The ban, issued Saturday, means anybody caught with the document on their computer could face up to 10 years in prison.

New Zealand has banned the possession of a 74-page manifesto written by the man accused of slaughtering 50 people at two mosques in the city of Christchurch.

Chief Censor David Shanks said Brenton Tarrant’s manifesto contains justifications for acts of tremendous cruelty like killing children and encourages acts of terrorism, even outlining specific places to target and methods to carry out attacks. Shanks had earlier placed a similar ban on the 17-minute livestream video the killer filmed from a camera mounted on his helmet during the shootings.But while free speech advocates haven’t questioned banning the graphic video, they said banning the manifesto is a step too far.

Opinion: If America valued its citizens like New Zealand, we'd have gun controlsI still remember when my older brother wrote to us from US Marine Corps bootcamp to tell us that he’d earned the expert rifleman badge for his firearm. We had been taught about guns at home — but also about responsibility Why is it so difficult to do that in America ? The U.S. already has gun control. Only bans and confiscation remains. because the NRA give millions of dollars to the US government

New Zealand shooting: Ardern says she will never speak suspect's namePrime minister says she will do everything she can to avoid attracting attention to Christchurch attack accused This blacking-out thing is just weird and concerning. Crime requires scrutiny. Hatred requires exposure. What a woman! Then don't punish the vast majority of New Zealand's responsible, legal, law abiding firearms owners and sport shooters because of one terrible incident. Yes it was horrific, but they aren't to blame for the tragedy. Nor were their firearms.

Further details would be announced Are you watching, USA? This is how you do it. Damn.. Are they stupid? Maybe something should be done to religious extremism first? Yes..
