The younger sister of Dylann Roof, who was sentenced to die for murdering nine black churchgoers in Charleston, South Carolina, was arrested Wednesday at her school for allegedly bringing weapons to campus and posting to Snapchat a message police said "caused alarm."

Morgan Roof, 18, was arrested at A.C. Flora High School in Columbia, South Carolina, after school officials told police that she had a knife, pepper spray and marijuana in her possession, the Richland County Sheriff's Department said in a statement.

She was charged with one count of marijuana possession and two counts of carrying a weapon on school grounds, according to the statement.

The RCSD also said it was also aware of a Snapchat post by Morgan Roof that "caused alarm to the student body."

"Your walking out of the allowed time of 17min, they are letting you do this, nothing is gonna change what tf you think it's gonna do? I hope it's a trap and y'all get shot we know it's fixing to be nothing but black people walkin out anyway," the post said, according to several media outlets.

What a family. Racism must be taught at the dinner table.

1. Racist trash parents, I'd bet.

They need to be in jail too, only raising a terrorist isn't a crime there, as long as you are white.

7. Contrary to the popular notion, racism is alive and thriving in much of the South.

I have numerous relatives in the South and what is said privately and what is said publically is like night and day or maybe white and black would be more appropriate.

4. You are not born as a racist

You are taught to be one!

5. "nothing is gonna change what tf you think it's gonna do?"

is always said by people who are worried something is going to change. It's working. These students are making a difference and forcing lawmakers to act.

I'm glad she didn't have a gun.

6. Oh no, no, no. The folks on my town's FB page say it's because of bullying

Once we fix bullying, then we can maybe fix the gun issue. But right now, we have to be nice. I assume she was bullied then. Bullied into saying such horrible things.
