Name one example when Trump has shown any racial bias of racism.

The shooter gunman is "European"? New Zealand is not in Europe, then why did he commit mass murders on non-European land? Mideast Muslim's homes were ravaged by wars, they would go anywhere to survive. War is not good; this terrorist act isn't good either.

"Good people, both sides." Especially when the one side is the Klan.

He quotes the killer's manifesto . He reported on what the killer said.

Even if I don't think Trump is responsible -- there is no denying the killer mentions Trump as some kind of symbol.

It is what it is -- and you slam me all you want. I guess it makes you feel righteous or better -- but the killer said what the killer said/wrote.

Neither google nor FB can stop it. People who are drawn to these messages will find them.

The answer to people like these is not to shut them up. The answer is to counter them in the public square.

You’re saying it’s impossible to be a good person and be in the klan? You have humanity all figured out then?

In this case, yes. You cannot be part of a criminal terrorist organization and still fall under the "good guy" banner.

This guy is ultimately responsible for this own actions but if Trump wasn't President, would this guy have gone through with this heinous act?

Nothing to do with the UK, the Daily Mail a right wing publication is just pinting out the shooters so called constitution and views. I don't see the views of anyone from the UK.

Btw the Daily Mail actually supported fascism back in the 1930's including Oswald Mosley and his British Union of Fascists (BUF) known as the blackshirts, so it's not known for being a liberal publication.
