Honestly, no one should be particularly surprised. One of the reasons we left Chch, and this was 25 fucking years ago, was the fuckwit skinhead/white power presence that disgusted us so comprehensively. They have been a tolerated presence there for so long that R and I just looked at each other when we heard and knew exactly who it was. I long ago lost count of the number of confrontations, ranging from verbal abuse to outright assault I've personally accrued with these worthless dickheads since the early 90s, both for being a visible weirdo and intervening in their pathetic 4-on-1 assaults on other randoms. The cops have never, ever been interested in dealing with them. They need to wear a lot of shit for the impunity white supremacy has enjoyed for so long.
I'm not a fan of organised religion and Islam is as deeply problematic as any other patriarchal monotheism. But just in case you were wondering, the Chch shooting is not some sort of fucked-up overreaction to the presence of any militant dickswinging Islam in NZ. At all. It just isn't a thing here. Any perceived threat from the Muslim community these perpetrators might cite is a complete fabrication. So no matter what you might read elsewhere, let a New Zealander assure you that this atrocity could not have been more arbitrary or cowardly. Fuck white power, fuck skinheads, and fuck the police for sitting on their hands this long.
