  It is the same hypocrisy that made America Overthrow Kwame Nkrumah and yet supported the dictatorship of Lee Kuan Yew, Park Chung Hee, Agusto Pinochet and co.

  Good point, this flag represents a nation, quite literally formed under the sole pretext of being racist and enslaving blacks. This is the same nation in which the KKK was formed. I don't understand how a flag that represents slavery is not inherently racist. To ask for its abolition is not too much to ask.

  Veteran writer Cameron Duodu has made very important point in distinguishing between the two types of murder, namely a general and a specific one. What is left is to analyze both and treat them for what they are.

  "I was also appalled by the way the media extracted from the relatives of the dead, who were still in deep shock over losing their beloved ones, statements to the effect that they “forgave” Roof for his hideous crime." D media only reported wat d relatives said in court during Roof's arraignment.

  Hi Martin,
  
  No time these days to write and point out what you guys side-stepped on when viewing these things.
  
  I wasn't a bit surprised by what HAPPENED. A white pin-head and nut shooting blacks. Such people shooting pple in the US happens regularly, so what is new about that?
  
  And it happens on even a bigger scale in Africa. I wish I had time to wite on the xenophobia in S. African which flared up recently with the orgie sof killings Africans from other countries. At least, they were killing non-S.African blacks, not fellow S. Africans, as is the case in other African countries. I read so much hypocritical nonsense and mournings about that. Since the Rwandan massacres, an estimated 5m Congolese have died from the ongoing intra-ethnic and what not killings there.
  
  Anway, where were you guys when leaders of the NPP publicly advocate the killing of Ewes and Gas? All Die Be Die Shirts sold like hot cakes. When that crazed Agyapong was released from prison and his case discharged, he was hailed as a hero and carried on shoulders to celebrate his "victory". In America, he'd certainly be out of Congress and in prison for saying what he said. And Akuffo Addo would certainly be in the lunatic fringe of the right-wing elements from which the likes of Mcvie and this Roof came from! Many, many supporters of the NPP are in fact worse than them! Take out the huge logs on your eyes first before trying to take out the specks on that of white logs!
  
  
  Btw, who is doing a sting job on the freaks on Ghanaweb whose pre-occupation os to dialy insult Ewes and "Northerners"?
