I have little sympathy for Rodney Howard Brown who I knew in the early 1990's before he became a megachurch pastor. He embraced word-of-faith-theology and was a strong advocate for the practice of slain in the spirit, my friend PO1 William "Chip" Nagel He and his wife Adonica's children played with sons at times.
That being said having viewed some of Brenton Tarrant's copious rantings, he seems to have been motivated by hatred of Muslims primarily. While despicable, that has little to do with conservatism or liberalism.
Brenton Tarrant apparently used kinetic weapons against individuals instead of using the explosive laded van he had which would have killed more including some outside presumably.
It is noteworthy that Brenton Tarrant hails from Australia which has very strict gun laws and a higher percentage of Muslims that new Zealand.
He chose his targets in Christchurch, New Zealand which had much less restrictive gun laws. While radical, Brenton Tarrant and his unnamed co-conspirators seem to be calculating in terms of planned outcomes. The fact that Brenton Tarrant surrendered instead of going down in a gun-battle was noteworthy. He no doubt wants to use ten bully pulpit of a trial for helping get to the end game that is in his mind.

I hope that the support network which assisted Brenton Tarrant will be identified and captured.
Prayers for the people of Christchurch.
What do you think?

Wild? Maybe. Preposterous? Maybe. We'll have to wait and see (which is something that propagandists simply won't do)

Was unaware the shooter was a conservative. Thought he was an eco-fascist. Putting that aside, Rodney Howard-Browne claims that the recent terrorist attack in New Zealand is actually a “false flag is idiotic. Trump would do well to distance himself from fringe elements.

Economist is a lie that is being pushed by the White house. Think about who brought that up. Nobody with direct knowledge has pushed that, just the political flacks in the US, He is very openly a white supremacist.
Can I ask where you heard he was a Eco-terrorist, Is the some evidence of that?

If that was his mission why all the White supremacist propaganda on his manifesto and even painted on his weapons? Why target mosques not pouters?

1stSgt Nelson Kerr It was in his own words. He's not a conservative as he thinks it's corporatism.
