   Either a meth lab went up or the Muslim counter-attack just got postponed until they can find a competent bomb maker who hasn't been turned into a bunch of smoking meat chunks.

   My first thought when I heard Christchurch was that it was some kind of militia cell in NZ making bombs in some sort fo attack against their tyrannical government.

   yeah, I figured that too but I've never heard anyone say it before. maybe fire trucks or fire engines is considered politically incorrect now

    I think appliances is old fashioned English speak, and New Zealand (which is the asshole of the Anglosphere) desperately wants to act English.

    New Zealand is pretty far left as far as white countries go, they're more likely to pander to that 'decolonisation' nonsense than trying to lick ye olde empire's boots

    They have severe status anxiety, and will do anything they think makes them look good, relevant and important.

    Christchurch is about the only place on earth where an explosion happens and you don't automatically assume Muslims did it

    over the last decade or so people here have been trying to petition to replace the union jack with the aboriginal flag, or replace the national anthem with 'Waltzing Mathilda'
