Just like Sandy shook was the turning point for gun control in America...
How would that work? Who would have that power in this case?
This is just awful. And for goodness sake, I understand some people might have morbid curiosity or some sense they need to see what the latest news is or whatever, but if a video is online that you know contains actual murder, don't watch it. You are likely not as ready for it as you think.
Reading this thread it's also clear that auto play on scroll is a terrible feature that needs to go away. Imagine all the people seeing this with no idea what's happening - just like these disgusting fucks want.
I hope it was just one shooter and the reports of multiple was just the standard early misinformation.
On the NZ news site it said at least 2 shooters. One was in custody.
But they are often wrong on the number of shooters in the early reports.
it's not besides the point. YOURE IN AN ACTIVE SHOOTING THREAD. read a fucking room holy fucking shit.
We needto end this shit guys. It's up to us. Where does this shit go in 10 years?
We need to promote Peace again. We forgot about Peace.

Dude wrote a PDF about his plans and he mentioned a second mosque. A little while later reports came in of a second shooting at that very mosque. Apparently there are 2 shooters (there's footage going around of 2 people with guns, but it's not confirmed to be of this shooting just yet), but they only have one in custody so far.

During the Friday prayer too. They died shaheed.

They just don't get it. We need everyone to understand how damaging this is. As if this whole thing isn't evidence enough.
Jesus fucking christ. Look at yourself. You're using "it's just a meme" for A MASS SHOOTING.
The latest official response I believe is that they are "tracing" a potential second shooter, but still have not confirmed if there was more than one. They are still treating it as an active shooter situation.

Youtubers like PDP need to be held accountable for raising our youth like this. It's incredibly irresponsible and we are now seeing the effects in real time.
They are just doing the reporting correct? Not airing the video? Don't need that
speaking as a new zealander, newshub is the worst, look for tvone stuff, they're not a pure clickbait outlet like newshub is https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news
It could be only one but nothing is certain. After shooting up the mosque, the terrorist drove off in his car shooting everyone who looked Muslim enough. There was a moment when he almost stopped for pedestrians on the crosswalk but honked at them to move out of the way. It could be just him driving to a different location that is sparking all these reports
So the guy who says it should be bigger than videogames is making it about videogames.
My original reply stands.

I've seen it more and more in aus peoples ideology and support of insane things like this slipping in further and further. Makes me sick to be australian and think someone from here can and has gone this far to attack our neighbours in NZ or that anyone can do this.
I'm so fucking sorry to anyone caught up in this.

The digital era needs a concrete focus on ethics and literal-philosophical studies. These systems, communities and services can't be under charge of technicians who don't have a clue about "real life". I'm exaggerating (also because I don't know how to put this thought in exact english) but this is basically my point. I don't think they're really "sociopaths", but sure they've been negligent and greedy in many instances. And this is deeply bad as well.
I just hope we didn't reach the point of no return.
And folks wonder why we get edgy when they shit on us. Fuck, there will never be peace for Muslims.
ty for the replies. I'm praying this nightmare ends as soon as possible and nobody else has to lose their lives to this travesty.
To a white supremacist US President and a huge chunk of white supremacists in European Parliament.
You know, maybe Michael Pachter was brain dead all this time.
That would make sense.
What a fucking idiot
Ignore him. Emotions are running high right now. Let's not all attack each other.
It's so insensitive it's mind blowing he'd even respond like that.
Ridiculous. I can't say wtf enough.
Was he trying to link the symbolism of the date to the shooting to PDP? I don't even know what the fuck he is thinking. Should add him to the persona non grata list.
Amin.
I know they suggested closing Mosque doors for safety but that sounds all sorts of depressing. It's supposed to be a place of solace and comfort.
These fuckers wont deter us from Jummah tomorrow.
You can limit the availability of pics and videos just fine, in particular on Twitter, Facebook and Co
I understand why people wouldn't want to watch or spread the video (I definitely don't want to see it) but I honestly believe lawmakers should be forced to watch it. People knew that war was hell, but seeing footage of Vietnam changed public opinion. It's one thing to know that something is happening.. it's another thing to see it.
Then again, maybe even seeing it wouldn't do anything to change relevant opinions.
