Your terrorism has united the world in love.
Even our Prime Minister Scott Morrison, who very recently honoured white Australia policy former prime minister Sir Robert Menzies has condemned your evil actions.
There are politicians, leaders of the world of Australia and here in Tasmania, who while they condemn your actions, continue to create such inequality and spout the same "I'm not racist" racist comments/rhetoric that emboldened you to create such evil.
Perhaps now you, along with racists everywhere, will lay down your weapons of mass destruction, your belief in your supremacy, your precious Manifest Destiny.
Then seriously search your souls for the humanity within.
Listen to children of the world when they recognise war as evil.
When they ask for and encourage us to find love, respect and equality, not only for all humanity but for all creatures great and small and our beloved Planet Earth on which we depend for our very survival, because there truly is no Planet B.

Shameful Blame
I NEVER thought I would see the day when such a volume of people would be blamed for their own deaths, Fraser Anning words on the Christchurch mosque attacks where cruel and heartless through the words he stated to the nation through the media while familes and friends where grieving and suffering.
These are the people who teach our younger generations to hate and become racist.
No baby is born racist. Racism is created by those that were here before them. Fraser Anning's words did not mention that the terrorist was Australian born.
I am ashamed to say he was one of our own people. We need to stand united with all people to put an end to this viscious cycle of discrimintion and hatred.
The people in Christchurch were following their religion innocently, not harming anyone and their lives where taken in a instant.
Men women and children who were just trying to live their lives their own way and due to the spread of racism they are now gone.
My heart goes out to all in Christchurch and New Zealand. Kia Kaha, we stand united with our New Zealand neighbours.
