The president was interviewed on Breitbart this week and talked about how tough are his supporters.
The full quote:
“"I can tell you I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for Trump – I have the tough people, but they don’t play it tough — until they go to a certain point, and then it would be very bad, very bad," Trump said.”
This is the president of the United States threatening people who don’t support him.
Of course he’s inspiring people like this shooter and his co-conspirators.
49 people dead.
Because his “average” feelings were hurt.
Unbelievable.
You are exactly right, TigerLily. It is stunning, the hatred that spews from a man who is supposed to be the leader of all of his people here in the US. But no, he continues to foment violence against those who don't agree with his thuggish ways. What's really disturbing is the number of posters here on CD who can't or won't see it or admit to it. Fortunately, from what I have read on this thread they are in the minority.
The big question - is he an incel. Not even kidding.
His life sounds like that of a lazy entitled millennial and he's a sicko, loser and hypocrite. What are the chances he could relate to women in any meaningful way, yet the basis of his whining is that not enough European people are having children. Where's his wife and kids? Oh, but he worked as a "personal trainer" and travelled the world. How does that lifestyle help to populate his white race, it just sounds individualistic and indulgent.
Frustrated, confused, lonely, aimless young men are prone to radicalization, regardless of where they come from.
When does anyone, realistically, feel safe? What is this concept of feeling safe, anyhow?
"Live your life like you will live forever but be ready to die tomorrow.".
Quite frankly, this thing of feeling safe I take as a misinformed concept that tells people to ignore their instincts.
Supremacy is being of a majority group and telling people immediately after they were targeted due to their identity that no one is safe in order to minimize their reality.
Investigators continue to dig through the madman's manifesto...
The shooter said he specifically chose New Zeland for his attack to show the world that no Muslims are safe anywhere in the world.
Holy crap.
White Supremacists are the biggest threat to western society.
Our Muslim friends and neighbors are understandably scared here. We assured them that we stand by them and all other Muslims here and around the world! Words cannot express our outrage grief and sorrow , for all those innocent lives taken by sick hateful things!
In regards to your blanket last sentence of your post, well,
I'm sure the folks in Madrid, Nice, London, Manchester, Paris, Brussels, Ataturk airport etc, might feel that the radicals of ALL religions in general pose the biggest threats.
I get no one wants to admit that ALL faiths, ethnicities etc have a tiny percentage of dangerous radicals,
but cmon, let's address the root causes of hate and religious radicals!
The human race depends on it!
That sounds much more accurate than early reports of 9. He went back and made sure.

Still not saying it’s anyones fault but his.
I don't know that we agree all that often, but I understand what you're saying. The U.S. does indeed have an influence on people. And, as you said, that doesn't mean that what he did is the fault of the U.S.
You can influence someone, but it doesn't mean that the fault of their actions lies at your feet.

I will not watch the video or read any of this murderer's online ramblings. I don't know why anyone would. These poor people were just there to worship.
Because it's better to hear what they say, even if they are ramblings from someone like this, than live in the dark. How do you learn anything if you don't? Do not misconstrue that last statement.

The scariest part was that he said a whole lot of things in that manifesto that I've seen from some who talk about birth rate and invaders AND a whole lot of things that people on the left have said. Neither side gets to say, "he represents (whatever side)", because a lot of what he said I've seen on this from from extremist left, normal left, normal right, to extreme right. He covered it all - and I would say not to fall into traps - he absolutely wants people to fight about what he said, what he did, and start blaming each other.
Keep in mind, he did some serious trolling in that manifesto. Some parts I think are going to be more difficult to decipher if he meant it, or if he said whatever to stir the pot. It's very clear that his intention was to kill and stir the pot.
What’s also interesting is that there were so many mosques in “Christchurch.”
Many refugees in those mosques that migrated to escape violence, sad.
