Dylan Storm Roof is a very disturbed young man. He’s the guy who shot up the church in Charleston, South Carolina. According to his uncle, he would sit at home oftentimes and was emotionally disturbed.

Cenk Uygur (The Young Turks) breaks it down. Should we have some sort of check on giving mentally troubled people firearms? Tell us what you think in the comments below.

The 21-year-old man suspected of fatally shooting nine people at a South Carolina church on Wednesday received a gun for his most recent birthday, his uncle said on Thursday.

Carson Cowles told Reuters and the New York Daily News that his nephew, Dylann Storm Roof, got a .45-caliber pistol from his father for his 21st birthday in April.

Roof is accused of opening fire at Charleston's Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, a historic black church, on Wednesday night. He was taken into custody on Thursday during a traffic stop in Shelby, North Carolina, about 245 miles from Charleston.
