A lot in here that I don't understand but I questioned whether a ninth grade dropout did indeed write the "manifesto" attributed to Roof.

A Russian connection? Nothing surprises me these days. Mostly I want to know who took the picture of Roof that were posted online.

You might wanna go back and reread his manifesto as it it littered with spelling errors. Just sayin...

If there are no misspellings in this text -- and on a quick scan, I found none -- then Roof, a high-school dropout, didn't write it.

Shhh, don't give them any pointers!

I did a search on Dylann Roof. Lots of articles from liberals.

One of the big issues is that the police gave him a hamburger.

There seems to be a question of how many people were at the prayer meeting. Nine deceased with one survivor and dipshirt makes it 11. Anybody see a different number?

Dipshirt asked the survivor if she was hit. Strange.

Arresting Officers were three Americans of European descent and one Officer is an American of African descent.

Dipshirt looked pretty relaxed and so did the police.

The Times goes on: Benjamin Wareing, a blogger in Britain, said the writings were nearly identical to blog entries that Mr. Roof posted several months ago on a Tumblr page. Mr. Wareing was preparing to write an essay on the dangers of Tumblr and troubled youths, so he took notes on the writings.

A by commission blogger in England just happened across an America guy's site and just happened to take notes on the writings and this troubled American youth just happens to go on a killing spree shortly after. While I'm not on board with Roof being a government patsy at the time of the killings, the government is certainly using the tragedy to forward their agenda in any way they can. If that means them ordering Amazon to ban the sale of flags or creating fake manifestos at this late date, then it nothing more than letting no crisis be wasted.

https://nextgenerationblogs.wordpress.com/2015/06/21/how-i-screwed-with-the-biggest-news-outlet-in-the-world/ Benjamin Wareing - I wanted to perform a little experiment with the help of my friend, Sadrak Ramirez, to see if a reporter does adequate fact-checking of information given. Our target event occurred around; Dylann Storm – The Charleston Shooter. A test with the sole purpose of reporting on inadequate fact checking.

It was all a little game.

I’ve taught at the university level for almost 20 years. My first thought after reading it last week was that he did not write it.

WTF?

Here I would also like to touch on the idea of a Norhtwest Front. I think this idea is beyond stupid. Why should I for example, give up the beauty and history of my state to go to the Norhthwest?

Guy couldn't even spell "North". And "Unlike many White naitonalists." And "But when we lern."

Plus there are capitalization and punctuation problems. "Iqs" for "IQs" -- I had trouble with that myself, but could see his version wasn't quite right. He also doesn't capitalize "jews" and "hispanics," but that may be a political thing done on purpose.

Point is, a high school dropout who was really interested in some topic and had done some reading about it -- even if the topic was odious and the reading horrible -- might be able to string words together fairly well. If it's not completely incoherent, it's not necessarily a hoax.
