensive post after his comment section grew out of control from constituents who thought it was insensitive of the lawmaker to use the offensive picture in order to make the point that he wants to bring the death penalty back
The Nebraska legislature recently banned the death penalty in the state, with enough votes to override the governor’s veto.
Kintner, a death penalty supporter, re-posted the photo after discovering it on his timeline, explaining, “I saw it and I said, ‘Well, that makes the point.’”
According to Kintner he had no idea where the picture was taken or who beheaded the woman.
“But if it happened in our state, we couldn’t do anything,” he explained. “We’d just put him in jail for 50 years and feed him nice meals. That doesn’t sound right to most Nebraskans.”
Faced with a public outcry, he pulled the picture Wednesday night, writing, “The amount of comments this FB page has gotten in the last week are off the charts and my staff and I do not have the time to police the comments. The longer a thread gets the harder it is to police. I know I am partly to blame by by posting content that pokes folks on the other side of the issues mentioned.”
