surely someone knows where this murderous terrorist is!

finally confirmed and ID'd.

Are they sure it is the right person? It would be terrible to make a mistake and target an innocent look-alike.

i love how everyone wants to be absolutely sure of the white terrorist when police will walk up and fire upon a 13 year old black boy on sight.

Huh? Are you the same person who keeps spouting off about how all criminals are crazy so we shouldn't call them "thugs", how police officers are bad, and how all white people are dysfunctional? You sound unhinged.

i'm am not the same person. i am not unhinged. thanks.

In the picture, his jacket has patches showing the Apartheid-era South African flag and the Rhodesian flag. This guy seems to have all kinds of race issues.

So, wait, the killer is African-American? Or just African? Or an American who yearns for colonial Africa?

Whut? No. Just a racist southerner who studied a little history and sided with the apartheid regimes in s.Africa and Zimbabwe (previously Rhodesia).

That is not an excuse -- dude sounds crazy, VA tech dude was crazy. Just because institutionalized racism exists and paints alleged black criminals as typical of all black people does not make any of these other nuts any less crazy. The two things are not mutually exclusive. I am a black woman who very clearly sees racism and crazy ALL AT THE SAME DAMN TIME.

The suspects comments to a witness seem to clearly indicate this was a racist attack.

You can be crazy and racist. Why is this impossible to see?

Sorry if I am not making it all about race for you. As I said, the person is likely mentally ill and his delusions centered around either someone in the church or black people. His comments about race, that he told one of the victims, sound very paranoid. And for the record, mental illness effects all races.

See -- you got it all wrong. Yes, he is crazy. Yes he was spewing racist garbage which is likely a manifestation of his craziness. Yes, the media and very much society paints alleged black criminals very differently than white ones. This guy and other mentally ill white folk get to be the crazy that they are, black folks are usually just "thugs".
This society has many ills, one does not cancel out the other. One just makes the other worse. Get a clue!

Not those PPs. Right. Several people on this thread and others have pointed out that mass killings are portrayed in the media as mentally ill white guys while other races are portrayed as thugs and criminals. I've got that clue. Where I'm a bit behind, though, is that mass shooters all seem to actually be mentally ill white guys.

The along Island Railway mass killer was not white, nor were the Beltway serial killers, Mohammed and Malvo.

Right, but that's so outside the norm that during the sniper attacks, everyone was on the lookout for a white guy.

I don't think saying this guy was mentally ill is an "excuse." It's reality. The man didn't just walk in shooting up the place because black people were in it. He sat in that church for an HOUR watching these people and somehow still didn't fundamentally get that they are PEOPLE. How can a person even think about doing that if they aren't mentally ill? It's just too f*cked up. I would say the same if he were black and did this to a church full of white people. If the man in the latter scenario is described by the media or whoever as a "thug," that still doesn't change the FACT that he is in all probability mentally ill.

-because some of his friends are black? That is rather odd. Doesn't make sense.

if its about race or race is involved, people have to talk about it and its easier to discuss the broad problem of mental issue as opposed to race. admitting a racial element to it means you admit we still have racial issues in the country and to some, people think that the race issue is primarily a figment of folks imagination as opposed to real.

+1,0000,000

he would have to have said i'm a racist piece of shit and wear it on his forehead in a taped manifesto for it to be believed straight away. incredible!

I believe the excuse was that his parents pushed him too hard. Seriously.

Actually, the Virginia Tech Shooter had a history of mental illness and was treated by one of Virginia's county clinics. His parents sent him off to college and hoped for the best, but he went off his meds and the rest is history.

But before his mental illness was confirmed, were the initial speculations, tiger parenting broke him? If so, it is still a negative racial stereotyping against a non-white mass shooter.

These are both associated with Neo-nazi/aryan brotherhood and white pride causes (and KKK of course).

There is a lot of info about domestic hate groups on the SPLC website. Crazy scary stuff out there (much of it in the south).

Just got an alert on my phone from WaPo that suspect has been ID'd? No link to article on their app yet..

Yes. I'm hopeful that we can all agree that a young man wearing white supremacist gear, assassinating an elected official in the South's oldest Black church is, in fact, engaging in racist terrorism.

When black guys or hispanic guys seem to shoot up shit its for an economic reason that kind of is rational.

When white people shoot shit up, it is for batshit crazy reasons.

Why are white people so crazy and dysfunctional?
