Context. What was it, 2 weeks ago a wacko draped in that flag slaughtered 8 innocent people? The grace, humanity and forgiveness show by the victim's families stood out in the situation. So yes there is a difference in this from 2 weeks ago.
I am glad we are spending so much time focusing on a flag and ignoring the fact this kid had issues and racism was the least of them.
I own multiple guns, but I don't just go kill anyone I don't agree with. To have that mindset to go kill innocent people goes beyond racism. I am not saying that isn't still an issue, but to think every redneck racist is going to go on a killing spree is ignorance.
If the media spent half the time on the mental health issues of these killers as they did trying to drum up another story, we could bring light to the real problem, but that doesn't make headlines. Let's just report in a golfer painting a flag on his car instead.
