I'm not sure of the point you're making here. I'm not saying that Iran has ever had an ideal government. The one it has now it wouldn't have if the US hadn't interfered. 

No one is claiming that Iran is great. But think of the situation it's in. America has military bases surrounding it. We violate their airspace regularly. We shot down a civilian aircraft full of people and never apologized. Popular US politicians constantly call for regime change there. Any one of these things would be considered a serious threat if Iran did it to the US. 

Quote:I know atheists are well thought of even among Christians. Please name me any president in American history who ran on "I don't believe in God" and took an oath on "The Origin Of The Species", instead of a bible.

The relevance of this to the current discussion isn't clear to me.

It's a thread about a white supremacist shooter. That's true. 

But things like this have multiple causes. It seems pretty clear that the shooter this time was imitating similar events in the US and elsewhere. Who can say how much people like this are emboldened if the President gives them cause to hope that white supremacy is on the verge of succeeding? 

If the US and the media were unanimous in condemning this sort of thing, fewer people might take it up. But all kinds of commentators, closer and closer to the mainstream, advocate white superiority and justify its cause. Trump makes it more acceptable. US foreign policy for years has made it seem reasonable. Hollywood movies are made in consultation with the Pentagon and teach us that violence is the answer. 

Crazy people get crazy in certain ways, based on what their environment contains. Trump and many others bear responsibility here.

 Yes, he's an Aussie.

We are very embarrassed, not to mention outraged and deeply distressed. Aussies see Kiwis as cousins.

Fekker didn't have the b@lls to take on any natives.

Actually... Am kind of glad the jizz-swizzle made a religious statement.

I don't think we'd be able to stop even a tinny load of p!ssed off Māori's coming back at us in greif and revenge.

Hug and :Heart: to those across the Tasman.

Maybe a proper punishment for this guy would be to let him pick fourteen of his white nationalist buddies, take all their guns away, and have them play a test match against the All Blacks.  Any of them able to walk off the pitch unassisted at the end of the match gets to go home.

The advent of Trump to the White House meant that the Right have achieved a huge victory. He is using the Right to stay up and harvest more supporters.

Rightists have more bravery now because they have a mouth sitting in the head of the US

Not able to access the video  at all; Youtube  advice that it might offend.

Something that President Trump has said might cause offence? Surely not. I'm shocked.   Popcorn

Absolutely horrendous.

Does NZ have the death penalty? I hope so.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.

NO.

New Zealand abolished the death penalty for all crimes, including treason, in 1989.
