COMMENT: By Andrew Dickens
Once again we have found ourselves in uncharted waters after the events of March 15 this year.
A letter written in jail by the man alleged to have committed the heinous crimes that day in the Christchurch mosque is now circulating the internet.
It was written in reply to a letter sent to the inmate by a man in Russia called Alan. It's relatively banal and certainly is no manifesto. But it does demonstrate the level of danger this man poses even in what could be seen as the most innocuous human interaction.
The fact that the letter has been re-posted on the internet shows the worrying level of support for the alleged killer and his actions. That level of support though is more than matched by the level of outrage that has been generated right up to Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.
Combined, it means a man who most of us want consigned to the dustbin of history has once again made his presence felt.
