Look at the shadowing - formed by a strong light up and to the left of him.

Yet there is no shadowing on his hair or face that should be caused by his wide brimmed hat
There are no shadows that should be caused by the towel,
There are no shadows that should be caused by the hat strap

What original? What was he really holding?

I see the obvious photoshop with the flag, what am I missing?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 65903203


something other than the flag, should I go into all the possibilities? usually we go off information that is KNOWN, because worrying about the unknown is pointless.

maybe a cat by the tail
maybe a pan with bacon in it.
maybe a flag that says "I love black people"
maybe a joint


should I keep going? the important information here is that it isnt what we are lead to believe, but ill throw a couple more out there just to occupy much of your time with pointless BS.

Maybe a cloud
maybe the space shuttle
maybe the moon
maybe laundry detergent
maybe a sock
maybe a human
maybe a window
maybe a credit card
maybe a high school diploma

there, thatll get you started. Maybe you can think of just one?

Re: THE PHOTOSHOP HAND THAT DESTROYED THE SOUTH!!! DYLANN ROOF AND THE CONFEDERATE FLAG HOAX!!!
Hey morons. The most obvious flaw in this obvious Photoshop is the shadow of his body, hand and the flag.

Notice the distance between what is his back planted foot and the shed behind him. Appears to be about 5 ft or more.

Notice the light source, which is presumably the flash from the camera in a night photo.

Then notice that shadows typically warp over distance and bend with the contours of an object...such as ground or a structure...such as the shed.

But the obvious fakery this.

The shadow floats over the backdrop like a ghost layer without bending or warping or showing any effect of the distance between the photo subject and the objects behind him. It is perfect...because it was generated with a filter that does not calculate distance between objects.

It is even more obvious in the cloth part of the flag....where the shadow would warp terribly across the foliage behind it. Instead it is virtually perfect.

This is a fake. And this conspiracy is real.

Get all of his pics (Only his ORIGINALS), put them all into fotoforensics, look at the EXIF for the creation date/time.

Cross reference with actual sunsrise/sunset times for the East coast (Or just Berkeley County, if you prefer).

If he isn't smart enough to not use flash in EVERY picture (suspect enough), he's not smart enough to clone pics/caps and edit EXIF data.

Don't falter, OP.

The photo isn't photoshopped. What you are looking at is artefacts around edges present in some images especially low res images. It varies.

Even if it was photoshopped, Dylan has others photos he clearly uses the flag without a handle like he did in that photo so your point about it being photoshopped leads you back to square one. Where does this line of thought that the photo is photoshopped eventually lead you? Nowhere.

The handle on that flag as present in the image in the OP is like those you find with other flags that is hooked unto cars. Most sports entusiasts use this kinds of flags pinned to the doors and other parts of their vehicles.

Good, at least you did better than saying its a hoax or fake as some have been saying as if those that orchestrated this event are even trying to hide the fact that they engineered it......in essence, what I am saying is that the mere fact that some are pointing to it as a hoax or fake is still irrelevant. They might delude themselves that all they need to know about this event is that it is fake and leave it at that. However, this doesn't solve nothing.....there is still a real conspiracy going on here and one the engineers of this event are not making any effort to hide from people so if people think they have discovered something nobody else has or can by just saying its photoshopped simply because they find some anomalies in the photos which could easily be present in any normal photo, then these people are only but fooling themselves. I sincerely hope that they are not happy living life this way?

Even though you don't need photoshop effects to stage this event as its too easy to stage, now that they did and you have pointed out something different, what do you do next?

Re: THE PHOTOSHOP HAND THAT DESTROYED THE SOUTH!!! DYLANN ROOF AND THE CONFEDERATE FLAG HOAX!!!
Dylan is holding exactly the flag he is holding IN THE PIX or at least, he is supposed to hold that flag and you are supposed to see it.

OP and others who are genuinely in need to rationalise what is going on and modest/honest with themselves, I understand your need and desperation to figure out what all this crazy stuff going on is all about because with each passing day and each passing event, whether people know this or not...,,,whether they admit to it or not, they are looking more and more like those Russian dolls being buried deeper and deeper into the abyss with all these layers of psyops but nonetheless necessary psyops to suit an agenda, they are bombarded with and sooner rather than later, their minds won't take this anymore. Talk about people going crazy in the literal and realistic sense. We are really not far from that.

It's not an easy thing to admit to oneself and say "I DONT KNOW" or "I REALLY DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON ANYMORE". But rest assured, GLP doesn't have any clue in the world what is going on anymore.

Admitting to this is a safer road to take than thinking you are on top of what is going on when in fact you are not.

You are wrong OP, Dylan is holding the flag he is holding and supposed to be holding and the photo is not photoshopped. The road you are set upon leads you no where.
 Quoting: Thereturn


I agree with everything you said AC.

This photo is a good one to look at with photo forensics like Error Level Analysis.

Here is the url for fotoforensics.com's analysis.
[link to fotoforensics.com]

Here is the basic idea. Every time you save a jpeg file certain kinds of errors accumulate. If you make a change to an area of a photo, say like adding a flag, you change the statistical nature of the file and the accumulated errors.

By running an ELA algorithm on a jpg, you'll get an image that typically looks like a black and white negative built out of static or white noise. The basic way to interpret these is that the level of "static" and it's brightness should be the same for similar areas of a picture.

Areas where there is a large change in contrast will be outlined in static. The brightness of that staticy outline should be similar between regions.

The algorithm accentuates reds and blues.
I'm kind of pressed for time, so I can't go into the specifics on this photo right now, but from everything I've read so far, this is the way the photo should look.

I'll get back here to fill in more details as soon as I can.
