just read that there is a page on Reddit dedicated to watching people die and people are uploading their own versions of this attack video adding their commentary over it. Reddit were asked to take it down and refused saying they believe in free speech.

^that is how you end up with a fucked up society

Needs more research, I wouldn’t recommend watching any of the footage and I hope it is taken out the public eye, but if you have he was clearly influenced by computer games, it plays out like a first person shooter game.

Billions of people follow religion and don't carry out attacks but religion is often linked to terrorist attacks.

There was a family who kept a Chimp called Travis. They let him watch violent movies. He went mental and bit one of their friends hands off and ripped her face off.

Disgraceful and terrible news. It’s time we really started to have a look and put serious restrictions or censorship on violent computer games and movies.

I unfortunately saw a part of the horrific content and I feel sick.

Sad sad day.

Bad shit.

Is it easy to get guns in NZ?

Not really, bit like most countries really. NZ has got pretty stringent rules around buying firearms, but Its relatively straight forward to get something like a rifle. Its much harder to get a pistol (pretty much have to prove you are part of a sport shooting club), its more difficult to get a semi-auto and Im pretty sure full autos are banned. Most private firearms owned in NZ are used primarily for hunting, sport shooting and pest control.

That saying just like any country there is a criminal and if somebody is determined enough...

I know what you are saying, but the percentage of people who play and watch regularly compared to taking it to a level like this are so minute it isn’t even worth considering. Imo

I'm not so sure he was unhinged. He obviously has an ideology he believes in. Unhinged suggests he was facing some sort of mental issue.

Now I know to us anyone who does something like that would seem crazy/ is crazy. But he's influenced by something he believes in. It was motivated not by mass recklessness but a systemic hatred for non-white people and in this case specifically muslims

Very true, even to live stream it, question is will there be another attack by this lot? As I dont think he was alone

But guns need better monitoring in this world.

The live streaming they could, I mean they get the boxing closed down quick enough when its on box office.

A few times. Not on this scale mind. The most recent I can think of was a black bloke. Think he shot an innocent woman and possibly a police officer.

Society has always been fucked up tbf. But for people to deny what we see/are exposed to is in influential is a bit silly.

Aye but the boxing is a massive scheduled event.

This is just someone switching on their phone to a forum or webstream.

Oh agreed. That's why we all have to work hard to uphold the rules of civil society and challenge horrible attitudes that can end up feeding into, or even developing into, this kind of mentality whenever we see them.

Agreed...
