Pratt: Gunman Targeted Black Church Because They Were ‘Anti-Gun…Liberal Democrats’

Posted by | July 7, 2015 21:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics


Larry Pratt of Gun Owners of America made his reprehensible comments on a gun-oriented radio show.

In an interview with Armed America Radio that was posted online last week, Pratt doubled down, claiming that the shooter, Dylann Roof, targeted a church “populated by liberals” and pastored by “Mr. Anti-Gun” because he knew his victims would be unarmed.

“Since this particular church was pastored by a state senator who was Mr. Anti-Gun,” he said, “then it became pretty obvious that yep, that was a gun-free zone, a bunch of liberal Democrats in there, and the dirtbag that struck, I think knew exactly what he was doing. There’d be plenty of black churches that he could have gone into, and he probably could have met effective resistance, but he went to one where it would be known to be populated by liberals, and then he had open season.”

      It’s all backlash from having two bad weeks in a row.

    So this psychopath Pratt justifies the murders of these nine innocent victims. Egad, what a terrible person he is.

    • whatthe46 July 7th, 2015 at 21:54

      all racist and bigots justify the murders of the innocent when racist bigots commit them.

      He had his fingers crossed real hard behind his back while telling his lies.

    Not every conservative is an ignorant a$$.

    But every ignorant a$$ is a conservative.

      Although it is not true that all conservatives are stupid people, it is true that most stupid people are conservative.

    LOL blacks anti-gun? ROFL

    • whatthe46 July 8th, 2015 at 03:34

      don’t hit your head any harder than you have rolling on the floor fool.

  8. The Original Just Me July 8th, 2015 at 00:04

    WOW ! that is news. Roof said outright that he went in there to kill Blacks. He has said nothing about Liberals, Anti-Gun, or Democrats. but what does he know, he’s just the killer. It is of note that that particular Black Church is also the most popular Black Church around that area. That gives the killer lots of publicity. Oh, let’s not forget that Roof is also a Flag Waving, Racist, Right-Wing, Flaming, Conservative with an illegally owned gun. I guess this Pratt Guy is just another Propaganda Spreading, Lying Republican. They sure do like to twist things around to hide the truth.

    If you drop off one “T” from his last name, you get an accurate description of ol’ Larry.

    This guy needs to shut the hell up, people should be able to worship in a church without packing heat. He attacked that church, according to his manifesto, to kill blacks since he is racist. He could not go to the hood since his ass would have been blown away. Not because of politics and then say they were weak for forgiving this terrorist but if they would have fought back, then they would have been called all the names in the book. Can’t win no matter what we do in the right’s eyes! SMDH

      “Can’t win no matter what we do in the right’s eyes!” i call it the “wrong” by the way. everything else, on point.

  12. Larry Schmitt July 8th, 2015 at 05:34

    An ignoramus like Roof doesn’t go after people because of their gun politics. He had only one thing on his mind, and that was the color of their skin. When will people stop trying to find some other “justification” for this tragedy?

  13. rg9rts July 8th, 2015 at 06:29

    what a wingnut…amazing how they can try to spin anything to fit their narrow view of the world

  14. Chris July 8th, 2015 at 07:11

    Their being black had nothing to do with it. Disregard everything Roof said and did before the shooting. Yep, no racial component to the motive. Move along.

    Imagine the size of his kiddie porn collection??

  16. Hirightnow July 8th, 2015 at 07:56

    WRONG…either way, he’s a crazy gun-wielding nutjob,but WRONG!

  17. AnthonyLook July 8th, 2015 at 17:19

    Racist’s contorted denials that they don’t even believe.

  18. Mike July 8th, 2015 at 17:43

    Well, at least he waited til the bodies were buried before trashing the victims and gunsplain to the rest of us how they brought this on themselves…usually this kind of diarrhea starts to flow out of their mouths before they wash away the blood stains on the floor…

    When are these preachers and 85 year old women going to learn…if you’re not packing, it’s your own fault when you’re killed.
