This is serious. According to what we have so far, the gun man have accomplices. There are also improvised explosives, and automatic weapons. I have checked the NZ fire arms laws, they are slightly laxed, but still more stricter than US. As in no civilian can get hold of fully automatic weapon. So my guess, the weapon used could be semi automatic or illegal automatic. That means, there are circles for supply, production, and planning. This is the work of a terrorist cell, with some skills and sophistication - as in its very different to Monis at Martin Place, and the police station shooting of Curtis Chang. If an Australian is involved, this could mean there are more cell or cells in both Australia and NZ.

Terrifying times.

Indeed.

And I've been saying for ages now that these right-wing, white supremacist terrorists are the people we need to be looking out for.

Moreover, I wouldn't be surprised if some forum members in here turned out to be involved with these violent groups.

Just saw the news - been out all day... shaking head in disbelief...

They keep calling him a White Supremacist - though he has no history of belonging to any group other than the lot he seems to have linked up with in NZ.

I note the cops are better armed after that massacre in the South Island.. I recall one cop early on that scene had a borrowed .22... these guys had AR-15s.

In Europe the vast majority of terrorist attacks are carried out by non-Muslims.

16% = Jihadist

84% = non-Muslim

Non-Islamic terrorism is the norm in Europe (and the US, and Australia, and NZ, etc.).

Not in the last 2-3 years according to European security agencies....

Anyway - thunder returning - on innocents as usual. Bad as IS this guy and his mates..... I noticed no fatal shootouts with the fuzz...

Yes, in the last two or three years according to European security agencies.

Would you like to see the latest reports again?

https://www.europol.europa.eu/activities-services/main-reports/european-union-te...

https://www.europol.europa.eu/activities-services/main-reports/eu-terrorism-situ...

https://www.europol.europa.eu/activities-services/main-reports/european-union-te...

https://www.europol.europa.eu/activities-services/main-reports/european-union-te...

The 2018 report shows that 84% of attacks were non-Islamic, while 16% were Jihadist.

Moreover, not one graffiti attack anywhere to be seen.

Now, is 84 more than 16?

I'm curious.

The basis of caps post is that the Poms sent Indians to Fiji etc etc ... and there's tension between native Fijians and the Indians there

The Poms also allowed small numbers of Indian Muslims into New Zealand. While the numbers remained small, there was no real problem, but in recent times, numbers have grown causing concern

Never think you are safe from this sickening and spreading disease

If you are going to crowded venues, be they entertainment or shopping centres always have an exit strategy

Know where the exits are and the safest place to seek safety in an emergency

This is not a panic written comment, in this crazy world now, these are survival strategies
