Islamophobic shooting in Christchurch, NZ

Just watched the full video of what he did, and yeah, I hope NZ has the death penalty, as I wouldn't want my taxes wasted on a piece of meat that doesn't deserve to live.

The white writings on his gun are names of various European national heroes/battles against the Ottomans, so he definitely did research and planned this for a long time.

May the Dead Rest in Peace and I hope the wounded survive.

If this guy bought a gun in New Zealand legally then NZ's gun laws are even laxer than the US's in this case since it's almost impossible for a foreign national to legally buy a gun in the US. Green card holders/permanent residents can but it doesn't sound like this guy had the New Zealand equivalent, he was just an Australian visiting NZ.

"If you are a citizen or permanent resident of Australia you don't need to apply for a visa to live and work in New Zealand. You can be granted a visa on arrival at the border."

The same thing goes for EU citizens living in another EU country, i.e. you are to be treated equally as a citizen, which also applies for gun licenses.

Doesn't matter what he was.

His manifesto is full of contradictions, and as we all know, both the Right and the Left are capable of such things.

Crazy ethno-nationalists sometimes do stuff like this, and crazy Left wing guerillas kidnap and murder alike.
