It’s been a long ride and despite all your rampant f*ggotry, fecklessness and degeneracy, you are all top blokes and the best bunch of cobbers a man could ask for. The facebook link is below, by the time you read this I should be going live. I will carry out and attack against the invaders, and will even live stream the attack via facebook. The message read, ““Well lads, it’s time to stop sh*tposting and time to make a real life effort post. The 8chan post included a link to what appeared to be the gunman’s Facebook page, where he said he would also broadcast live video of the attack.” The Letter Writing Campaign to Brenton Tarrant was Started on 8chanĪccording to the New York Times, “before the shooting, someone appearing to be the gunman posted links to a white-nationalist manifesto on Twitter and 8chan, an online forum known for extremist right-wing discussions.

Prior to the Christchurch mosque shootings on March 15 that left 51 people dead, Tarrant posted a 74-page, 16,500 word manifesto titled “The Great Replacement” that details his worldview and his justification for his horrific crimes. He ends the letter with “do not forget your duty to your people” On page 5, the letter turns to Tarrant explaining his racist political views and influences and acknowledges that he can’t say too much in the letter otherwise the guards will confiscate it. He then goes on to name his favorite Russian music. Petersburg is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. He says the Russian people were “very welcoming” and says St. Petersburg and through the Golden Circle. He goes on to say that he visited Russia for a month in September 2015. He talks about how difficult it and expensive it must have been to send the letter from Russia and then he praises Russia as one of his “favorite countries”. The letter from Tarrant contains mostly small talk about Russia and his current predicament. “We have made changes to the management of this prisoner’s mail to ensure that our robust processes are as effective as we need them to be.” In accordance with section 108 of the Act, a Prison Director can only withhold a prisoner’s mail in a very limited range of circumstances.

The Department of Corrections also issued a statement saying “we acknowledge that this letter should have been withheld”.

While the letter doesn’t have any specific call to action for violence or instruct the recipient to commit any crimes, it does touch briefly on race and ends with a vague reminder which could provoke a reaction from extremists.ĭespite the letter not clearly violating the prison manual rules, Newshub is reporting that Corrections Minister Kelvin Davis is “angry at his department” for letting the letter out.
