CNN's Mike Rowe: Banning Flags Won't Do Anything On Racism
Mike Rowe is the host of CNN’s Somebody’s Gotta Do It – a show about the unique jobs that someone has to do. Maybe CNN should do a spin-off show called Someone’s Gotta Educate Them keeping Rowe as its host. With his many tweets and Facebook posts that have gone viral – usually telling people why and how they are wrong – it would be another perfect show for him.
Rowe has educated the public on the Navy Seabees, having a strong work ethic, why someone would vote republican, why hard work is important…and now he can add schooling liberals on the history of the Confederate Flag. Many take to Rowe’s Facebook page to ask his thoughts on many things – including whatever controversy happens to be the hot topic at the time. Just the other day, someone asked Rowe about his stance on the confederate flag and why those who like the flag shouldn’t be labeled racists.

Friend Says Suspect In South Carolina Church Massacre Railed About Blacks
CHARLESTON, S.C. — In recent weeks, Dylann Storm Roof reconnected with a childhood buddy he hadn’t seen in five years and started railing about the Trayvon Martin case, about black people “taking over the world” and about the need for someone to do something about it for the sake of “the white race,” the friend said Thursday.
On Thursday, Roof, 21, was arrested in the shooting deaths of nine people during a prayer meeting at a historic black church in Charleston — an attack decried by stunned community leaders and politicians as a hate crime.
In the hours after the Wednesday night bloodbath, a portrait began to take shape of Roof as someone with racist views and at least two recent run-ins with the law. On his Facebook page, the young white man wore a jacket with the flags of the former white-racist regimes of South Africa and Rhodesia.

WaPo: Charleston, Dylann Roof And The Racism Of Millennials
 |
| Source: NBC |
America should be shaken to its very core by what happened in Charleston.
The gruesome massacre of nine people at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, a historically black church in Charleston, S.C., may amount to the worst racially motivated terror attack of our generation and a deeply violent reminder that racism and white supremacy continue to course through America’s veins. One cannot help but draw comparisons to the firebombing of a black church in Birmingham, Ala., almost 52 years ago.
The shooting suspect in Charleston has been identified as Dylann Roof, a white 21-year-old. He was arrested (peacefully, one should add) at a traffic stop. Many will argue about what words we will use to describe Roof, whether he should be described as a mentally disturbed kid (a description rarely applied when the alleged perpetrator isn’t a white male) or a rational adult responsible for his alleged actions. His age matters, but not for the reasons you may think.
