At least 48 people were shot at in New Zealand by 28-year-old, Brenton Tarrant. Worse yet, Tarrant videoed the shooting at the mosques live, in real time. Tarrant, today, has been charged with murder.
Police found two explosive devices found in Tarrant's vehicle, but the assault rifle was his weapon of choice. This is nothing short of premeditated murder as Tarrant posted his plans on social media before livestreaming the murder.
Three other people were taken into custody. It is unclear what if any role they played in aiding the murderer. Tarrant is an extremist with an axe to grind against immigrants. Most of the victims were immigrants. Tarrant published a 74-page anti-immigrant manifesto prior to the attack explaining why he was going to attack the immigrants. Tarrant claims he was inspired by Norwegian shooter Anders Breivik. Idiots of a feather, flock together...
