Cartoonist Gary Varvel: The roots of Racism in Dylann Roof

Gary Varvel

Matthew 15:19 says, "For out of the heart come evil thoughts--murder..."

Dylann Roof said he "almost didn't go through with it because everyone was so nice to him." The power of love nearly changed his evil heart.

But in the end, it's clear that the roots of racism obviously ran very deep within Dylann Roof. He confessed to murdering nine black people during their Bible study. Why? Because he said he wanted to start a race war. And out of Dylann's heart came evil.
