Thanks for bringing this up in the LIBERAL thread, Adub.
One key part of this horrific scheme -- the weapon -- came in April, when Roof bought a .45-caliber handgun at a Charleston gun store, the two law enforcement officials told Perez and Bruer from CNN, the first network to report this development. His grandfather says that Roof was given "birthday money" and that the family didn't know what Roof did with it. http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/19/us/charles...ting-main/
It's not clear to me whether Roof bought the gun before or after his felony arrest.
But, looks like the uncle was wrong, misquoted or lying yesterday when he said the dad gave the actual gun to Roof for his birthday.
