HexagonKeySet: Tragedy brings out the best and worst worst in people M4 ...

There's been but one lone voice in NZ suggesting that 'All security eyes have been focused on Islamic people looking for trouble from that source, while none were looking at possible threats against them'

One can only hope that is not 'The spark that fans into a forest fire here ...'
Exactly....extremists are extremists and terrorists are terrorists regardless of their race or religion......wave

bigjb62: My local news has been calling him a white nationalist.
He's nothing of the sort.

He's a nutter who wrote a rambling "manifesto" in which, among other things, he says that he is angry about Muslims, that he likes Communist China, and then he includes a grab bag of ideas. He is, by his own admission, neither a conservative nor a Christian.

He has spent time in Pakistan recently. Is he perhaps a Jihadist convert on an undercover mission? Who knows.

But what I do know is that you and I and everyone else of a conservative persuasion will be blamed, at least by association, for this nutjob's antics. And that we will be increasingly attacked, smeared, and suppressed.

Tarrant left Grafton around the time of his father's death in about 2011
A few months before his Western Europe trip, in late 2016, Tarrant visited Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Croatia, where he stopped by historic battle sites, Bulgarian Chief Prosecutor Sotir Tsatsarov told Reuters.
He returned to the region in November 2018 to tour historic sites of Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary.
Tarrant also visited Turkey "multiple times and spent an extended period of time in the country"
His suspended Facebook page also showed a post from Pakistan in 2018 in which he called the country "an incredible place filled with the most earnest, kind-hearted and hospitable people in the world," according to the Herald.

Jacinda Ardern received Brenton Tarrant's manifesto nine minutes before New Zealand attack
It showed him driving to the first mosque while listening to a song idolising Radovan Karadžic, who was jailed for genocide and other war crimes against Bosnian Muslims.
The document says the attack was planned for two years and that although New Zealand was not the original choice of location, Christchurch was scoped out three months in advance.


"One might well 'ask questions' as to how a Christchurch 'City Dweller' justified to the licensing authority his ownership of automatic weapons."
Think you will find he lived in Dunedin

Cheers, my understanding was that he resided in ChCh - cheers for putting that right Rob.

I DID see that police were interested in a Dunedin property but at that time the news report indicated 'others' involved.

I agree 'hate crime' is more relevant than terrorism - terrorism generally involved groups and a wider spread of threat than just one fanatic - esp when that one is in immediate custody !

robplum: Queensland senator Fraser Anning has been egged while speaking to the media at a political meeting at Moorabbin in Melbourne's south-east.

Footage of the incident shows a young man watching Senator Anning from the sidelines before he starts filming with his mobile phone, and then smashes the egg on the back of the senator's head.

In response, Senator Anning swings two punches at the young man, at least one of which connects with the young man's head.

A staffer for Senator Anning then separates the senator from the young man, while supporters of the senator tackle his attacker to the ground.

The young man was later led away by police.

A Victoria Police spokesman said officers arrested a 17-year-old boy from Hampton who was released pending further inquiries.

A fundraising page has already been set up to collect donations to cover the teenager's legal fees and to buy "more eggs".

more than this

xJANIx: So sad thing to happen...
But let's remember what religion is the most violent, remember the holy wars ? 500 Jihads against 20 Christian crusade... Remember the times when last christian attack against Muslims happened ? Not talking about Jewish sponsored middle east wars (Libya. Iraq, Syria etc). But Muslims do that pretty much today...
The main point is that multicultural society never works, that's why we have different states with different people and races. More multicultural country, more violent, just look at USA or UK.
Agreed.

HexagonKeySet:

Not that it really matters, but to set the record straight, this chap did NOT live in Christchurch. Originally from Australia, he had been living for some time in Dunedin. He drove up to Christchurch simply to commit the attack.

Hi there, Said Mahmoud.

I am someone who is concerned about the Islamic takeover of the West (just as I am sure you would be concerned if Christians were trying to take over Muslim lands). But I am not anti-Muslim. I respect anyone who believes in God and acknowledges that there is something bigger out there, than they are. And, like you, I abhor the Godlessness and decadence of the modern West.

I also liked the comparison graphic you posted on page 4 or 5 - it makes some valid points and is thought-provoking.

But this post above is really well out of order. I do not know what country you are originally from, but I see you live now in Germany. I am puzzled as to why you think it is appropriate for you to demand the resignation of a politician on the other side of the world? You are entitled to have an opinion about what he said, but his place in the Australian Senate is a matter for the electors of Australia.

READ BEFORE SCRUBBED: If You Talk About “NZ Shooting” You’ll Be Targeted! Here’s What’s Going Down!

The truth is not allowed. We are slowly being scrubbed from the internet.

Since the #NewZealand Mosque shooting, #Facebook, #Twitter, #YouTube, #Google and other social media sites are intentionally purging thousands of videos, links, and information on the killer’s manifesto.

I’m not quite sure who is “driving the purge,” but video after video is disappearing from the internet, and yesterday, my video was added to the list

#LisaHaven and she is pretty mild. This is censorship

I am sure we would all agree that the video of the actual attack posted by the murderer should be taken down.

Bt you are right - this attack is already being used as an excuse to crack down on any discussion about immigration, to erode further our civil liberties, and to make it that much harder to be a conservative, in a world in which it is already difficult. Much of the crackdown will be aimed directly at New Zealand (e.g. our already strict gun laws will be tightened even further) but much of it will have an impact on the entire world.

I disagree. But I am not going there. (I have discussed the video with enough people... already and my mind will not change)

And Dissenter and ZeroHedge has been banned in NewZealand.

Correct.. mostly aimed at NZ.. for now. But this is a global goal.

I don't believe this to be a government-sponsored false flag attack, but, given that he has spent time in places like Pakistan, it remains (in my view) a distinct possibility that he is a Muslim convert who is trying to discredit "anti-Muslim" sentiment.

What is for sure is that governments the world over appreciate this sort of attack, as it enables them to impose laws and restrictions that would otherwise be difficult to impose. 9/11 is the ultimate example fo that.

Being used to introduce new freedom laws like take aways guns, and censor everything on the net, censor media, censor police investigations.
How many more attacks are going to follow over the next few weeks, i hope no more.

What's gonna give ? better to have info or not ?

I didn't hear a clear explanation about the three people also detained by police, but I think I heard mention one or more of those folks was / were armed, and were offering resistance against the mass murderer.

The seeds of our tomorrows never fail to turn up because once sown they are certain.
Emotional bla bla bla always leads to knee-jerk reactions, politicians like to take advantage of chickens running around with heads chopped off more bla bla bla.
Feminist often suffer from an uncontrollable emotional turmoil as there thought process if often far more emotional than with male rebirth.
Some folks simply do things more mindful people wouldn't do, like entering Muslim mosques, or listening to other belief's prays, some folks guard the mind with good reason. Like in without causes = nothingness...

robplum: I find it hard to believe a person like Brenton Tarrant with no military training could pull such an event off without assistance.

It is possible, and has been done before. But you are right - it does raise questions. This is one reason many people are claiming that this may be a "false flag" attack, or a "double bluff" attack by a Muslim convert with the backing of Islamists in Pakistan.

As sad as it is it would be nice if the Muslim community spoke out against the atrocities when it's inflicted upon us.

They say nothing it's us always bowing down to their sadness.
