This belief is rife online. Platforms need to be more vigilant against those with an agenda into promoting such beliefs.

Er, read the article again:
Australian Brenton Tarrant, 28, a self-avowed white supremacist, has been charged over the attacks and is currently undergoing psychiatric testing to determine if he is mentally fit to stand trial.
This is the type of hate speech that the terrorists thrive on.
Oddly, I never had any problems with various Muslim friends, colleagues, employers. The tactic to divide and conquer doesn't work when you actually live, love and work alongside your fellow human beings.

And a reminder that it's important to counter the falsehoods that some try to promote about this man and his agenda.
A right-wing extremist who filmed himself on a shooting rampage that left 49 mosque-goers dead flashed a white power gesture as he appeared in a New Zealand court Saturday charged with murder. The former fitness instructor and self-professed fascist occasionally turned to look at media present in court during the brief hearing that the public were excluded from for security reasons. Flanked by armed police he made an upside-down “okay” signal, a symbol used by white power groups across the globe.

He also seemingly made donations to far right groups in Austria

i don't understand who decide or determine weather he is mentally fit or not, they should just chop his head really and show it to the world which i doubt that they will do. in the end they will say he have mental problem and put him in hospital what a joke.

Which, besides being absolutely barbaric, will make a martyr out of him. He needs to be put away for life and out of the public consciousness.

He travelled to another country to kill as many people as he could that fitted his warped agenda. Mentally astute enough to do that and obtain a shooters licence, think he might be cognitive enough to be put on trail serve his time and be deported back to Australia. Hardly a role model of evolutionary mental capacity. Hate feeds hate pretty simple math. But beyond this mans mental gymnastics.

Aye, and where does it fester the most?
Again, RIP to the victims of this act of terror. To all the victims of terror.

Muslim is a terrorist. White supremist is a misguided.
Toasted Heretic
That appears to be the narrative from those who seek to capitalise on such horror.
Haaa Nemui
This is where this idiot failed immensely. After this event in NZ, everybody opened their arms for each other and basically said "screw you, you aren't getting this" to extremists everywhere.

Guns were banned overnight.

ergh.. no they were not, particular firearms sales were halted.

@farhan,
I think Goodlucktoyou was being sarcastic. (I hope he was.)
