Says an Australian man did it, but I thought they banned guns there! :boink:
I wonder if it's a terrorist or a white person.
I thought I'd read last year there were more firearms in Australia than they had prior to the Port Arthur shooting. It'll be interesting to see wheat he used, how he got it etc. I'm not savvy on either countries gun laws [sarcasm]but clearly there's not enough...[sarcasm]
Page 6: - Why did you carry out the attack?
...Finally, to create conflict between the two ideologies within the United States on the ownership of firearms in order to further the social, cultural, political and racial divide within the United states.This conflict over the 2nd amendment and the attempted removal of firearms rights will ultimately result in a civil war that will eventually balkanize the US along
political, cultural and, most importantly, racial lines. This balkanization of the US will not only result in the racial separation of the people within the United States ensuring the future
of the White race on the North American continent, but also ensuring the death of the “melting pot” pipe dream. Furthermore this balkanization will also reduce the USA’s ability to
project power globally, and thereby ensure that never again can such a situation as the US involvement in Kosovo ever occur again(where US/NATO forces fought beside muslims
and slaughtered Christian Europeans attempting to remove these Islamic occupiers from Europe).
Page 11: - Why did you choose to use firearms?
I chose firearms for the affect it would have on social discourse, the extra media coverage they would provide and the affect it could have on the politics of United states and thereby the political situation of the world. The US is torn into many factions by its second amendment, along state, social, cultural and, most importantly, racial lines. With enough pressure the left wing within the United states will seek to abolish the second amendment, and the right wing within the US will see this as an attack on their very freedom and liberty. This attempted abolishment of rights by the left will result in a dramatic polarization of the people in the United States and eventually a fracturing of the US along cultural and racial lines.
Page 19: - Won’t your attack result in calls for the removal of gun rights from Whites in the United states?
Yes, that is the plan all along, you said you would fight to protect your rights and the constitution, well soon will come the time.
Just a few thoughts:
- I know this is a gun forum, so we're naturally going to have interest in the weapon used, from normal curiousity.
- I know this is a gun forum, so we're naturally going to have interest in how this event may impact future firearms laws.
- The fact is this act was committed by a criminal. Planned out, and apparently with help from others. Criminals will get weapons regardless of laws. If every firearm on the planet was disintegrated instantaneously, the criminals would use something else to achieve their goals.
It's a weird balance of discussing the gun and the gun laws, vs not playing into the Anti-gun narrative that "it was the gun's fault"...
That video link still works. It is disturbingly similar to a video game; except there is no one shooting back.
That shooter needs to be kept away from society for the rest of his life, however long that ends up being.
Regardless of your feelings about another culture, it is the act of an evil coward to calmly assassinate unarmed people in a place of worship.
Even in Armed Conflict, there are laws/rules/expectations. Those mosques aren't military targets, or full of specific high-value individuals. This was an act of desperation, hate, and cowardice.
If you want to put a tactical/strategic spin on this: the shooter only succeeded in spurring the Muslim extremists to retaliate, and it will cause even more pro-Muslim and anti-gun rhetoric.
Every aspect of this event is detestable.
49 killed, I would join in this discussion but have mixed feelings so will stay out of it, thoughts and prayers to any innocents injured
