The news readers are stunned = unaccustomed to such things, normally reporting on Tinkerbell Jacinda and village life or interviewing a visiting celebrity they don't seem to know what to say or what emotions they are supposed to act out.
I did think NZ would suffer a jihad mass murder first and have been pleasantly surprised that we had not.
Note that Brenton was arrested without being shot which is a good thing. Very Kiwi.
Good interview with a nice Kiwi Moslem lady in Christchurch. Good interviewer who followed up on the lady's hope for no retaliation. But Brenton was retaliating ... specifically regarding among other things jihad murder in Sweden.
My reaction is that TeoTwawki is wayyyy underway. In June 2015 I explained that Tarken, (little friend of all the world), dying was a canary in a coal mine. A bad sign. So I'm only surprised that a revenge attack happened here on such scale.
But it fits NZ style = first for women vote, first welfare state, first to be run by women = Queen, governor general, prime minister, chief justice, mayor of Christchurch, first in suicides...
"Far right" is being pushed but as explained by Scott Adams it's CNN fake news that causes the carnage. It's far left not far right.
Sadiq Khan was blathering on about fear and how bad it is while his city is barricaded and under police arms and guards due to many Moslem attacks. He should not be surprised by revenge attacks.
I'd go further upstream and point out that USA supported Osama bin Laden against Gorby and lied about WMDs as an excuse to attack Saddam and sons and the deck of cards, and Assad and his nice wife Asma and carnage in Yemen.... and whatnot .
It's a big picture and hundreds of years long.
I say Tradable Citizenship, free enterprise, self determination, Libertarian politics.
