Christchurch NZ Terror Attacks

https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2019/mar/15/christchurch-shooting-injuries-reported-as-police-respond-to-critical-incident-live

4 people have been taken into custody, 2 mosques and a Hospital hit. Local reporting says as many as 30 dead In one mosque

At least one of the perpetrators allegedly live-streamed himself driving to the mosque and opening fire once he got there.

Saw clips on liveleak. Really emphasizes the vile, disgusting nature of these crimes as well as the lack of empathy possessed by the perpetrators. The guy literally says subscribe to pewdiepie before doing what he did.

I'm curious as to how these individual coordinated and how they acquired the guns given New Zealand's strict laws.

I was having a really great night till this happened.

Attacks like this steal people's lives, their families, their friends. They spread fear, hatred, enmity. They embody in some people the worst aspects of human nature.

Before I am tempted by my own human nature, before I respond in anger to what will be politicized to attack the right and attack Pewdiepie, before I am drawn into defensiveness, pulled into caring more about my own pride and moral posturing than the lives that were lost, falling to my own failings in the face of temptation, I'd like to unequivocally offer my prayers, my condolences, and my goodwill to the victims of this attack and to their families.

At least tonight for me, I will ensure that this has nothing to do with politics, nothing to do with my own honor or defensiveness, and everything to do with what matters most in this situation.

I urge everyone to stay strong in these difficult times. To find humility and compassion in the face of something that challenges the very character of everyone.

I'm sure the dead and their families appreciate your platitudes.

You can't unpoliticize something that is inherently political like this shooting. Perhaps when your grieving is done and you're ready to respond in anger to something, you might leave poor victimized Pewdiepie and the Right alone and direct it toward, say, the group of people that radicalize individuals like this.

40 dead

But when its Muslims doing the shooting and white Christians as the victims then make sure you waste no time in politicising it 👆

Hey at least nobody made a joke of it, or deliberately tried to derail the topic out of spite...yet

All extremists are scum. Most Muslims are not extremists.

Kind of puts things in perspective with all the culture war shit people are dumbed down by.

I hate extremist POS like this. They give sympathy to Islam and give Islamophobes like myself a bad name. RIP to the innocent moderate Muslims killed by this dumbass.

He will be attacked, as he always has, by people who need no excuse.

What angers me, is that they were cracking JOKES.

Agree, 100%.

I do think the speech from the article on imperialism is inappropriate, but there's no denying the media and politicians share of blame in what they say and cover.

Number of dead is at 49 now. 3 people in custody. F*ck their names it doesn't matter they want their names said.

they are sadly what we have allowed them to become mate. 👆

These guys should remain anonymous and send them to trial, don't empower them or their groups with media coverage.
