A British Australian man from New South Wales, Grafton Australia, a small town of 18,000 between Sydney and Brisbane, traveled all the way to Aotearoa New Zealand in Polynesia and attacked a Muslim Mosque yesterday on March 15th, killing 50 people in Christchurch. The terror attack is the largest Mass Murder killing in the history of the NZ nation since the 1800s. The hometown of Grafton of which Brenton Harrison Tarrant is from, is also home to the English Australian "Jacaranda Festival", which celebrates heritage and music from British overseas roots. Investigations are on-going in what has become known as "The End of New Zealand's Innocence", according to Stuff.co.nz.
Media have called Brenton Tarrant's actions, one of the lowest most cowardly in-human acts, and angry public say his shame should be shared by his family and hometown, a gross model of a man, shooting unarmed women, children, and men, with back turned, while they peacefully prayed.
"Even in War, this is a criminal act, you don't shoot women and children, or any civilian non-combatant. The best thing people can do now is help the families in need"
"I am very mad that they bring foreign War to our shores, this is not your area, this is the Polynesian Triangle. Polynesians need to make sure our Pacific areas are secure and safe"
"We need to take care of the people. The News Media is using every angle, we need to take care of our Polynesian communities first and help our neighbors. The root of the problem is not from Polynesia"
"Polynesian Pacific Nations need to move forward, not dwell or indulge in so many non-local problems. Asia is moving fast, building fast. I want to be part of the future. This is exactly the reason why so many nations are flocking to Asian economic partnerships. While some in the west can't get over the past, the East is souring"
"Let's let go of the very popular Race-talk and move forward. I want to design a visionary city for Hawaii, Samoa, as my school project, learn and grow in social media, not be thrown into a storm of bad news and political campaigns every time I search something online. I'm tired of reading about other people's problems, and now, in 2019, its right here in Polynesia"
"Some news has blamed the entire Australian nation it seems, its not fair to blame the town he's from either or his heritage, but this shooting seems very politically motivated. Very much to do with BREXIT populism and anti-Muslim settlement in the UK"
"One News Broadcast blamed Facebook, one News Broadcast blamed ALL of Social Free Media and Gun Laws. The people who were targeted are the ones that are important here. I hope that there are kind neighbors helping them right now. I hope the Polynesian Community can get involved in Christchurch area and help their fellow man. Keep the Peace"

The Muslim crowdfunding site Launch Good has a fund for the families. The money will be distributed by the New Zealand Islamic Information Center.
The Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh has set up a fund for the victims you can also donate to. Last year Pittsburgh's Muslim communities raised hundreds of thousands for Jewish victims of the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting. The Jewish Federation says on its website: "We stand in solidarity with the Muslim community in Christchurch, in Pittsburgh, and around the world"
Tips for Polynesian Community
1. Polynesians are not or rarely linked with middle-eastern Religion, so it is advised to stay away from Muslim Mosque churches. Do not loiter on properties or in surrounding areas.
2. If there is a walking route that family come from school, advise the children to find an alternative route and to not linger directly in front of Mosque Churches.
3. Food is always a way to help anyone in need. Although Foundations and Victim organizations ask for money, the more Pacific community way is to provide meals and show a united spirit.
4. Racial Debate is not the answer, please do not engage in non-Polynesian issues.
