A gunman who described himself as a "Green Nationalist" and admirer of Oswald Mosley—the leader of the British Union of Fascists in the 1930s—murdered 49 people at two mosques in Christchurch. The shooter's "Manifesto" explained the crime as "a more direct approach to saving the planet from overpopulation" by targeting "a group that is among the fastest breeding segment of humanity." He also expressed admiration of China's one-child policy, but "had to take matters into my own hands because western governments don't have the balls to do what is needed."
CNN was quick to suggest that US President Trump was somehow to blame. John Berman, host of the program "New Day," professed to not blame Trump, but went on to say that "the President is not the killer, per se, but I detect a fear of immigrants similar to what the shooter expressed. And Trump, like the shooter, is white, while most of the victims were brown foreigners."
CNN panelist Joe Lockhart saw a parallel between "the gunman's paramilitary assault and Trump's boast that he has the support of the US Military on his side. I'm not saying that Trump consciously invites anyone to murder immigrants, but couldn't the deranged gunman have thought that he did? Can we afford to absolve an unwitting Trump from all responsibility here? Isn't it our obligation to do whatever we can to silence him?"
Meanwhile, a group of students at New York University conducting a vigil to remember and mourn the victims of the attack assailed a hapless Chelsea Clinton when she dared to join the vigil. They blamed her "Islamophobia" for inspiring the shooter. "You married a Jew," they shouted. "You criticized Rep. Omar for warning everyone about the Jews." Flustered, Chelsea apologized profusely for her "insensitivity" and remarked that "it's so hard to keep up with correct thinking."

Amazing the amount of non coverage Mozlem massacres get when it is Shia vs Sunni mayham. Guess it’s too hard to blame Trump for a 700 year feud.
Of course its Trump’s fault. The media and never-Trumpers believe every bad thing in the world is the fault of Trump!
Trump Delusional Syndrome is real.
when 0bama was busy stirring the war on cops, and some of his worshippers went out and killed cops, did anyone on CNN suggest that 0bama was at fault?
Now that’s funny! Thanks.
Being the 5th post confirms your fine analysis.
Blaming President Trump is like blaming Climate Change on toenail fungus.
I believe those who blame Trump five times will have had five bong hits for each time. The munchies will cause them to eat five Whoppers and have heartburn at a pain level of 2 x 5 = 10, if they can do the math. Your post gets a high five!
HA!!
It's important because he makes clear he's a leftist, communist, socialist, eco-terrorist.
We need to shine light on HIS self-description, to counter the leftist MSM characterizations.
What I heard from a guy from Christchurch, NZ is that you can plug in the original URL into the "way-back machine".
I assume this means copy and paste the original URL?
Exactly!
