[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rick Perry has chimed in.  It was "an accident". Well, that is a relief.

Again right in the article: [quote]He may have been referring to a theory the conspiracy website Infowars posted about on Thursday that postulated Roof may have been taking a drug called suboxone, which supposedly causes personalities to change and prompt violent outbursts in its users.

Perry also called the incident “a crime of hate.”[/quote]

Again, did you even watch the interview or read the article.

I agree accident was a poor choice of words, but in context (if you watch the interview) he was referring to any time there is an incident with the gun. He didn't say the 9 people in charleston were accidentally killed. He stated his opinion that he feels even if you take away all the guns, crimes like this will happen, because of their motivation.

In the interview Perry called the act, evil and cowardly. He continually called it out as a hate crime. [/quote]
