The Charleston church shooting, also known as the Charleston church massacre, was an anti-black mass shooting and hate crime that occurred on June 17, 2015, in Charleston, South Carolina. Nine people were killed, and one was injured, during a Bible study at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, the oldest black church in the Southern United States. Among the fatalities was the senior pastor, state senator Clementa C. Pinckney. All ten victims were African Americans.

That white supremacist was not charged as a terrorist either.

This is logically consistent if you view things from a capitalist christian theocratic perspective.

DA's and whoever else has their prosecutorial hands on this are always going apeshit with charges. Stealing a Twinkie from the gas station will get you 8 counts of theft-by-taking and, shit, probably terrorism too if they think it'll either get you to plea to something and / or they think they can make their name with the case and screw you for living.

They're supposed to be finding and delivering justice, but it's always just cruel idiots trying to prove they're big, important people. Well. Not always but most often.

That, and they're gonna try and get him sent to supermax if he's convicted, just to kill his spirit.

So, it works? Good to know.
