People can’t believe this Australian politician’s response to the NZ terror attacks

The world woke up to the terrible news today that 49 people have been killed and at least 20 wounded in shootings at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison described an alleged gunman, who had Australian citizenship, as an “extremist, right-wing” terrorist.

But amid all the outpourings of horror, sympathy and sheer disbelief came this from Australian politician Fraser Anning, the independent senator for Queensland.

So while he is ‘utterly opposed to any form of violence … what it highlights is the growing fear within our community, both in Australia and New Zealand, of the increasing Muslim presence.

‘As always, left-wing politicians and the media will rush to claim that the causes of today’s shootings lie with gun laws or those who hold nationalist views but this is all clichéd nonsense.

‘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.’

To which we are temporarily lost for words. Fortunately, these people weren’t.

We were grateful to Jim Felton for also sharing this.

And here’s a little bit more about that Australian politician, from Felicity Caldwell.

And here is the former Australian prime minister, Malcolm Turnbull.

Or, to put it another way.
