Money, if I had to guess I'd say some hosting companies know that not a lot of companies will not host these fuckers, so they do it and charge a premium.
Because the perpetrator is white, Australian and a christian.
I don't see it happening, not until we have ISIS associated with those sites.
Until then, it's "just memes bro"
I am in tears. After reading horrible comments about this tragedy online all day ( some people are fucking enjoying it ), this is the first honest, humane and wise statement that I have seen.
I watched the beginning of the video streamed by the terrorist. Do not watch a single second of it. It makes you lose hope towards humanity, towards life. My heart goes out to all that were directly affected by this atrocious supremacist.
Haven't checked but i'm pretty sure it's mostly "mass shooting" with Fox downplaying it as an "isolated incident" or some shit like that. US news are sadly predictable in the matter.
One thing they can do is to stop allowing videos and pictures to be uploaded for a few hours while they clean up whatever has been uploaded. But you know they won't do that.
Because to them money is more important than people's lives?
It could be bullshit because at the time Breivik claimed he was part of a network but Police at the time found no evidence of that, the conclusion was that he acted alone.
But there are sympathizer with him out there so this shooter was inspired by him atleast.
I just turned on my morning news here in Texas and they are reporting that police are being stationed outside the Islamic Association of North Texas just to be safe.
The fact that is even necessary is blood boiling.

What a fucking tragedy. How the fuck do you go shoot a bunch people at a place of worship? These people are basically looking for peace, solace and maybe some help.
Pittsburg, Charleston , and now this :/
I just hope isis wannabes don't start think about revenge attacks now.

Even if those 3 blocked the videos, you'd still have sites like liveleaks who live on hosting this shit and glorify Human misery. The whole internet needs to be policed.
Because they're dickless cowards, gunning down defenseless unarmed people when they least expect it.
Went to bed at 27 murdered and that has risen to 49. I really hope it rises no more and the injured ones make full recovery.
I caught some of it by mistake just scrolling through twitter...I feel sick. That video is horrific.
Thoughts and prayers for the families effected by this. Truly heartbreaking.
I had the same thought. And innocents will get caught in the middle (or new people will become radicalized) with each new event.
Absolutely horrible news. RIP victims. :'(
Unfortunately, that wouldn't be the first time that a suspect used the initial confusion to commit even more crime.
Must be a pain to coordinate the police response for this and getting a clear picture of the situation.
This is what I asked when I''ve 1st learned about 8chan, as well. Not sure how a site like this can exist on the non-Dark Web internet. How is Law Enforcement not going after these sites, especially when they are hosting child porn and other inhuman things?

Tragic stuff, unfortunately hate is something that will never be snuffed out. I don't think it's possible.
This is the world we live in, wish I didn't bring kids into it.

I am shaking right now in horror. I feel so disgusted, angry, furious, livid that something like this has happened.
A very close person in my life have used the disgusting words "All Muslims are not terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims". A blatant disregard to history and now catastrophes like this. I hear these words again and again in my head reading these news and it absolutely boils my fucking blood.
It makes my physically sick that people are gonna rationalise that this attack was by some "crazed murderer", trying to tip toe around the T-word as to keep themselves oblivious that our culture is breeding hateful fucking ignorant pieces of shit ready to murder hundreds of peaceful citizens of our countries.
My condolences to all victims, to muslims and to the people of New Zeeland. NZ should not have to be associated with this shit. The most horrifying thing I should be thinking about when thinking of New Zeeland is that ring wraiths once walked there or that evolution came up with the Kiwi bird and thought "Yeah this is enough".

It was about six minutes from the first shots to him getting back in his car. There are also multiple suspects.
Yup. Even the former mayor of that city said the same - that this is the sort of thing they thought only happened far away from their islands.
This is on America. Years of mass shootings with no effort at all on the part of the American government to prevent them has normalised these barbaric acts and now idiots all over the world are copying them. The American corporations that do nothing to combat this poisonous mentality on their own websites are similarly to blame for this. Facebook actually allowed this shit to be livestreamed and did nothing about it?
Increased knife crime in the UK, mass shootings in countries where this sort of thing just doesn't happen and increasingly dangerous and insidious ideologies spreading like wildfire... The world looks up to America as the example to follow and now look where that's gotten us.
Because they immerse themselves in internet cesspits 24/7 and nothing is done to stop that from happening.
I don't think anyone is looking up to America anymore after Trump...
BBC page on the arrest with safe video. (Not his POV)

Oh fuck. What a depressing day. My condolences to everyone involved. ;(
not as tough as Australia, but still tough. buying a gun requires a strong background check and Assault rifles and pistols must be registered with the police.
but unlike Aus majority of the guns here are not registered. I suspect this is going to change after this.
Unbelievably horrific news. All the best to victims and their families. I hope they manage to dig into the person or people who did this.
While everything seems absolutely fucked and hatred does appear to be everywhere, remember that when you look at the actual hard numbers, violence and crime and death and basically everything bad has been in decline for decades because we're always improving society (even if telecoms and the internet certainly doesn't make it feel like it)
Watched the full video. You hear a lot about how insane these automatic rifles are, but actually seeing it is something else. In less than a minute, he slaughters an entire room filled with innocent people.
We have to get rid of these weapons everywhere. They do not belong outside of the military, and each one needs to be tracked to ensure they never fall into the wrong hands.

Does anyone know if the police presence at Islamic sites and businesses in the US today is gonna be a common theme? Or is whats going on here in Texas the exception?
I have to imagine there will be increased security everywhere right?

It doesn't. I watched the whole thing (I think), and it ends with him leaving the mosque.
They are semi automatic rifles, not true machine guns (the U.S. govt. term for full autos).
I know that, in London, they're dramatically increasing police presence near mosques for a while, just in case. They're not even risking a copycat.
And they choose this time and this pray of the week in particular because they know friday "Jumma" pray is the most gathering.
Sadly, they weren't even automatic rifles. Both rifles used were semi auto, along with a pump action shotgun. These were civilian models which killed 49 people in the span of seconds.
