Dylann Roof, the white gunman who killed nine black people in the 2015 Charleston church massacre, is one step closer to execution after a federal appeals court in Virginia ruled he’s eligible to receive the death penalty.
“His crimes qualify him for the harshest penalty that a just society can impose,” a three-judge panel for the Richmond-based Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals wrote, according to The State newspaper.
Roof was convicted in 2017 of slaughtering nine parishioners at the Emanuel AME Church in Charleston after planning the attack for months in an effort to start a race war in the US.

He gets the death penalty… but the communist weather underground members get life and then paroled by political cronies.

First of all: I don't give a rat's hindquarters what race of the shooter...or the victims...is.
Second: Of course he should get the hot squat.Why is this even a source of contention???

I’m a death penalty opponent, but, a case like this one, leads me to sit down and be quiet for a while.

// “killed nine black people”
Not just “people”, but “black people”
Someone should hook some wires up to Martin Luther King Jr. I’m sure he’s producing enough electricity now for a fairly large town.
