Why are some GOP candidates and Fox News downplaying the actions of Dylann Roof???

Hey let's call this what it is- it was racially motivated attack by a Terrorist- and yes he fits the definition of a TERRORIST. However, Fox news wants to twist the truth and make it appear as if it was an attack on Christianity despite the overwhelming evidence that Roof's focus was on Blacks.
Rick Santorum, Jeb Bush, Donald Trump, and Rick Perry have refused to call this a race based terrorist attack. Shame on those guys and the Republican party as a whole- this only shows how far the GOP is out of touch with America. Originally Posted by wellendowed1911

Well isn't that special. A professed racist walks into a black church and kills nine black people and Fox admits it's racially motivated.

And you boys are whooping it up because they admitted it. Some of them?

Great day in the morning. That's a great victory! Something you can hold on to the next time someone suggests that the conservative agenda is somewhat unfair to working Americans, women and minorities.

At least it's not Obama's fault ... Ooops! You couldn't let one that pass, could you?

However, I do agree with you in a way. GFE(forbidden topic). As long as black people and women are succeeding, fine white 'Merikins will want to kill them.

And your beloved Fox News will be right there to call a spade a thug...

People who then say he was mentally ill. People who excuse it. People who try to sweep it under the rug. Those are the people who keep the division alive. The truth is ugly and you don't want to see it, because it's uncomfortable. Too fucking bad.

Of course, he was a white supremacist terrorist killer, no argument. But...

Fox and the repubs have tried for years to get Obama, his administration and the MSM to call all the muslim terrorists and muslim terror attacks; muslim terrorists, and muslim acts of terror. And they refuse.

So now Fox and the repubs are playing the same game, twisting the events to promote their agenda and giving the libs a little dose of their own meds.

Doesn't make it right, but the only thing left to debate is which party started the dirty politics first?

its quite possible, given her type of cynical callousness coupled with her power and money greediness, the most overjoyed person in America concerning this event , other than other liberals if her ilk, is likely Hillary

To me it's a murder. I guess you can call it a hate crime or terrorist attack but it's still a murder with multiple victims. The incident is being politicized by the media and politicians who have a special interest in this type of incident. Dwelling on the racial features of this incident further divides this country along racial lines, and we should try to avoid that.

One human should not be a greater or lesser tragedy because they are a woman or a native american or a buddist. I think the terrorist comment was not so much intended to say this shooting was a terrorist attack as it was to point out the fox hypocrisy when compaired to other killings that the RW did want to lable "terrorist". Both side have become too egar to spin words in a very hypocritical way.
What shootings does Fox want to label as "terrorist" that haven't been labeled as "terrorist?" A list please or STFU.

On this point you are actually correct. And not limited to Chicago or to blacks. Lots of similar violence among groups that associate others as "different" regardless of skin color. Whether it is racial or ethnic or religious still leaves the victims dead.

It's bad enough to make things up in the first place as the OP did. But how can you keep spewing the same falsehoods after I just posted a video proving them to be false? Are you deaf, blind, dumb - or all 3?

Un-fucking-believable.

They are a bunch of privileged shitstains who probably have black 'friends' and so they couldn't possibly be racist.
