You were the one throwing out accusations against members here for expressing "exact same opinions" as this manifesto.
I take it from your response that you actually do not have quotes to offer up in support of your nasty statement about members here.
You made a claim that you can't back up so you need to apologize for painting the entire site as "extremist" if you can't back up your "opinion" with actual quotes that you assert reflect the same ideology as the writer of the manifesto.

You can hold any opinion you wish and you can have whatever "feelings" make you feel good about yourself but you can't throw out accusations like that without backing up your accusations with actual evidence.
That's what rational, critical thinking adults do.

It's the truth. It's something you observe even just in passing. No one is obligated to dig through posts to prove it to you.

I'm asking to prove your accusation but you have refused to pull up even one quote from a poster here holding those "exact same" views.
I maintain that he didn't write it and I have serious doubts that he had facilities to post to it after he was arrested. I have no idea who the author was but it has all the hallmarks of a "doctored up" document.
I will not stand for another news cycle of ‘poor little boy gone wrong because of mental illness/dysfunctional family/drug use etc’ while victims like Trayvon Martin and Eric Garner are painted as thugs and criminals,” said Emma Quangel, one of the two pseudonymous sleuths who found Roof’s site.

The term derives from the fact that the divisions within the communist movement first arose when the Soviet Union sent tanks into communist Hungary in 1956, to crush an attempt to establish an alternative version of communism which was not embraced by the Russians. Most communists outside the eastern bloc opposed this action and criticised the Soviet Union. The "tankies" were those who said "send the tanks in". The epithet has stuck because tankies also supported "sending the tanks in" in cases such as Czechoslovakia 1968, Afghanistan 1979, Bosnia and Kosovo/a (in the case of the Serbian state), and so on (whereas the rest of the communist movement has gravitated towards anti-militarism).

What's mind boggling is how he put that "Manifesto" and pictures up on the site in question on June 20th.
He (allegedly) killed those people on June 17th, and was "apprehended" on June 18th.
I imagine a rational explanation exists somewhere.

They did indeed.
They had him at "21" even though the pictures looked more like 16 to me.
