Thompson publishes an article on July 8, 2015, about an incident that takes place
a month before. The incident is a historic black church in Charleston, South
Carolina, was a target for a shooting. The FBI suspected and visited a founder of
an online white supremacists forum called Stormfront.org. Shortly after the
visit, the founder started soliciting donations for a legal defense fund. The
man who founded the online forum was the Ku Klux Klan grand dragon and his name
was Don Black. He stated, “My free of speech site was attacked and we have to
protect ourselves.” He also said that, “We aren’t going to just sit there and
let the government do what they want.”
Soon
the man who was involved in the shooting was revealed. His name is Dylaan Roof
and he was an online associate. Don Black said he was concerned that federal
investigation on his site would scare off the commenters. He also said that the truth they write is
being attacked when the government calls it “hate speech” and tries to shut it
down. Dylaan Roof was known to have killed nine people in the church. To read
