White Group Which Motivated Charleston Church Shooter Denied Reservations To Host Conference!

The Council of Conservative Citizens (CCC), a group cited by Dylann Roof as inspiration for his racially-motivated lethal attack on Charleston church are being denied reservations to host conference, as no hotel wants to be identified with them.

Reports has it that the organization planned  a weekend conference that included a “meet and greet” and other events at the Nashville and some other hotels .

Roof  in his report stated “The first website I came to was the Council of Conservative Citizens"....

“There were pages upon pages of these brutal black on White murders. I was in disbelief. At this moment I realized that something was very wrong. How could the news be blowing up the Trayvon Martin case while hundreds of these black on White murders got ignored?” he said. 

There have been countless reported cases of baseless 'White/ Black and Black/ White' murders, and a host of others gone unreported. 

It should be about time we come to the understanding that aside the differences in skin tone, there are no other features that makes any particular race more 'human' than the other. Let us learn to co-habit and respect the sacred gift of 'LIFE' which no one has the power to 'GIVE', hence no audacity to 'TAKE'.
