“Do not lose time on daily trivialities. Do not dwell on petty detail. For all of these things melt away and drift apart within the obscure traffic of time. Live well and live broadly. You are alive and living now. Now is the envy of all of the dead.” ~ Emily3, World of Tomorrow
Words to live by.
I think you guys are going to extreme lengths to pretend to be race-blind.
The victims were all inside the church, they'd gathered there for a service.Emanuel AME Church has been a landmark in Charleston for more than 150 years. Often called, “Mother Emanuel,” it is one of the largest and oldest black congregations in the region, according to its Web site. The pastor, Clementa Pinckney, who is also a state senator, was in the church at the time of the shooting, a Statehouse Democratic caucus member told the Post and Courier. His condition is not yet known.

....I'm trying to put this delicately.
What I'm trying to say, is that like a trial (which is already underway, this public trial so to say), everything has to be proven, with evidence and corresponding witness testimony.
Sure we can have an opinion, but if we're going to go around 'convicting' people and treating conclusion as authoritative fact, there is a process for that, and we should at least recognize that we should abide by that process.

Senator was the pastor apparently. When if they catch the guy he'll be said to have some kind of mood disorder.
And they'll put up a picture of him at prom or graduation of some sort. He'll be such a nice guy. Nobody ever would expect...
