Keyblade Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 9 minutes ago, coda said: Another repulsive attack. The perpetrator sounds like a strange mix of infantile memes and mass murder. The streaming of it and letting his little online clique know beforehand, it's so modern and disturbing. That's the thing, they're not infantile memes. Their whole purpose is to attract young people and put a whole veneer of 'it's just for the lulz' over an insidious ideology. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post peterms Posted March 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2019 I see he says the reason for the murders was to show the "invaders" that they can't conquer "our lands" and replace "our people". And he was born in Australia to parents of "English, Irish and Scottish stock". That would be the same Australia which the English, Irish and Scots invaded, conquering the land and displacing the people living there. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted March 15, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Before you all get too depressed about the modern world, bear in mind that this is all a spit in a bucket compared to 17th Century Europe, where the religiously sectarian Thirty Years War resulted in at least eight million deaths.

chrisp65 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Yep, and the Spanish in Central America, european settlers and early U.S. over in the States. Victorian anarchists. Khmer Rouge when I was younger, they were unpleasant on a big scale. Smaller scale, there were pub bombings and the IRA and nail bombs in gay pubs. Mau Mau rebellion. Red Army Faction. ETA. It is not unprecedented, from killing millions to killing dozens there's nothing new. Just better quality pictures. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black, brown or white....slaughter is slaughter. A soft target, a place of worship. What next ? A revenge attack on a church/synagogue/other public gathering ? Probably. That's what this piece of filth doesn't realise. "Doing his bit for the Christian white folk ?" Not in my name but sadly there are going to be plenty of those who are thinking "yeah, see how you lot like it !". I'm fairly effing depressed about it. This was my thought too. It’ll add fuel to those plotting a revenge attack... and we go round again and again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 It would seem the killer chose "Christ Church" for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Accidentally managed to see the 'livestream' of the shooting. Probably the most sickening thing I've ever seen. The worst part is that nothing will be done about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a direct line of descent from the people who did these things, their ideology, and the white supremacist ideology now in play. I don't think you can compare giving victims afternoon tea with a beheading but typo fun apart , I suppose in answer to the more serious point you could take my last statement and amend it to the right wing nutters haven't re -regressed to that level ...yet Edited March 15, 2019 by tonyh29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention that he's an Australian, shooting people in New Zealand. Shocking, dreadful news. New Zealand would have been one of the last places in the world I'd have imagined something like this happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Absolutely horrific. I’m sure you’ll have some idiots thinking it’s a good thing. Three blokes down my yard were celebrating it. Celebrating innocent people getting killed eh. To the people that done this, you have more blood on your hands than you think. I **** hate the human race at times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 I've been to New Zealand a fair few years ago now, but I found it a rather racist (and sexist) place to be blunt. Not openly. But it's right under the surface. The Maori had deep rooted issues with the settlers, The white people were often appalling in their treatment/opinions on Asians and Everyone seemed to make a scapegoat of the Bangladeshi's was my opinion on how it appeared when I left. Not that it isn't also populated by some of the most lovely people I've ever met, but it's not all Sheep Farming and Bungee Jumping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
