It is critical that we face up to the paradox that this terrorist came from without. It is not acceptable, in my view, for New Zealanders to flagellate themselves and believe that we must have a form of social engineering led by the Ministry of Social Development when, actually, the response of New Zealanders to this tragedy and this hatred was united and exemplary and a beacon to the world. In particular, it would be wrong to introduce British-style hate speech laws without even the exemptions for free and fair debate that those laws have in Britain.
