The trial for this kid is going to be a complete circus.
It's sad that he may actually have supporters through all of this.
The only way he escapes the death penalty is via
a predominantly white jury who buy an insanity defense.
It's doubtful, though, that there are strong grounds for pleading insanity.
His thought process leading up to, and following, the murders
appears to be clear and calculated. At least, at this early stage.
Roof seems to be a product of the hatred that the racist culture breeds.
Whether the majority of his exposure to this was through
friends and family, or surfing the internet, I don't know.
Whichever way it came about, it's pretty damned sad.

Thank you, doctor, for your professional opinion. Will you be testifying as an expert witness at the trial?

Why is it that the only discussions EVER are when it pertains to a white person? This guy is clearly a racist and mentally deranged. What about the blacks that participate in the "knockout punch" of women, whites, Jews (Brooklyn), etc... I have yet to see an assailant who was not black; not once. I have yet to see a black victim. So while these are definitely race based crimes and are clearly racist by nature, no mention is made of the race of the perpetrator/victim by the mainstream media.
This is not to mean that Roof should not be executed for what is clearly a race based hate crime. I hope he dies a miserable death, whether by electrocution or in jail of old age.
The point is racism is not exclusive to whites.

Nice to see the gov is right on top of things.
Like that flag had anything at all to do with this.
Typical liberal - rather feel good than actually accomplish anything.

Roof was waving on his web site. I think I can safely say he was not doing it to show his "southern pride". Although the more I hear southerners talk about the more it sounds like out and out racism to me.

Well now, you should move if you are offended.
Oh, wait, you don't live there, do you.
So it is really none of your business, is it?
Weren't you talking about state's right yesterday?

Anything and everything that is offensive to blacks should be removed. Anything and everything offensive to all other races including whites should be removed. It's all relative, and it's all painfully stupid!!
Keep up the good work pissing off more and more white people by trying to control what everyone looks at and believes in.
Yeah, racism is alive and well. Who's fault do you believe it is?

We have Republican Gov. Nikki Haley, a white woman, and Republican Sen. Tim Scott, a black man, telling the world all about right and wrong, compassion and civility amidst a horrible tragedy.
On the other side is one US President Barry Obama, who uses the vulgar, horrible and racist N-word liberally in discussing the same tragedy.
The N-word is very much more a symbol of racism and hatred than the Confederate flag is, so once again Barry Obama shows his true 'color'.

You are wrong! There is not two cent worth of difference between the Confederate flag and the "N" word if you want express a racist belief.
If Nikki Haley had half a clue, She would done what she did today last week. I think the only reason she has sudden got so brave is that several businesses explained the facts of life to her. South Carolina has a lot of work to do if it wants to get rid of its racist image. Right now any company that a number of valuable Black employees is not going to move there.
