Very much so. I've never even heard of someone owning one outside of farmers.
The fact that they're apparently Australians would make that even more difficult to have these kinds of weapons.
"Any community that gets its kicks by pretending to be idiots, will eventually become flooded by actual idiots who believe they are in good company."
"Jokes" do not remain jokes forever.
It's like saying something ironically, and then eventually you find yourself saying it for real.
? I'm not defending anything. I'm saying fuck 8chan.
These people live and breathe for this shit. They literally only think in memes.
It's honestly extremely alarming. Like any country, the Internet has built for itself its own culture, and this is where we're at now.
There are some people that have such empty lives and are so lacking in social skills that they do nothing but spend their time trolling on the Internet. The idea that most people generally mean what they say is something they don't get.
What a tragedy, so many innocent lives lost. Everyday I'm reminded how precious life is and shit like this just hurts. Anyone who actively searches and watches the video needs help, I don't care how numb you are to violence.
More NZ news stream: They had a 60-something year old woman on who described how she helped treat a man who had been shot and helped him call his wife and told her to meet the man at the hospital, and all while this was going on a man across the street bled to death.
Had to turn the stream off after that, I'm done.

ah okay. the 'riiiiight' seemed like 'this is far fetched'. carry on
Hey buddy - you might want to get this out of here. Not sure everyone wants to read that or give him that kind of vindication by reading his horrid manifesto. Just a heads up, man.
Shooter livestreamed his attack and before he started, he said "subscribe to PewDiePie."
The rest is bullshit he wants spread, so its best if you just ignore it. All you should care about is that a racist waste of space, potentially two, attacked a mosque and killed folks who were praying.
Trying to understand the shooter's actions is not acceptable?
if enough people do something ironically they will attract people that will do it unironically
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Hope that guy enjoys the extra attention he'll be getting from the FBI
Regarding the redacted..
Storm? As in The Daily Stormer?
As in 8chan knew white supremacists were an audience on their website?
I asked before but didnt get a response. No idea what Pewdiepie has to do with this but I have to admit I dont watch his videos or know much about him.
Edit: removing since mods are saying not to talk about the manifesto
Hell, that would be already miles better than a link to freaking Breitbart.
Can't put into words how devastating this is. Y'all have no idea how long this has been in the back of Muslims' minds when it comes to attending the mosque. It's going to be a really weird feeling attending Friday prayer tomorrow here in the US, knowing this just happened at Friday prayer in NZ. Just devastating, heart breaking, feel soooooo numb at how lost our society truly is.
So easy to kill them, so easy to live stream it, so easy for so many to watch like it's a movie, so easy for him to spread his propaganda. I just don't know anymore.

The Rrrriiiighhhtt wasn't doubt but more just.... being so pissed off about the absurdity of it that I said riiiigggghhhhttt. But, internet.
Yes, but also remember, it was streamed on Facebook, which along with Twitter have actual al-Qaida members too.
Social media is garbage, they profit off traffic, this is traffic to them, they don't care.
Speculating something that doesn't make any sense re a mass shooting, yeah.
Jeez. Yo guys chill, we are just LARPING, you are supposed to have fun! Meanwhile creating a vessel for the disturbed to latch onto and get converted or persuaded into doing things .. smh
Saw this was removed, but read it before it was. Won't repost obviously, but all I want to say is, in regards to it:
IF THIS ISN'T TERRORISM, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.
The fact that he probably got the gun legally makes me think background checks are pointless- after all, do any of these mass shooters have a background before their first massacre?
I guess it could stop their second mass shooting. Fuck civilians having guns.

Don't go to Breitbart either. The comments almost made me more upset than the video itself.
Is it true he says "subscribe to PewDiePie" or something? Felix *absolutely* has to condemn this if he wants to keep his career.
Facebook is trying to get those videos encrypted so they can pretend they don't know they're being hosted
Yes he says "remember lads, subscribe to Pewdiepie" before driving out.
Also, "same as Satan in the 70s" - um, Satan was not a real person in the 70s.
I thought of it as more of a passing thought he replied with and not a serious well thought out theory. Just a dumb thing he said. But I don't really know what he was thinking. I think people are over thinking it.
If he was trying to make a joke then screw him. But if he was just dumb thinking out loud ignore it and move on.
