Unless you can read minds or hearts...you really can't know that.

None of us can.

Of course, very few would ever be stupid enough to say it out loud...much less do anything about their views, like Roof did.

How many posts have you seen right here however, sometimes by reading between the lines...that are sympathetic with his same viewpoint shown here?
