To be fair and clarify what Skybird has said, I think what Skybird is saying is that targeting a class of people is becoming more frequent. The newspapers are filled with this very thing. In Pittsburgh Pa, 11 people were killed in a Synagogue while offering morning prayers. Dylann S. Roof, a white supremacist, killed nine African-American churchgoers city’s Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in South Carolina. Most disturbing,on June 17, 2015, the Wednesday when he showed up in Emanuel’s fellowship hall and was offered a seat for Bible study by the Rev. Clementa C. Pinckney. Mr. Roof sat quietly, his head hung low, for about 40 minutes while the group considered the Gospel of Mark’s account of the Parable of the Sower. Then, with the parishioners’ eyes clenched for a benediction, Mr. Roof brandished the .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun he had smuggled into the church in a waist pouch and began shooting. The alleged shooter in the New Zealand attacks mentioned Dylan Roof as the inspiration for his attacks. There are many other attacks and these are just 2 such examples that are hate based killings and attacks and classified as hate crimes and or terrorism. http://www.live5news.com/2019/03/15/...f-inspiration/ https://www.thestate.com/news/nation...227876899.html I don't think Skybird was being callous. Skybird was discussing in a calm, clinical way that incidents of hate motivated attacks are on the rise. That's not to say these attacks are not sad or senseless. As you said Nathaniel and contrary to what Skybird believes, I think most people are decent, moral people. There are a small percentage of people that are dangerous though. I think we are all grappling with these issues right now, searching for the root causes and possible solutions. Last edited by Commander Wallace; 03-16-19 at 10:00 AM. |

This is nothing short of a political stitch up and the scapegoat is hardly surprising.

I wonder how the two events compare in terms of coverage and the outrage.

Don't stray from the mainstream media narrative man! The answer is easy! The Philippines? What coverage? What outrage? 120 Christians killed in Nigeria within three weeks, yawn. https://medium.com/@africaguardian/n...n-ae9fe85badea

A gunman has opened fire inside a tram in the Dutch city of Utrecht. Counter-terror police reportedly say it "appears to be a terrorist attack".

I applaud PM Ardern's handing of one of the biggest's problems with these attacks: giving these crazy morons fame.

It would appear she may not be as innocent as she claims
