A gunman opened fire in a mosque in New Zealand on Friday and there were several casualties, media reported, after police deployed armed officers in response to shots fired in the center of Christchurch city.

German paper says at least 4 suspects (3 men, 1 woman). A car with a bomb has been discovered, and supposedly a racist manifest was published shortly before the attack.

Fucker live streamed it and had an AMA on 8chan right before.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

What is an AMA?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

What is an AMA?
Ask me anything.  Basically an open Q&A session for anyone who wants to ask the person questions about their field of expertise/experiences.  It's a Reddit thing.
"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

"Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did."

This is a bad one, forty dead  :(

What did he say? I'm a wannabe terrorist that will go on a shooting spree later, ask me anything?

Out of a morbid curiosity I looked at what Fox had to say.  This is the banner headline

QuoteAt least 40 dead in 'terrorist' shootings at 2 New Zealand mosques, 4 nabbed, IEDs found

Then there was something attacking AOC for criticizing "thoughts and prayers". :rolleyes:

Apparently the Australian guy said/wrote that he chose New Zealand as target to show that mass migration exists even in the most remote corners of the world.  :wacko:
