(65,616 posts)12. I was thinking about adding that too, yes he will somehow be the victim in all this.
Watch Foxnews do their best to dig up anything they can on the Church members, even to the point of outright lying and making up a scare story from whole cloth.
And their racist audience will lap it up like the good dogs they are.

Everything Known About Charleston Shooting Suspect Dylann Roof
<snip>
"John Mullins, who went to high school with Roof, told The Daily Beast that he remembers him as being kind of wild.
He used drugs heavily a lot, Mullins said. It obviously harder than marijuana. He was like a pill popper, from what I understood. Like Xanax, and stuff like that.
White Knoll High School had a mix of black and white students. Mullins says they occasionally mixed, and the school had a lot of preps, a little bit of gang members, and a lot of outcasts. But Roof wasnt one of the outcasts, Mullins said.
Nor did Roof make a habit of spouting racist messages.
I never heard him say anything, but just he had that kind of Southern pride, I guess some would say. Strong conservative beliefs, he said. He made a lot of racist jokes, but you dont really take them seriously like that. You dont really think of it like that.
But now, "the things he said were kind of not joking," Mullins added."

It sure as fuck is a message.
