* Dylann Roof liked a girl then she started dating a black man, cousin said
* It 'pushed him over the edge', he 'started listening to white power music'
* Roof is charged with murdering nine black people in a Charleston church
* Since his arrest, it has emerged he wrote a racist manifesto to 'kill blacks'
* In it he predicts a 'racial war', and says that East Asians could be 'allies' while some South Americans are 'worth saving'
* Said Jews count as whites but wants to 'destroy Jewish identity'
* Wished he could 'turn every Jew blue' to emphasize that they are different
* Also contained stash of photographs showing Roof pointing a gun, posing with a Confederate flag and burning the Stars and Stripes.

Dylann Roof's cousin claims the suspected killer became racist after a girl he liked started dating a black man.

The 21-year-old is charged with murdering nine African American churchgoers in a Charleston bible study group on Wednesday night.

Since his arrest, it has emerged Roof harbored strong feelings against black people, had Confederate plates on his car, plotted to paint all Jews blue, and reportedly told friends that somebody needed to 'save the white race'.

According to Scott Roof, his cousin, these feeling were vitalized when Dylann's love interest became involved with a black man.

'He kind of went over the edge when a girl he liked starting dating a black guy two years back,' Scott told The Intercept, adding that he also 'started listening to that white power music stuff.'(continued)

This was one of my first thoughts - “Bet he was shunned by a girl who liked black guys.”

It’s never really about race with these whack-jobs. He’s just a loser who needed something onto which to pin his mental illness.

Funny....that was my first thought on his motivation, because during the murders he cited “rape”.

Poor thing...she'll probably wind up having an abortion at some point.

Dear Gray,

In the, um, “cinematographic history’ of such things, there has never been, on record, anything that would resemble a ‘short walk’, has there?

The KID in question couldn’t rip the paper bag he could be inside of, neither....
