There are some on the Web who are thinking they have proof that the New Zealand shooting was a false flag.
I doubt that. I watched the video available on one web page, watching for the clues, but was not convinced. My reaction was the same doubtful one when one famous guy supposedly asked whether a hit on a daycare was a false flag hit. c
Along those lies, I’m reminded of the line spoken by a CIA boss in the movie “The Long Kiss Goodnight”, who is upset about budget cuts to the agency he works for, and how a terrorist incident that kills three thousand people is needed to remedy the situation. So, he says, it’s kind of hard to fake an incident where 3,000 innocent people are killed, so they just have to do it for real.
Yes, that’s right, there were about 3,000 people killed in the September 11 hit on the Towers. Prescient? Some say the birthday of the NSA boss, the same date,
However, the spin that the Mockingbird Press has put on this, that this guy was a white supremacist (obviously?) and all that, is false. He made references to Trump that were played up, but the guy in his own manifesto said that Communist China is the place that he is most aligned to politically. Does that sound like a Trump supporter. No, it does not, obviously.
He also said that he hoped to nudge the Democrats in the U. S. to get serious about gun control and start banning the kind of weapons he himself used in this shooting.
He described himself as an eco-fascist. His objection to immigration, according to what he wrote, was that more people was bad for the environment, and fewer people is good. Race is peripheral to such a motive. Once upon a time, the Sierra Club wanted a lot less immigration for that very reason.
So this is more a hit in favor of the Green New Deal proposed by watermelon Democrats in Congress (green on the outside, socialist red on the inside).
As to the mass killer’s call for more gun control in the United States, it seems like a gang of Republicans –like Lindsey Graham– is joining the Democrats in Congress to rush to fulfill his call.
–And Trump has become a major disappointment to the people that punched his name in the voting in 2016. For one thing, he issued an executive order to ban or restrict bump stocks, like the device used by the Las Vegas shooter. Another, when talking about the series of mass shootings in the States carried out by people diagnosed with mental problems, he said “take the guns first and ask questions later”. BIG BAD FAIL, MR. PRESIDENT! And that in a discussion about confiscation of firearms from people with mental cases.
So Lindsey Graham is working with Democrats to nationalize the most expansive gun confiscation program ever, in the States, with a new “red flag” law. Anybody can make an anonymous complaint against anybody else. A bitter ex-spouse, a busybody neighbor, just anybody at all, can accuse another from behind an anonymous wall to “authorities” and then a judge can order confiscation based on just that one call.
It is an invitation to every single enemy of self-defense to accuse anonymously all who advocate for the individual right of effective self-defense explicit in the Second Amendment, to get their firearms confiscated. A bad guy and neighbor in a poor neighborhood who covets your stuff, for example, can make a call and get the cops to disarm you, so he can have entry free and clear to get your stuff.
Or just for kicks. In the suburbs too. They might not follow through so quick on a rich guy in a gated community protected by armed security, or a famous Hollywood gun confiscation advocate, who contributed to di Blasio’s mayoral campaign. But there will be plenty of the less powerful to suffer such attacks.
They’ve already done it. In Maryland there were 114 incidents of confiscation. In one case, officers who came to confiscate guns shot and killed the target of a complaint. His niece said he was absolutely harmless, just opinionated, and it was an aunt who made the request. So now it’s any family member who advocates for more gun control and more fun confiscation. Who hates his uncle’s regular hunting of moose.

These red flag laws are “pre-crime” laws, and they murder the concept of “equal treatment under the law”. Somebody who makes the wrong joke or expresses a political opinion a judge won’t like, too bad. But what about the trigger-happy cops who “shoot first, and ask questions later”.
This is not something that will make America great again. Same-old slippery slide into the abyss.
