New Zealand

New Zealand is on my "Bucket List." Perhaps the last "great adventure" will be there. I feel like we have to go there within the next 5 years or I will not be able to cross the Pacific.

You should have heard by now 49 people were killed in Christchurch.

Christchurch is the largest city on the South Island of New Zealand.

They were attacked at two separate mosques and was hugely organized.

The people and there were more than one, they have at least 3 people in custody, were far right wing, hate groups. 

It was even broadcast live on Facebook by one of the shooters.

Once again, do not think this could not happen to you.

It could happen anyplace.

It could happen because you are a certain religion. You go to a certain school. You work at a certain place.

And don't blame just one religion. There are practitioners of your faith that could go here in a heartbeat.

There is so much hate now.......And so much fear of people of different religions, races....

Why some would do this knowing their life as they know, will end...Forever?

The Chinese have a saying " May you live in interesting times."

I don't know if this is interesting times....Or scary times?
