I don't get it completely. So take the upcoming trial of this Roof asshat in SC. Who would have never been a victim of racism or had racist thoughts anytime in their life for them to find 12 untainted jurors?

It's not his past that taints him per se. If he had disclosed, he could have been asked if it would affect his ability to judge this case on its merits. If he said no, the judge could take him at his word and not allow a strike for cause.
That's how they'll get a jury in SC. Huge pool, many will say they won't be affected by their own experiences.
