Lets recap ...

We've had numerous acts of terrorism and attempted acts of terrorism in our country in past year.

Not by people in a caravan.
Not by people from Mexico.
Not by people from Yemen.
Not by people from Iran or Libya or Syria.
Not by Muslims or "illegals".
Not by Asylum Seekers.

No, the terrorism came from White Nationalist Right Wing Domestic Terrorists who in their own words were radicalized by President Trump, and now New Zealand is dealing with it too.

How many other “magabombers” do we have within our borders?
Nobody even talks about the last one anymore.
If the shoe were on the other foot, Rightwing commentators would never stop talking about it.
