Charleston killer Dylann Roof apparently left a ranting, racist manifesto on the internet calling for a new civil war in America before staging his massacre in a church.
A website seemingly written by Roof not long before the killings at the Emanuel AME Church in the South Carolina city emerged Saturday, and said he had 'no choice' but to carry out the massacre.
On the site, he pinpoints Charleston as his target because of its high proportion of blacks and bemoans that there is 'no real KKK' to help him.
The site was also stuffed full of images of Roof burning the America flag, spitting on it, posing next to Confederate landmarks and posing menacingly with a gun pointed at the camera.

Shooter: The site included a picture of a shirtless roof aiming his .45-caliber handgun, believed to be the weapon he used during Wednesday's massacre, at the camera
Roof's 2,500-word rant begins with saying he was not raised racist, but came to the decision he had to act after reading about what he describes as 'black on white crime' and concluding that minorities were taking over the United States.
He also embarks on a bizarre digression on other races, where he dubs East Asians 'allies', calls Hispanics 'a huge problem' says he wishes all Jews would turn blue for a day so people would realize they are different to whites.
In the text, which he implies was written not long before the killings, he declares: 'N****rs are stupid and violent.... Black people view everything through a racial lense [sic].'
At the end of the passage, he wrote: 'I have no choice. I am not in the position to, alone, go into the ghetto and fight.

'Rhodesian': Roof, pictured here posing in a swamp, expressed admiration for apartheid-era South Africa. He named his website Last Rhodesian - a reference to Rhodesia, a former white supremacist state in Africa. In the image above he poses in a jacket wearing a Rhodesian flag
'I chose Charleston because it is most historic city in my state, and at one time had the highest ratio of blacks to Whites in the country.
'We have no skinheads, no real KKK, no one doing anything but talking on the internet. Well someone has to have the bravery to take it to the real world, and I guess that has to be me.
'Unfortunately at the time of writing I am in a great hurry and some of my best thoughts, actually many of them have been to be left out and lost forever.
'But I believe enough great White minds are out there already. Please forgive any typos, I didnt [sic] have time to check it.'
Other photographs Roof seemingly uploaded show him posing with black mannequins, seemingly dressed as slaves, at a museum, and posing on the beach, squatting over White Supremacist symbols he drew in the sand.
He further claims that racial segregation is 'not a bad thing' and praises the white supremacist South African regime as well as attempting to glorify slavery.
Friend of Dylann Roof comments on his state of mind
'GEORGE ZIMMERMAN INSPIRED ME': KILLER SAID TRAYVON MARTIN SHOOTING SHOWED HIM 'WHAT THE BIG DEAL WAS'
The manifesto seems to indicate that Dylann Roof started on his descent into racism and hatred after reading about George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin.
Roof said reading coverage of the February 2012 incident, in which Zimmerman killed Martin but was ultimately cleared of wrongdoing, convinced him that there was an unreported crime wave of black people attacking whites.
He wrote: 'The event that truly awakened me was the Trayvon Martin case. I kept hearing and seeing his name, and eventually I decided to look him up.
'I read the Wikipedia article and right away I was unable to understand what the big deal was. It was obvious that Zimmerman was in the right.
'But more importantly this prompted me to type in the words “black on White crime” into Google, and I have never been the same since that day.
'The first website I came to was the Council of Conservative Citizens. There were pages upon pages of these brutal black on White murders. I was in disbelief.
'At this moment I realized that something was very wrong. How could the news be blowing up the Trayvon Martin case while hundreds of these black on White murders got ignored?'

Close-up: Pictured is the .45-caliber weapon Roof was holding in his photograph. According to members of his family, he bought the weapon with birthday money. He is believed to have used it in the massacre
The website is entitled Last Rhodesian - a reference to the former African state of Rhodesia, which was ruled by whites.
Roof's Facebook profile picture also featured him sporting a Rhodesian flag.
The site was set up in February 2015, and is registered via a privacy protection company in Queensland, Australia, designed to mask the identity of who runs a website. However, Roof's name has been linked to the web address elsewhere.

Nazi origins: The number can refer to a 14-word supremacist slogan: 'We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White Children', said to have been inspired by an 88-word passage in Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf
His apparent manifesto's longest section is simply entitled 'blacks'. Within, he claims white oppression of black people is a narrative of 'historical lies, exaggerations and myths'.
He includes passages on other races, in which he concludes that Hispanic people are also 'a huge problem', describes Asians as 'allies' and says that Jews are essentially white people.
In a section marked 'patriotism', the text says: 'I hate the sight of the American flag. Modern American patriotism is an absolute joke.

And I stand corrected...it apparently wasn't his parents.

So you missed this big part of the article -

His anger came from mainstream media ignoring those murders while turning a black thug into some type of hero victim.
You are the one that was ready to blame his parents based on nothing but assumptions - here the kid tells you why he was angry, and you are going to deny it.

I still maintain that, in MOST cases, racism is learned & since it's not usually taught in schools, that leaves the home.

The internet has changed society dramatically - kids learn a lot of things their parents don't teach them.
