Who or what murdered those 9 innocent Americans?

At what point is it going to take the American public to come together and realize that politics is not only dividing us as a country, but is a form of schizophrenia that would make a Martian scratch his six heads in confusion?

An obvious mentally deranged 21-year-old racist sat with his victims for an hour, spoke with them, accepted their Christian hospitality, and then methodically shot them, reloading several times in this horrific act.

Before Roof began shooting, a parishioner confronted him and attempted to calm him. According to Syvia Stevenson Johnson, cousin of the slain pastor, Rev. Clementa Pinckney, Roof allegedly shouted: "No. You've raped our women and you've stolen and you've taken over the country, so no, this must be done."

Still, there are many liberals who don't blame the shooter; they blame the gun. Some blame the Confederate flag for the killing of 9 African-American Bible study attendees. 

It's a form of schizophrenia suffered by the left that has gone undiagnosed since Obama took the White House and made the office of the president "too cool for school."

Objects don't "do" and thus cannot be assigned blame for the act of a human hand. Guns, knives, ice picks, scissors, hammers, and swords are tools that can serve a good or bad purpose but that fully depends on the human being using it. Hell, even icicles can kill, so maybe liberals should embrace global warming and save the lives of the innocent victims whose killers saw the Alfred Hitchcock movie where an icicle was used as the murder weapon and the evidence was destroyed by melting.

But no matter what happens, liberals will try to "never let a good crisis go to waste," as Winston Churchill said and Rahm Emmanuel repeated.

Before the first African-American victim was laid to rest, Obama blamed gun control. In other words, he blamed the gun for the massacre. Somehow he believes that if there were even more strict gun control laws, Dylann Roof would have complied with it and wouldn't have broken the law. (I think I just heard a 6-headed Martian laugh.)

But the most serious schizophrenic reaction, if one is to take the purveyor of this crap seriously, is the article by Ta-Nehisi Coates article in The Atlantic. It's the liberal way of blaming the racist shooting on all white people, not merely Roof.

"Coates' military utility cap has killed more innocent victims than ISIS"

The article focuses on the South Carolina statehouse where the Confederate flag flies. Coates writes:

The Confederate flag's defenders often claim it represents "heritage not hate." I agree--the heritage of White Supremacy was not so much birthed by hate as by the impulse toward plunder. Dylann Roof plundered nine different bodies last night, plundering nine different families of an original member, plundered nine different communities of a singular member. An entire people are poorer for his action. The flag that Roof embraced, which many South Carolinians embrace, does not stand in opposition to this act--it endorses it. That the Confederate flag is the symbol of white supremacists is evidenced by the very words of those who birthed it.

Our new government is founded upon exactly the opposite idea; its foundations are laid, its corner-stone rests upon the great truth that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery subordination to the superior race is his natural and normal condition. This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth . . . 

And Coates blathers on about how Roof honored the flag with his sacrifice--which he chickened out of at the end. Coates assumes that Roof is even aware of Confederate history and has the cerebral synapses to symbolically express it in his crazed actions. 

Roof has the mental capacity of a wall. He clearly is a racist and he clearly hates the successes of the African-American community. But to blame a flag? That is sooo MSNBC. 

We still have racism in our country--there is no doubt about that because racism is part of the human condition, albeit the exception, rather than the rule. The race hustlers, like Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson stand to gain by bringing race into the equation of every interaction between blacks and whites. President Obama uses race for political gain. 

Mr. Coates should know better than to blame a flag.

But maybe Coates does know better and simply has the need to express his own hatred for white Americans. Or maybe he's just out trying to make a buck off his copious vocabulary and racist Sharptongue.
