Come on Deck! Don't you know this was an attack on religion not race. At least that's what FAUX entertainment is saying this morning. Peace to the people of Charleston this morning.

Tell us more about how racism is dead.
It's surely a terrible act, but how do you know it's racism? If you can prove me wrong, please do. But the media was jumping all over this "hate crime" before the race of the shooter was even confirmed. I know that more information has come out, but from the moment it happened it was a hate crime. How about just a terrible crime? Is that not enough. You've got to prove it's a hate crime to call it a hate crime. Like I said, please prove me wrong if I'm wrong.
"You rape our women and are taking over our country, you have to go" So without a doubt that's racism? Who is he talking about?
Why do you think somebody would wear the flags of Apartheid-era South Africa and Rhodesia in their self-selected Facebook profile photo? How do you think they want the world to perceive them?
What is wrong with your life, anal cutie, that you think this is a fun trollololol topic? Have you tried hot yoga? There's a too soon rule for this type of thing you know, even on the internet.
Read my first post. I hope this feral dies slow. It just bothers me that it was called a hate crime from the very first media report, when I guarantee you they didn't know the facts that we now know. I don't know enough about South Africa or Rhodesia to accurately comment or make an opinion.
