Soooo I'm confused would he have said the same thing about the shooting that happened in Connecticut with the kids or the movie shooting a few years ago? #Repost @akanundrum γ»γ»γ» (CNN) A South Carolina lawmaker who voted against opening debate about whether to remove the Confederate flag from state grounds said his constituents want the flag to remain, and seemed to question why the victims in the Charleston shooting didn't do more to defend themselves. . Chumley added: "I don't know what the answer was but I know it's really horrible for nine people to be shot, and I understand that he reloaded his gun during the process. That's upsetting." Confederate flag still flies as slain pastor to be honored at S.C. Capitol Chumley also said the whole flag issue was settled in his mind in 2000, when lawmakers voted to place the flag at a Confederate war memorial instead of atop the State House. #AKAnundrum #Charleston #YouHeardHim #YouSawHim #WaitedTheirTurnToBeShot
