White supremacist mows down mosque in NZ

It is absurd to say that this is Trump's fault. At worst, at most, all you can say is that there are shared sentiments between the "movement" that would spark this and political divisions that yielded Trump's victory. So again, Trump is better characterized as a symptom, not a cause. And only in the furthest comparison.

I'm going to quote this so later on when you reverse course, I will be able to show your blatant hypocrisy.

This has nothing to do with Trump or Trump sentiment at all. It's all on the craziness of these individuals that did the act.

Nuttier than squirrel poo.

The manifesto I linked is positive proof of that.

Quoting this as related but open question for the forum:

At what point do a person’s written statements on the internet become more than an issue of credibility/integrity and more of a legitimate concern that they might do something like this?

Did he have posts prior to the day of the event?

Anti-Muslim sentiment is a part of the MAGA movement. You can't deny that. Doesn't mean Trump supports terrorist attacks on them. That is the kind of false equivalency you can expect, however.
 
I think often times when crazies do things like this, they do so in hopes of setting off a race war. Will this serve as a catalyst right now with all of the anti-immigration sentiment in the world?
There are those that certainly hope so.

Don’t know, I’d say when the statements are a direct threat of violence but even then I don’t want “thought police” monitoring us.
 
It's more like Anti Illegal Immigrant and Anti Muslim Terrorist.
Exactly. They grasp at straws for anything they can cry Trump is racist about. I remember when he was elected liberals crying that Trump was gonna round up Muslim, women would be raped in record numbers, etc. Anything to sooth their butt hurt over Hillary losing.

Not sure I just had the thought reading Granf’s post. I’ll try to check into that.

All these mass shooters are judged crazy after the fact. Just legitimately curious if there are any common rhetorical threads among them that would tend to identify them as planning something ahead of time.
