Have you ever walked through your neighborhood, or through the hallways of your high school and envisioned yourself pumping round after round of ammunition into your “peers,” targeting those who constantly harass or poke fun at you?
Most of you would definitely answer that question with a resounding NO! and I don’t blame you. I wouldn’t actually do something like that myself, because I am a level-headed individual. Although I have to admit, I have thought about it. Rage makes people think terrible things, but sanity keeps us from acting on them.
And as crazy as this might sound, I am not at all surprised by Dylan Roof’s actions.
While I was growing up in a working-class area of my city, everyone in the neighborhood knew my name, the names of everyone in my family, and vice versa. Looking back, it reminds me of that old phrase, “It takes a village to raise a child,” and how true it actually was for me, my sisters, and the other neighborhood kids. We ran barefoot in the streets, rode bikes, and played stick-ball until the street lights came on. As I got a bit older I noticed that the younger kids never played outside without parental supervision, bikes were never left unlocked, as they were when I was younger. Something had changed.
Our community became culturally and racially “enriched.” Bikes being stolen was just the calm before the storm. Fights were more frequent and drugs became more accessible. Before this time I remember when every summer we held a neighborhood carnival to commemorate the end of the school year. But like many things I cherished from my childhood, those carnivals no longer exist.
After the enriching, these carnivals became the place for fights. And every single time the combatants were one race vs. another, like the Jets and the Sharks, I kid you not. After much tension and many fights, there was this one incident that had finally escalated to a shooting, something that would have been unheard of before the racial integration of Juniata Park. After that, the carnival — and the cohesive white community — was history.
You can trust that watching the place you grew-up in turn into a crime-ridden society will drive you crazy. Especially when you are reminded of how thankful you should be to have the “opportunity” to now live in a world filled with diversity.
Soon after, my family and I moved into another area. Not far, just one zip-code away. Not a much “better” (read: financially more well-off) neighborhood, or anything, because that’s all my family could afford.
When we left, it was because we told ourselves the neighborhood was getting “bad.” Upon reflection, we always denied the role that race was playing in a neighborhood “getting bad”; as if it just magically happened, and no one could understand how or why, because, after all, diversity is a good thing. Right?
This is obviously a touchy subject for me personally, but enough talk about me. That is to say that, based on my experiences, I can understand why Dylan “the reckoning” Roof freaked out. Do not think I condone it. If you do, maybe you should stop reading.
Whenever someone commits a heinous crime, such as murdering innocent people, everyone is appalled, myself included. It’s as if there is some universal truth attached to our morals, wherein it is always wrong when innocent people are killed in cold blood.
But like all murder cases, there are shades of gray, especially when the judge and jury are trying to determine the motive of some crime, i.e. if the crime was premeditated or committed as a crime of passion. To this end, each comes with a different prison sentence and moral attachment. Depending on the circumstances, some murders are seen as justifiable in the eyes of the public who may have see the case on TV, or read about the details in the newspapers. So what about Dylan Roof?
Before you jump to conclusions and accuse me of being morally repugnant, be sure that I am not trying to defend Dylan Roof’s actions or claim they were justified. What I am saying, at least from one man’s perspective, is that they were understandable.
I understand his anger and resentment.
I understand how he felt alone, and how being alienated can cause someone, who may not be mentally altogether, to lash-out in ways most decent people, in a decent society, could never fathom.
But, wait, doesn’t this then raise the question “do we even live in a decent society?” Is it decent to ignore countless black on white murders, rapes, and other general violent crimes, all in order to maintain a politically correct narrative? Is it decent for the media to go to great lengths to exclusively portray minorities as constant victims of white oppression?
Dylan Roof is undoubtedly guilty of a heinous and unforgivable act. But I would like to boldly state that his accomplice is every facet of the mainstream media; and if you ask me, they are almost as guilty as he is.
How much longer will the majority of whites in America — the ones who can not afford to live in any area other than the “culturally enriched” — be pushed around by policy makers who use them as lab rats in their “cultural” experiment for “public” good? How long will they sit and watch their neighborhoods turn into Third World, crime-ridden slums, right before their eyes, and say nothing? How long will it take for the “backpack of white privilege” to weigh so heavily that it begins to send its wearers into great rage, anger, and frustration?
And isn’t history supposed to be our greatest teacher? Yet no one wants to admit that Dylan Roof is now part of our collective history and memory. The only way to avoid another Dylan Roof episode from airing on network TV is if we finally start learning from (y)our mistakes.
I honestly believe that Dylan Roof’s actions should be heeded as a warning. A warning to the current establishment; a warning to those who wish to maintain the status quo.
What warning is that, you ask? Either embrace the truth and put an end to your relentless critique and attack on White Americans, their history, and their culture, or feel the backlash of those with backpacks becoming to heavy to carry without complaint. To either grant white Americans the same privileges that are afforded to minorities of all stripes, or accept the consequences of which history has written, and the television narrated.

Excellent article that raises an interesting question:
What would happen if this became a regular occurence?
I think we do ourselves a great disservice by constantly talking about the Roof incident as if it were some defining moment of our time. Like I said before, the only reason we’re talking about this is because the media establishment decided we should be talking about it, while thousands of heinous Black on White hate crimes go unreported, or unmentioned. Why play into the enemy’s hand? If someone brings up Roof during your advocacy for the White race, simply remind them of the statistics, or of the numerous similar cases where the roles were reversed (and where nobody felt the need to call for the death penalty I might add). Brooding over Roof achieves nothing in my opinion.
Never let a crisis go to waste. They have served us lemons so we make lemonade. Surely you don’t think we are in charge of the dialogue? That being said, your response is perfectly appropriate and of course, the truth. Thus your services are not needed in our Propaganda Division. Factual Truth is one thing, and Emotional Truth quite another. There will be no White Republic without the aid of master marketing. It is one of the main engines of history.
It is still poor taste to ideologically profit from a tragedy. As much as the Left is using this incident to say “Told you so, racists!” or “Told you so, second amendment!” it is just as bad to milk this cow with “Told you so, diversity!”
Say what you need to say, be done with it and respect the tragedy. That is good taste and rising above the vulgarity of the opposition.
Exactly. There is no point discussing Dylan Roof of what he did unless we address the 800lb gorilla in the room….which is:
Over 40,000 White Women in the USA are raped by Blacks EVERY YEAR.
Thousands of murders committed by Blacks AGAINST Whites.
Hispanics, Mexicans, South Americans and Middle Easterners are cataloged/marked as “White when they do hate crimes or any crimes……which makes it look like Whites are criminals.
Lets not forget that over 1,000,000 Whites have been murdered in USA by Blacks between 1910 to 2010, but we are told that the KKK that lynched a couple of rapists/murderers is horrible…….geez.
Total crimes by Whites are between zero and less than 1% in the entire USA.
Every minute in the USA there is a crime committed against a White Male, a White Female, an old lady, an old Veteran and yes even beloved pets. These crimes are mainly committed by Blacks…..FACT.
I was just looking through these comments for the first time, sorry for the delay, but I have to disagree with you hear.
I am not “brooding” over Dylan Roof, nor do I see how this article plays into our enemy’s hand.
We have the facts, we have the statistics, and we have been using them since they have been made available, these tools alone they have done absolutely nothing in terms of changing peoples minds. I am not playing into the hands of the enemy, I am taking a page out of their book, because their approach has proven to be effective, regardless of the facts and evidence. Propaganda is a powerful thing, much more powerful than the truth alone.
The media establishment will use lies to propagate their message and we do not have the luxury of picking and choosing our topics simply because they have the loudest voice, we have to take their propaganda and repackage it. This is where we have an advantage because we have the facts, the statistics and the evidence to support our cause. By combining those with emotional and personal experiences, those pieces of evidence will resonate and be much more effective in reaching people.
Your childhood reminds me of my childhood; I remember white America fondly. What amazes me is how powerful non-whites have become, wherever I move blacks immediately recognize me and soon the whole town knows who I am. Blacks can isolate and destroy any white in any community no matter what the size; the cell phone became a great resource for them and they are always cross-talking. Whites have never worked that well together, except in times of invasion, i.e., the huns, muslims, mongols. White christians are so stupid that they will automatically believe anything that a non-white tells them and persecute and ostracize their fellow whites at their behest. This would not happen if we had our own religion. Christianity has destroyed all racial loyalty and western civilization; white christian clerics are subversive agents in our midst!
Truth has no value in a delusional world. I think we all know where this rabbit hole leads. It’s a one way trip, and there is no turning back.
The official stated purpose of United States PSY-OP’s is to induce or reinforce behavior favorable to Governmental objectives.
Gun Grab??? Maybe…
On Wednesday, June 17th, a 21-year-old white man, Dylann Storm Roof entered the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, and killed nine blacks.
This backlash from Europeans should come as no surprise, Europeans are under attack in our own countries, the Main Stream Media (MSM) never talks about Black on White crime in our Nations.
According to Government statistics 85% of all interracial crime is black against white.
Dylann Roof wrote a Manifesto, explaining his actions, in a coherent forthright fashion, his cry for help will resonate with many Europeans today.
Dylann Roof speaks of real life experience, and calls out the Jews for agitating, and inciting blacks to hate Europeans.
If one looks at the Media today Dylann Roof got it right; while Europeans are under attack in our own countries, the Main Stream Media (MSM) almost never talks about Black on White crime in our Nations.
Dylann Roof wrote that segregation was not a bad thing, and was never intended to hold the blacks down, but was merely employed as defensive measure.
It seems Dylann Roof got that right as well; according to the D.O.J.’s own statistics, 85% of all interracial crime is black against white.
Dylann Roof longed for the security of the suburbs and scolded a system that abandoned him and other Europeans to endure schools that are 90 percent black, he explained that Europeans were being singled out and picked on for being White.
Dylann Roof speaks from personal experience as he describes his schools anti-white curriculum; pointing out that the teachers expounded on blatant fallacies of black achievement, while diminishing the role of European contributions.
The MSM would like us to believe that Dylann Roof was a doped up drug-fiend who had a skewed vision of the world.
However, if one reads his Manifesto it becomes clear that Dylann Roof speaks from personal experience, and there is no substitute for experience in such matters.
I feel sorry for Dylann Roof’s of this world, who suffer the harsh injustices of racial integration of the inner city only because they lack the means to flee to the safety of the suburbs.
Dylann Roof rightly pointed to MSM’s role in agitating the black race, to hate the Europeans.
What I found most stRiki-Eiking was Dylann Roof’s willingness to sacrifice himself for the sake of other Europeans who find themselves in similar circumstance wherever they might live.
You know what one of the black ladies said in the “emotional bond hearing?” She said “I am a work in progress.” This is not what a real person would say a couple days after losing a loved one. Come on …
As White nationalists and advocates, we are almost asked to have a view about Roof. To publicly condemn the act. To distance ourselves from it. We automatically supposed to say this is a terrible thing when at the same time black on White murder is not even reported or played down or written off as an inevitable consequence of White racism/imperialism/slavery whatever.
The key thing here is Whites have no rights. No identity. No pain. No plea in all this.
Blacks no matter what their crimes, their violence against Whites and their failure to inhabit the same moral and cognitive space as the society that’s provided for them, are perpetual victims.
Blacks are not asked to remodel themselves politically and ideologically to prevent their violence on us but Whites are instructed to, their symbols are torn up.
I don’t feel like having an especially condemning view towards Roof anymore, other than a quasi-legal disclaimer saying ‘well we don’t support acts of violence. Don’t copy him’ Because that’s all it is. It’s a disclaimer essentially to authorities that we are not part of Roof’s camp to protect ourselves. But I don’t feel sadness about it other than how it affects White activist self-confidence currently.
I have been musing over Dylan Roof the last couple of days, there seems to be something different about him. I think he is going to become an anti-hero greater than Robert Jay Matthews.
There is a magnetism about his aspect; he will resonate greatly with white teenagers 20 years from now. I can see him on t-shirts in the future.
A promising story of how people go mad in herds, but only recover their senses slowly, one by one:
My father, who has been indifferent at best to the invasion and PC dispossession of the nation takes the time to tell me what he did while he was at McDonald’s in Toronto this week. The conversation was ‘triggered’ when I mentioned to my Father that he ALWAYS locks his doors now and puts the security on immediately after coming home… to which he responded with a story:
He noticed a ‘swarthy’ Middle Eastern man (or a Sikh possibly??) at the McDonald’s going to order. Noticing that the man carried a handgun in his holster, and was a security guard on duty, he became uneasy.
My father said he didn’t like that this guard was shopping and clearly attending to other matters while on duty and moving money for the bank next door. Something wasn’t right..
So…. my Father immediately grabbed my Mom and demanded she leave NOW. HE left quickly as in his words ‘I’m not taking any chances of being made a sitting duck for a situation I didn’t choose’.
‘How did this guy even get a gun???’
‘If he can be a guard then ANYONE can!!’
I pointed out that this whole issue is solved really with borders, not coercive PC rhetoric. The time to act is NOT in a McDonald’s, its YEARS before that!!!! Then I told him ‘Diversity means chasing down the last White person’.
I think a light came on for a second anyway. HE always hates hearing that ‘Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White countries for Everyone IS White Genocide’. Because he has no answer- he only says ‘Yeah. What is that anyway???.
But from commenting that his grandsons school postings no longer say Christmas holiday or Christmas break on the public billboards but only ‘see you after the Winter vacation’ … I think he is waking up. This is from a man who never misses a PC soaked, socialist, SJW anti-white broadcast from the CBC news.
But now he keeps the doors locked and security on immediately after coming home. He notices the problems with ‘traffic’ in the area now, and keeps and eye on the neighbourhood. He even asks ‘What would I do if someone came through the front door???’ (Even though nothing has EVER happened locally to justify that concern (yet), but he is asking it!!)
The answer is to protect the doors into your country, and those who control those doors, not just your own home. But in any event- – he is waking up — he just can’t bear to utter the word ‘diversity’ – yet.
