As a Kiwi overseas I hope people rise up in mass to support what will no doubt be mostly families who come from overseas or as refugees, many from spots such as Somalia, Syria etc where this sort of violence is common.

Got home safely, so that's good.
I hope we don't over or under react. I wouldn't deport the terrorist any time soon - Aussie won't be able to imprison him so he'll just walk. He might get life without parole - if there was ever a car for it, this is it.
Of course they’d be able to imprison him, they’ll have anti-terrorism laws.
Only if we deport him without a trial. If he's tried and convicted, double jeopardy would apply.

Yeah there is no need for semis in sport shooting, so I'm happy for them to go, always have been. And I've been shooting since I was a nipper.
Yeah , I'm not a fan of them either. Duckhunters might be pissed but I doubt theres much difference in the time it takes to rack another round with a pump action The kick from steel shot that you don't get so bad with a semi auto is probably more of an issue and if it is you are indeed a pussy.

That paddy Gower live feed just before was horrific
Taking to an older couple outside the cordended area who can’t get hold of their son. He won’t answer his phone or reply to texts. They knew he was in the mosque that suffered 30 fatalities.
Just to make it worse paddy told them how many were killed there.
Just fucking aweful, everyone watching would be thinking the same thing, he’s probably one of those killed.
I like pads but by fuck that was so unnecessary, shouldn’t have been exploited like that. -
Ah guys, so so sad hearing this from UK.
Horrible to hear of this happening anywhere in the world but NZ is a shock. I hope your communities stand strong and supportive and you all keep safe wherever you are. -

Can I also say, as someone who generally can’t stand her, the PM did very well at the press conference tonight. Nicely done Cindy.
Same, a journalist tried to lead her down a shifty path and she avoided it and spoke well.
-
Good balance between clear info and where she didn't know or was unsure about sharing. Fuck me there were some dumb questions.
Also join the utter condemnation of that aussie politician. What an utter fucktard.

I thought it was only 14. 40? Fucking hell....
The PM did a great job in her press conference. I couldn't do that, I would have sworn about seven times and gone full Ric Flair until someone pulled me off stage.

There’s been 2 - 3 times I’ve found myself yelling at one of the interviewers to just be quiet and let the witness finish (Lisa Owen) or to stop asking some horrific yet inane question along the lines of ‘how they felt [watching it]’.
-
Just woke up to this news. Shocking.
-
the number dead is just staggering, just numb thinking about it...sure it was inevitable an act of terrorism would hit our shores, but, just...yeah, um
I simply struggle to understand the reasoning for anyone to do this, what do they think this will achieve?
Surely they will be imprisoned and never set foot as free men again, likely need to be kept in isolation, not only for thier safety (grrr) but so they cant try to preach whatever shit they are selling to anyone else.
Just numb...

@taniwharugby bugger the isolation, let them be beaten to death!!!
-
@taniwharugby innocence lost aye. I mean we've had really shit stuff happen as discussed earlier in the thread, but this is another level. Seems the fuckers wanted to use that against us to show nowhere is safe from this shit. Just utterly heartbreaking.

Nah , imagine every birthday every Xmas everyone you know is out having a good time and getting on with their lives and instead you’re wondering if a mars bar does a better job of getting the taste of your last blow job better than a Moro .

It's shocking to happen in NZ, but was a matter of if not when, sadly. I was in the military in the UK at the end of the troubles, have done a ton of ops in shitty places where this happens all the time, know people directly involved in all the shit recently in Europe, but man having happen back in NZ. All down to fucking extremists who can't live and let live
