It also seems kind of small given that Roof was caught and is in prison for life now. The more egregious examples are when the justice system fails and let's people go, it did not fail with Roof.
Quoting this for a new page.

Nah. The police forces across this country harbor nazis and don't do shit about it. Fuck'em.

It was apparently planned according to some reports and other nazi scum were seen telling him how to get away from the scene.

This is so terrifying. I can't imagine how anyone can justify that. How. Don't defend terrorism.

Because the people that make and enforce the laws are just as complicit in this white supremacy bullshit as the nazis and alt-right internet shitbags.

Most terrorist don't have a long term plan outside of carrying out their attack. Doubt he even thought about what he would do after.

Holy shit a police helicopter crashed now? Are they going to say it was shot down?

Probably unrelated, the NTSB is going to be notified. We won't know for sure what caused it for a year or two.

I have said this before:
If you hated minorities, had a clean record and wanted to have a career that allowed you to fuck with them with impunity, which line of work would you choose?
I'm not joking around either. The choice is obvious.

The police force is full of chucklefucks of any variety. Who else would want to be a cop in America, where every asshole also owns a gun?

Tough, cause they got the suspect in the car fleeing the scene. They can lie all they want, this should just be a warning why other people searching the net shouldn't pay much/any attention to them.

Word of advice for anyone who wants to find out more info relating to this. Ignore anything that doesn't come out of the mouth of a NTSB official.
Because they are fucking incredibly stupid, lack empathy, and can't process other perspectives. That is pretty much the long and short of it.

Well, look at the president. He just gave them the thumbs up today. The both sides argument and the real fuck you to everyone that wanted to condemn this, "we must cherish our history". Note he said that after people were rallying about being pissed because Robert E. Lee's statue is going to be removed.
Definitely this. They haven't released any info, and until they do there will surely be bullshit thrown around. All we know is that it crashed.

I'm not saying that every cop is a "chucklefuck" but what I am saying is, if you are white supremacist that wants to be paid to fuck with minorities with little to no repercussions for what you do, becoming a cop is a no brainer.

You know they have been advocating running into people blocking traffic for a while, right? It in no ways makes it right, but I can guaranteed that's going to be the defense used here.

Anytime the internet tries to get involved in a manhunt, they always get the wrong person.
I just. I am so sad for America.

Agreed, I'm just sayin', the gun problem exacerbates it.
You mean hours ago.

Zach's also changed the lyrics live to this
"Some of those that burn crosses are the same that hold office"
Works just as well today.
Already had some Trump supporter parroting about him in response to me, they'll just keep shouting his name and ignoring actual news reports when it comes out that the actual dude is nazi trash.

It seems obvious given he slammed into a car, but I've seen the point being made that with all the protesters in the street it was unlikely the guy could see those cars were there at all. Meaning he probably thought he was going plow through a shit ton more people.

I can't believe the presidents response to this is both sides are bad and need to come together because 'Merica.
I mean I can believe it but fuck.

Not trying to derail anything here, but you know that isn't what happened, right? They did not stop at Burger King on the way to the station. As they were waiting to transfer custody for about 6 hours, he said he was hungry and they sent an officer to get him something to eat. Which, by the way, is a requirement when you have someone in custody for an extended period of time. They still get basic human rights of bathroom breaks, food and water.
I'm not saying that black people always get the same treatment because they obviously don't, but the narrative that the police stopped and drove Dylan through the Burger King drive thru is false, which could be verified by a 5 second Google search.

Face of the attacker in the car
Seems like a middle aged male. Ridiculous the internet was going after a teenager. The only thing I can think is the car was sold and registration not updated. Either way, the police will know and say once it's investigated.

Perhaps he's wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane.
Dang, apparently my brother's friend had his ankle broken in all this. :/

What a surreal scene. Too bad no one blocked the perpetrator's only escape route with another car. Hopefully someone out of all those people photographed his face and/or license plate number.
Edit: Welp, there it is lol. Hope he or she is caught and locked behind bars for fucking life.

Question. And I'm genuinely curious.
How would people feel if someone who was licensed to carry started to open fire on the car and killed the driver? What if they weren't licenced to carry? How do you think people would react to that scenario?

Can't really tell in that Photo he looks vaguely like Colonel sanders but you're more likely correct with the white polo.
