Might be multiple shooters and multiple mosques. Such a tragic situation.

Shot a room full of people
Went out to car, reloaded
Went back and shot same people again

Thoughts and prayers?

Great story from NPR about Inuit people's way of parenting their children
*Wanted to post it somewhere.
https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2019/03/13/685533353/a-playful-way-to-teach-kids-to-control-their-anger
Quote:

Across the board, all the moms mention one golden rule: Don't shout or yell at small children.

Traditional Inuit parenting is incredibly nurturing and tender. If you took all the parenting styles around the world and ranked them by their gentleness, the Inuit approach would likely rank near the top. (They even have a special kiss for babies, where you put your nose against the cheek and sniff the skin.)

The culture views scolding — or even speaking to children in an angry voice — as inappropriate, says Lisa Ipeelie, a radio producer and mom who grew up with 12 siblings. "When they're little, it doesn't help to raise your voice," she says. "It will just make your own heart rate go up."

Even if the child hits you or bites you, there's no raising your voice?

"No," Ipeelie says with a giggle that seems to emphasize how silly my question is. "With little kids, you often think they're pushing your buttons, but that's not what's going on. They're upset about something, and you have to figure out what it is."

I'm a bit younger than you and I ask, "how do you still do it every day?" All this murder and hate makes me feel three decades older.

Not to be political but that was exactly why
I cannot stand Trump or his people
Racists Hatemongers Predator Capitalists

The WORDS Trump uses are vile and worse than any relative
Someone has but won't talk to

His words create-incite violence. Full of separation

I felt with Democrats in charge there was semblance of Humanity
Shared struggle etc

Democrats know there are people who struggle to eat and include them
Republicans are concerned about people who want tax shelters for their yachts and mansions

I cannot comprehend the level of abuse Republican voters will continue to ask for over and over

But this is also a Facebook, Google, Twitter, etc. problem. Those American corporations profit from curating the kind of hate that helped lift Trump into the W.H. The issue is bigger than Trump and the GOP.

MSM is going to misconstrue a lot of his manifesto. I went through a lot of it and its littered with memes and internet jokes. However the underlying racism and (bleep) up views on ethnicity aren't coded at all.

They have their own Trump influencing the public
https://www.vox.com/2019/3/15/18267077/australian-senator-new-zealand-attack-muslims-immigrants

Quote:


I wonder if there will be as much outrage from the left wing when the next Muslim terrorist attack occurs?

Most likely silence and talk about “lone wolf attacks, mental illness and no connection to Islam”.
— Senator Fraser Anning (@fraser_anning) March 15, 2019
https://twitter.com/fraser_anning?lang=en
Anning was elected in 2017 to represent a rural area of Queensland, and has a history of making inflammatory and racist comments. He was kicked out of his political party in October 2018 after he made an immigration speech in August questioning Muslim and non-English-speaking immigration, and called for a “final solution” to the problem, an apparent reference to Hitler.

I'm not familiar with the true teachings of the Muslim religion. I'm not sure many here in the forum are. I've never read The Qur'an. How many in the forum have? It's time to stop hating a religion we have no understanding of.

^^^^ The Wild Wild West. Not good.

Don't let those who want this win. If you start to carry for protection you will only put you and your family in more danger.

I agree with you and you are 100% in the right. Its just that we live in a society that doesn't make the strides to put a ban on ALL firearms.

That means there are people out there who are now more and more radicalizing
that have access to these guns. things are not getting better.....

That same society allows a need for home protection. I'm from the school of banning weapons made for war. Who needs a Uzi, Ar-15 and such?

Have you seen THIS. A man with his child on his chest a women with children's stroller walking around in the same area that shows a man with a high power rifle strapped to his back. We can't come to that.

Where are all the politicians to condemn Anti-Muslim violence?

Are they not allowed to condemn anything except Antisemitism?

The bad thing is that if there's a "sleeper" in NZ, he'll probably try to respond in kind. Another vehicle ramming or targeting a concert or something. This sh only perpetuates blowback, which is probably an objective of the hick who did this. Common citizenry are the ones who will suffer for it.
