Damning #article written by #aardvark regarding #nz tightening #gun #laws in " #response " to the #christchurch #mosque #terrorist #attack - despite #gunlaw having nothing to do with the reason why it happened: https://aardvark.co.nz/daily/2022/0201.s.. The awful #irony here is, as he says, that it was actually a #failure by the #police to correctly carry out the law in the first place. The only people who have been #punished are #lawabiding #kiwis as he says.
#aardvark raises a great point - who #polices the #police ? https://aardvark.co.nz/daily/2021/1001.s.. It's very concerning and it seems like the #christchurch #mosque #terrorist #attack is being used to #shoehorn more #authoritative #laws ... All I can do is watch this space and hope that the right decisions are made. #freedoms ultimately will #erode unless people defend them.

When the #christchurch #mosque attack happened, it was rightfully called a product of #farright #whitesupremacy #ideology . If we can not be #honest about the roots of problems, we cannot hope to overcome them. The #islamicstate is a growing concern and has been for years. I know for example there is a large #muslimbrotherhood group in #newzealand ...The #lotuseaters have caught up and covered the #nz #auckland #terrorist #attack https://www.lotuseaters.com/six-stabbed-.. I spoke to a #muslim friend today and they mentioned that they were not looking forward to the coming days where people are understandably upset and angry. So far checking up on friends in the area, #touchwood the people I know are okay.
