Anything to say about the member of the Mosque who also discharged a weapon? Any news on that?

I thought he was in his late 30s?

What 😨only charged with murder , no mental issues or terrorisim involved ?

3 other civilians had firearms within the vicinity, but had nothing to do with this?

Why are we only getting none stop fox sports news in New Zealand tonight. Just keeps saying “sky news will be back after a short break” hate to think what a long break would be like. Any answers to my question would be good. Ta.

If anyone wants to read his manifesto here it is since the News won't show you:

3 other civilians had firearms within the vicinity, but had nothing to do with this? Huh?

I think it’s time both Australia and New Zealand bring back the death penalty. This grub isn’t worth anymore thought. Jail isn’t a big enough deterrent anymore, I don’t want him breathing the same air as me.

Murder? No terror laws there?

Full statement: Jacinda Ardern says Christchurch shooter has 'no place in New Zealand'New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has addressed the media and the nation following a shooting at a mosque in Christchurch saying it marks one of the country's 'darkest days'. No surprise that an Australian man did this terrible, shameful act of violence - such a strong sub-culture of hatred - and that he streamed it on social media - this access to promoting and glorifying hatred and violence is devastating.
