Kiwidoug Posted March 15 As if the people in Christchurch haven't suffered enough in that city, it is now in lockdown in what appears to be mass shootings at various sites including mosques. News is still sparse but it appears to be horrific. Let's hope for the best for all all the people caught up in this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter_hmfc Posted March 15 The shooter broadcast it live on Facebook via a GoPro camera and the video is online. From the looks of it there could be 20+ dead from one attack. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwidoug Posted March 15 Latest reports are that it's not one of these jihadi madman, it's an Aussie right wing extremist. Reports are that at least 27 are dead. Let's hope they're wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Victorian Posted March 15 Horrific. What a horrendous thing. If this happened here in the UK on a similar scale it would be equally as horrific but it would also be a very real threat of escaling violence getting out of control, such is the scale of extremists loose on the streets, from both sides.

To be fair, anyone who carries out an atrocity like this, must have a screw or two loose. Just read the reports on this. Absolutely horrible. As another poster said above, what a disgusting coward.

Won't surprise me that he'll revel in his notoriety, another Anders Breivik type possibly. On the mental health issue, seemingly on the video he's shooting at people from his car, but then stops at a pedestrian crossing and as calm as you like lets people cross the road then drives on.

John Findlay Posted March 15 Why do we tag these people with labels. Right wing extremist, jihad is etc etc. No they are murderers/mass murderers pure and simple. shouldn't be breathing air. When found guilty in a court of law. Just take him/them out back and put a bullet through their head(s) quick and painful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taffin Posted March 15 13 minutes ago, Homme said: I couldn't bring myself to watch videos like this. Staying away. Indeed. Used to me drawn to macabre stuff like this when I was younger, it fascinated me. I often had to be quite clued up on it for my degree in fairness but now I just can't stomach it. The terror and pain you see in the faces of the victims and the empty eyes of the perpetrators just makes me so sad and depressed. Won't be watching this either.

i8hibsh Posted March 15 If it's not the scumbag Jihadis it is some scumbag right wing extremist - both as bad as each other. All murdering pieces of shite. The sooner we rid the world of the cancer that is religion the better we will all be. Can't even bring myself to watch the news footage on this as it gets me too angry.
