'This individual should not be able to share his hateful message from behind prison doors'

The New Zealand government has been left red-faced after fresh propaganda from the man awaiting trial for the worst mass shooting in the country's history was posted on the message board 4chan while he awaits trial.

He wrote that he cannot go into detail about his regrets or feelings,"as the guards will confiscate my letter if I do ,"Images circulated online of the letter are embarrassing for New Zealand authorities who vowed they would try to ensure that Tarrant did not have a platform to spread white supremacist views.

Brenton Tarrant is pictured in the dock for his appearance for murder in the Christchurch District Court on March 16, 2019 in Christchurch, New Zealand. The accused managed to send a letter that was posted to 4Chan.Opposition spokesman David Bennett demanded an explanation from the department of corrections.

Accused?

We only need to look to the ACLU who fought in court on behalf of those in prison to be allowed to be heard from prison. Personally I wouldn't even allow those in prison to be interviewed. They need to be completely cut off from society all together while in jail or prison.

And trump keeps posting and quoting these people.

But then you advocate for the right to vote for people like this in the United States?
