Blaming The Jews for the actions of a White Nationalist? Isn't that a half step away from blaming Hitler and WWII on Jews? I know that it's just nonsensical anti-Semitism, but you'd think that even racists would want to appear to be somewhat sane?

Ummm, didn't the article say they would NOT turn in their guns or did you not include the sarcasm smiley?

Pump action shotgun loaded with buck shot is far more deadly than an AR15.....so what are they trying to accomplish exactly?

Ebba Åkerlund was a Swedish 11 year old girl who was brutally dismembered and murdered by a beer truck driven by a man who recently was turned down for refugee status and who had sworn allegiance to ISIS. 3 other people were killed and many injured. She was walking home from school.

The Christchurch shooter had her name written on his rifle with the word revenge.

Apparently according to this article white supremacists have used her death as a rallying point.

Unfortunately violence begets more violence.

Interesting how US news omitted this information.

6 in court for sharing Mosque shooting video on line in New Zealand. They were not in any way involved with the shooting, they are charged with distributing an objectionable video.

Face 14 years in prison. Held without bail.

I forget our freedoms here in the US and how easy it could be to take away.

No wonder authoritarian moves were made right after the shooting.

China influence over New Zealand. Who would have thought.

Hmm. According to Wikipedia, 'asian' makes up about 12% of the New Zealand population, which I'm going to take with a grain of salt as the various percentages of ethnic groups listed in the entry total to 111%. Some other articles/studies mention that the urban populations (i.e., Auckland) are closer to 25% asian. The question is, is the political influence due to urban voting blocks, or is the political influence mainland China's overt/covert meddling?
