In my padlet You will see various Images, videos, and articles about the topic. This will also include a short summary of what you will see on each post. I am warning you that this is a sensitive subject.

This video was taken from yahoo. It shows one of the politicians who is demonstrating a form of racism towards the victims who were wrongfully shot. During his statement a child then hits the person for saying such ignorant things and the politician reacts back by violently attacking the child. The video shows how corrupt the government may be. This may take away the stigma when the mass murderer goes to court because then they know that the who world is watching. The families and the victims deserve justice, and this is just the start of that justice (exposing this racism).

UPDATE: March 18, 2019, 8:31 a.m. EDT Updated with information on the GoFundMe to raise money for the teen.
One Australian teen gave the world a much-needed moment of catharsis on Saturday, egging Australian senator Fraser Anning over his reaction to the horrific Christchurch, New Zealand mass shooting and taking a punch in the face for his efforts.

Video of the incident, showing the teen sliding up behind Anning while he spoke to reporters, immediately went viral. The teen splats an egg on the back of Anning's head, filming the whole thing with his phone, which prompted Anning to spin around and throw a punch at the kid.

The egging was almost certainly in response to Anning's awful statement to the New Zealand mosque shootings, which killed 49 people on Friday.

In the wake of the tragedy, Anning issued a statement directly blaming Muslim immigrants for the attacks, saying, "The real cause of bloodshed on New Zealand streets today is the immigration program which allowed Muslim fanatics to migrate to New Zealand in the first place."

The grotesque response, as well as statements he made on Saturday about the killer, are so steeped in Islamophobia and racism that a single egg seems far too kind. Punching the kid multiple times also seems like a poor response but here we are.

So now the teen, punch to the face and all, has quickly become the latest internet folk hero. There's even a GoFundMe fundraiser for the teen because of course there is. Aiming to raise $2,000 for him to pay any potential legal fees and "buy more eggs," it had eclipsed $5,000 by 11:00 a.m. U.S. Eastern Time Saturday morning. (On Monday, as the total amount approached $50,000, the teen said he would be donating most of the money to victims of the massacre).

And Twitter responded in kind, too.

According to media reports, the teen was released by police without any charges being filed.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison condemned Anning's comments, tweeting that they "have no place in Australia."

The remarks by Senator Fraser Anning blaming the murderous attacks by a violent, right-wing, extremist terrorist in New Zealand on immigration are disgusting. Those views have no place in Australia, let alone the Australian Parliament.

- Scott Morrison (@ScottMorrisonMP) March 15, 2019

In the wake of the attacks, several efforts are underway to support the local Muslim community in Christchurch, including one by the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh. Following 2 hate-inspired shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue that killed 11 people, the Muslim community in Pittsburgh raised thousands of dollars in support.

This Article from Buzz feed news explains who the live video of the shooter has been banned from reddit. Reddit is an underground social media site that shows things that are typically blocked from sites like CBC or BBC. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people who wish to watch this act of violence. By taking the live video down it raises the awareness of how sick others around the world really are. There are many people who are out there praising the man who shot these 50 victims. By taking the video down it promotes peace rather than violence.

Reddit / Via Reddit

Reddit banned the subreddit /r/watchpeopledie on Friday morning after users shared links to videos featuring the Christchurch mosque massacre.

Reddit banned two contentious but popular groups that regularly featured human injury and death following the widespread sharing of videos of the New Zealand terrorist incident on Friday.

The social network moved to eliminate the /r/watchpeopledie and /r/gore subreddits less than 24 hours after a shooter killed at least 49 people at two mosques in Christchurch and streamed the event live on Facebook. Internet users were able to capture the video before Facebook took it down, uploading clips of the incident on platforms including Twitter and YouTube. People then shared links to those videos in the now-banned Reddit groups, which critics and some Reddit users had questioned for years.

"We are very clear in our site terms of service that posting content that incites or glorifies violence will get users and communities banned from Reddit," a company spokesperson said in a statement. "Subreddits that fail to adhere to those site-wide rules will be banned."

Reddit's decision to remove /r/gore and the seven-year-old /r/watchpeopledie subreddits illustrates the tensions social networks face as they police content that violates their rules in real time. Since the incident, Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter have all struggled to keep video of the massacre from spreading, playing a game of digital whack-a-mole as users uploaded content that continued to avoid the detection of algorithms and content moderators.

On Thursday night, a Reddit spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that /r/watchpeopledie, where links led to videos of people being executed or hit by cars, was allowed on the site because it provided a service to members - some of whom the company said were medical professionals or first responders - to learn about or cope with death. By Friday morning, however, Reddit moved to end /r/watchpeopledie, which had more than 300,000 subscribers, and /r/gore, as a result of members continually linking to videos of the New Zealand incident while moderators failed to act or even encouraged their posting.

"The video stays up until someone censors it," one moderator on /r/watchpeopledie wrote Thursday night. "This video is being scrubbed from major social media platforms but hopefully Reddit believes in letting you decide for yourself whether or not you want to see unfiltered reality."

The web has long offered places to share graphic imagery, from Rotten.com, a now-defunct website where users could post shocking photos of dead bodies, to mainstream platforms like Twitter, which allowed the proliferation of terrorist beheading videos on the grounds that they were newsworthy. Among popular internet sites, Reddit has gone further than most, allowing communities that share and comment on subjects ranging from pornography, incels, and death. At times, Reddit has removed controversial groups, including one encouraging fat-shaming and another that promoted the Pizzagate child trafficking conspiracy, for violating various aspects of its terms of service.

These decisions have always led to debate among users and sparked arguments about free speech on the platform. Reddit, as a private company, has no legal obligation to protect users' rights to free speech.

A Reddit spokesperson declined to say whether more channels would be banned in light of the sharing of details or information glorifying the New Zealand massacre, but noted the company would be proactive in attempting to track users and groups that broke its terms of service. Critics, however, said the company was only acting in light of the negative publicity surrounding the deadly shooting.

"The only thing that changed between yesterday and today was Reddit getting negative publicity about those subreddits existing," a Twitter user named Colin Sullender wrote. "The platform has turned a blind eye towards the content there for years, much of it far worse than the NZ shooting video."

@RMac18 The only thing that changed between yesterday and today was Reddit getting negative publicity about those subreddits existing. The platform has turned a blind eye towards the content there for years, much of it far worse than the NZ shooting video.

A Reddit user who asked to be identified as "Alex" said she had followed /r/watchpeopledie for a a few weeks, watching footage that included videos of people being shot and set on fire in executions. The videos she said, helped her understand the "actual cost of life."

"But when I watched clips of the New Zealand video - it became even more devastating," she said to BuzzFeed News. "It made right-wing extremism not just something [on] paper."

"I think people would take the shooting a lot more seriously if they saw the video," she added.

Elizabeth Weeks, a Seattle-based attorney and moderator for the subreddit /r/changemyview, a group that attempts to present different views to subscribers who have a set opinion about certain topics, said that while she didn't have to deal with filtering out illicit content associated with the Christchurch shooting, she saw both sides of the issue.

"I really worry a lot about the velocity of how these things are posted and how they can have a normalizing effect," Weeks said. "But I also do understand the more pro-libertarian view about there being no harm if you're not acting [upon what you're watching]."

Weeks, who sometimes deals with users who say they are suicidal, said that interaction with Reddit has improved over the last few years. She added that she has sympathy for the company because of the number of communities and people it is dealing with. But tech companies have often waited to improve communication and moderation until they're facing scrutiny and media coverage for their failings, and it's unclear if there's a scalable solution to moderate their billions of users.

"I'm actually of the mind that the solution to this problem is to slow down conversation and perhaps break off networks into smaller pieces," Weeks said.

After The Proliferation Of The New Zealand Shooting Video, Reddit Has Banned Two Channels Showing Human Death

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Reddit banned two contentious but popular groups that regularly featured human injury and death following the widespread sharing of videos of the New Zealand terrorist incident on Friday. The social network moved to eliminate the /r/watchpeopledie and /r/gore subreddits less than 24 hours after a shooter killed at least 49 people at two mosques in Christchurch and streamed the event live on Facebook.

This article from BBC news explains what is known about the suspect from the shooting. One of the most suspicious things was that this person had only owned a fire arm since 2017. This is concerning because this means that this person was not raised with proper gun etiquette. Meaning that this person was not using the gun for anything other than violence. In the picture shown you see an officer holding a fire arm. The photo makes sense because this is a trained professional who is surely trained on the proper safety tactics and use of a fire arm.

The Christchurch mosque attacks were live-streamed on the internet by a man posting online under the name Brenton Tarrant. He said he was Australian.

Distressing footage shows him firing indiscriminately at men, women and children at close range inside the Al Noor mosque on Friday.

The individual had previously posted a rambling and expletive-filled document, espousing violent right-wing ideology.

A day later, the 28 year old appeared in court in Christchurch, charged with murder.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the suspect had "travelled around the world with sporadic periods of time spent in New Zealand" and that he was currently living in Dunedin, south of Christchurch.

"I would not describe him as a long-term resident," she said

"The offender was in possession of a gun licence. I'm advised that this was acquired in November of 2017."

She said New Zealand intelligence services had been stepping up investigations into far-right extremists, but added: "The individual charged with murder had not come to the attention of the intelligence community nor the police for extremism."

Brenton Tarrant appeared in court in Christchurch in a white prison uniform. He was remanded in custody, with no bail application made.

State-appointed lawyer Richard Peters says the defendant fired him and wanted to represent himself.

"The way he presented was rational and someone who was not suffering any mental disability," Mr Peters said. "He seemed to understand what was going on."

Attack streamed live

The man in the footage equipped himself with what appears to be a head-mounted camera to live-stream the attack in central Christchurch.

The streams were broadcast online, including briefly on Facebook, showing the violence in graphic detail.

A song which played in the suspect's car is known as a marching anthem for Serbian nationalist paramilitary units known as Chetniks during the 1992-95 Bosnian war.

It praises Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, who was convicted of genocide and war crimes.

The names of men convicted of killing Muslims and migrants are written on the suspect's weaponry.

One item has the words "For Rotherham" written on it, a reference to a child abuse scandal in the UK, while other wording references historical battles between European countries and the Ottoman Empire.

Online activity

Australian media reported that Brenton Tarrant was originally from Grafton, a town 600km (370 miles) north of Sydney, and had previously worked at a fitness facility.

"He never showed any extremist views or any crazy behaviour," his former boss, Tracey Gray, told Seven News.

The 16,500-word document he posted is entitled The Great Replacement - a phrase that originated in France and has become a rallying cry for European anti-immigration extremists.

In it, the man says he began planning an attack after visiting Europe in 2017 and being angered by events there.

Specifically, he references a lorry attack carried out by an Islamic State sympathiser in Sweden, France's decision to elect the moderate Emmanuel Macron as president, and ethnic diversity in France.

Despite insisting that he is not motivated by fame, he acknowledges that he intends to survive the attack, and hopes it will spread fear.

He chose the Al Noor mosque as his target three months ago, the document says.

The central tenet of the conspiracy is that "European peoples" are dying out and being "replaced" by immigrants with a different, inferior and dangerous culture, says the BBC's Dominic Casciani.

This is basically a code for hatred or fear of Muslims - part of the theory is that states and corporations are encouraging "white genocide" by pushing up immigration rates to keep global capitalism going, says our correspondent.

Travels abroad

Brenton Tarrant has travelled frequently, venturing to North Korea, Europe, Turkey and Pakistan.

Bulgarian prosecutor general Sotir Tsatsarov said he visited Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia in 2016, stopping at historic battle sites in the area.

He returned to Eastern Europe in November 2018 where he saw more historic sites in Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania. Mr Tsatsarov said Bulgaria is now investigating whether he had ties with people in the country.

Turkish officials have confirmed he visited Turkey several times, and reportedly said an investigation was under way into his "movements and contacts within the country".

A hotel owner in the far-north of Pakistan told the BBC that Brenton Tarrant had spent two nights in the area in October 2018.

Syed Israr Hussain, who runs the Osho Thang hotel, said Tarrant expressed no visible hostility to Muslims or Islam.

He said he was travelling alone and "walked around the local area" taking pictures like any other tourist. The area is popular with trekkers.

A now deleted post on Mr Hussain's social media account from last October is attributed to Brenton Tarrant and reads: "Pakistan is an incredible place filled with the most earnest kind hearted and hospitable people in the world."

Mr Hussain said Brenton Tarrant left those comments "for the world to see". He added he was "shocked" by the attack in Christchurch.

There are also reports that Tarrant visited Afghanistan and China's Xinjiang region.

What about the others in custody?

Four people were arrested in the aftermath of the attack - three men and a woman, who was subsequently released without charge.

Police say they do not believe they were connected to the attack.

Of those, two remain in custody:

a man who apparently went to help carrying a rifle, who has been charged with a firearms offence

an 18-year-old, who appeared in court on Monday, charged with distributing the live-stream

Prime Minister Ardern said none of those in custody had been on active security watch lists in New Zealand or Australia.

"I have asked our agencies this morning to work swiftly on assessing whether there was any activity on social media or otherwise, that should have triggered a response," the prime minister said.

This story show is about how the prime minister of Newzealand plans to change the gun laws. Ironically this story came from the New York times. Which is a city in the United states (they have the second amendment which is the right to bare arms). This may strike the readers of New York because they may not agree with that. The picture (again) shows a person mourning. Many social media platforms have chosen pictures like these to show how the deaths of nearly 50 people have affected the lives of others. I believe they choose these pictures to make people understand what emotions the victims families are going through.

This video was taken from facebook. It is a video clip from Global news. They were on the scene of people paying their respects to the victims who lost their lives during the mosque shooting. This video is taken place in wellington, Newzealand. As you can see there are many cameras out covering this event, not only Global news.  The power is in the people affected first hand who stand in a circle with arms linked together to celebrate the lives of those who have been lost in the event of the mass shooting. It is very sad that so many people were affected.

In this Video, it shows the mother of the shooter watching the live stream of her son Taking the lives of innocent people. She refuses to watch the rest of the video because it is a hard thing to watch. She states in the video that her son deserves the death penalty because its only fair. He took so many lives, therefore his life should be taken as well.  This video was originally a clip from an interview through a news source. The video clip was taken from twitter. Since twitter is a large social media platform it is not surprising that this was floating around.

In this YouTube video (taken from YouTube) it shows a prayer that was held for those individuals affected by the shooting. The video is 49 minutes long and consists of a speech given for the victims who now lay in their graves. This video is very important because not only are the people who were close to the victims affected, but so were people who practice Islam.  When religion is involved it does not only affect the family members but also others world wide who may be subjected to this kind of repetitive discrimination.  This a very powerful speech given to ease the minds of family, friends, and people worldwide who have been affected by the event.

This Picture was taken from Instagram. Another popular social media platform which is used more frequently these days. The image shows a woman mourning a victim that she has lost. The caption states how people who commit a crime as awful as this one is “disgusting”. As any sane person would agree.  This is another strong picture showing how powerful this event was. This is something that could have been prevented but instead people have lost their lives as well as family members, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances. This picture makes you think about how hard it would be to lose a person through a mass shooting.

This image was also taken from google. The original post was from an Indian news sight. In this image it shows a man hugging another person who has been highly affected by this shooting. You also see lots of flowers that have been placed in order to mourn the lost victims of the mass shooting. This image is important because it shows how effected people truly were during this time.  It is important not to only feel for the victims but also for the families because they were also victims in this massacre. Justice needs to be provided for the victims and their families.

This image was taken from google. Originally found on YouTube through Australian nine news. As you can tell the image depicts the emergency vehicles that were first on the scene to the mass shooting. The image includes many St. Johns ambulances because there was nearly 50 people who were murdered by the shooter. This is a very important piece of the story because they needed not only 1 ambulance but most likely around 25. Enough to save/ take bodies away. This image is powerful because it helps people understand how severe the situation really was (because they needed so many ambulances).
