Ahmed the fruit shop seller is a damn brave man for standing up to the shooter and wrestling the weapon off him.

 

 

The shooter that Ahmed wrestled with is also described as a fruit shop owner while some reports say Ahmed was a tobacconist

Maybe it is better to wait until things settle down and the truth emerges.

Are these comments based on religious studies or just hearsay and reckons?

 

 

i lived with muslims in the same house for more than 10 years. We shared bills and chores inc cooking and grocery. 2 of them had the mentality of the msm. 2 of them had the mentality of the hero. One of them i couldn’t get into his mind, not sure where he stood, last i heard he is a medical doctor.

 

i have nothing to do with them now. Too risky.

I was in Christchurch when this happened. It felt extremely tense in the city where we were, collectively (understandably). Surreal. 

 

It's just such a sad and horrible situation.

No matter how difficult we cannot allow these tragedies to fuel the rhetoric of hate. 

 

 

Peace isn’t passive—it’s the most radical act of courage. When we choose harmony over hostility, we rewrite the future.

 

(I asked Copilot to generate a random peacenik quote, because I thought that's what we were doing.)

 

 

I don't use AI




Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

Am a bit concerned people being blocked for just discussion, especially when race was never mentioned or been factored in said discussion

Race and religion was very much on that person's post.

This is the sort of thing I'd keep to myself if I felt this way (which I don't). Feels quite yukky.

This isn't the place for that discussion, nor are you likely to score any brownie points trying to have it. 

 

I'd encourage you to accept it's not tolerated here.

Maybe read other parts of Geekzone and politely exit this discussion.

Sydney Muslim religious leaders refuse to perform funeral rites for deceased killers and in some cases refuse burial in traditionally Muslim cemetery areas:
