This is the second mass stabbing at a supermarket. I am still in major shock about it. Thoughts go out to all affected.

Also the police are treating this as a terrorist. Jesus christ.

more to come but it seems the police were tailing him and shot him a minute after he started stabbing people.

Common sense is not as common as you think.

Haters and wreckers don't like it when good things happen. Goodness knows what he thought he would achieve by this. The police will find out in due course perhaps.

Sounds like they know, but can't say until the court rescinds it's orders

They have confirmed he was ISIS inspired

Police briefing just now kind of indicated this guy was fully monitored 24/7 and there was no external point of contact.

The terrorist is the same person journalist Jared Savage wrote about on August 16, 2021 (NZHERALD)

Title of the article is: "Why Isis supporter who allegedly planned 'lone wolf' attack in Auckland could not be charged as a terrorist"

Can we reduce that lag time?

To say 15 seconds?

I had to look that up. Dunedin guy was in some kind of drug or random psychosis. Forgotten pretty quickly:

Probably not a wild leap to assume it's the same person.

Also given that unless you hand out unreasonable power to lock people up because of what they believe, then it would seem that all that could have reasonably been done, was being done (at considerable effort and expense no doubt).

Jared Savage has confirmed it is the same guy.

There was a gap in the legislation which they are in the process of fixing.
