'I'm coming to see you real soon': Charleston killer's father says he feels unsafe 'after receiving threatening phone calls from the Black Panther Party'

The father of Dylann Roof has told cops that he is the victim of never-ending threatening phone calls in the wake of his son's arrest for the Charleston church massacre in which nine people were killed.

Franklin Bennett Roof, 52, called police to his home in Columbia, South Carolina, at noon on Friday because he was afraid for his life, according to police records.

'The victim states that individuals claiming to be with the Black Panther Party have called several times and left messages stating, "I'm coming to see you real soon, buddy boy",' records released by the New York Daily News say.

'The victim states that another individual claiming to be from the Nation of Islam called and stated that they wanted to interview him and make sure his whole family was there. The victim states he believes that these phone calls are implied threats.'

He just needs to tell these racists punks, $50,000 up front for an one hour interview...

...at the local police station...

He seems like a POS father, but even good parents kids go off the rails...

Threatening the guy isn't going to bring back one soul...

I'm going to guess these callers are cranks who may not necessarily be affiliated with the New Black Panthers or Nation of Islam. Who knows? They could even be white.

Unfortunately, a tragedy like this brings out all the kooks and nutcases. There are a lot of people with a vested interest in fanning the flames and bringing on that race war. It's not just this man's son.

IF!! As the news has SUGGESTED, it is the FATHER who bought the KID the handgun, so now, he is reaping what he has sown, in full knowledge.

Great idea, keep reinforcing negative stereotypes. That is the best way to get past the path of racial divide the racist-in-chief has been leading us down for 7 years.

I hope I don't need the /Sarc tag.

Change your number and move Homer.

I do feel by raising a bad seed and possibly arming this maniac he may be partly responsible for this tragedy.

Dangerous Lunatics used to be put away for their own safety and that of the community. Liberals made the asylums free them. And we pay and pay. In Colorado, in Connecticut the looney in AZ who shot Gifford

We are a stupid species who do not learn from our mistakes

The kid was using methamphetamine and cocktails of drugs for how many years?

Is it overly judgemental of me to suspect “dad” didn’t spend much time with the child he fathered?

There is that whole reaping and sowing thing.

Now multiply that by the millions of fatherless feral ‘minorities’. What a friggin mess, we have generated by ‘helping the poor’ and giving them welfare

The father did NOT buy the punk a gun. He bought it himself with money his folks gave him for his birthday.

He seems like a POS father

And you know this personally? Please tell me how you know this. I hope you're not basing it on the press or the freak kid of his. How do YOU know this man is a POS?

IT IS NOT TRUE!! (yes, I am screaming at you) The Father did not buy him the gun, the kid bought it himself. Got it?
I am so fed up with this lie being circulated by “reporters” who don’t bother to fact check it for themselves. Then good intentioned people, like I am sure that you are, repeat it.

Don’t ever believe anything the press says the first few days after a tragedy like this. It’s all Bullsh!t.

Of course I don't know him

Hers'a clue from the article...This is a UK paper which is normally spot on their reporting...

This information comes just a day after it was revealed that Franklin Roof bought his son the gun he allegedly used for the massacre. He is also said to have subjected his wife Paige to a ‘pattern of control and mental manipulation’ that ended with a vicious assault. Franklin Roof is said to have shredded Paige’s self esteem during their ten-year marriage. He also kept her in a 'virtual prison' by calling her several times a day and demanding to know what she was doing.

I would assume there are police records easily verified...as to stop any libel lawsuits

Yes, I know typically, husbands who vicious assault and subject their wife's in a pattern of control and mental manipulation’ are fantastic fathers and great role models ...(rolling eyes)

...and I did use a qualifier as the word "seems" was used in my post..

Did you read post 14? This man did not buy the gun for this kid.

Don’t judge him until the truth finally starts to come out.
