Story · [VIDEO] Mourners Perform Haka Dance In Honor Of New Zealand Mosque Shooting Victims

A couple of videos have appeared online performed by random mourners in tribute to the 50 Muslims who died after a terror attack at two mosques in the city of Christchurch, New Zealand.

From bikers, to lone dancers to beach goers, to Maoris and Kiwis; the Haka seems to be the uniting factor in the mourning of the slain worshippers.

Last Friday, a 28 year old Australian white supremacist terrorist named Brenton Tarrant entered Masjid Al Noor, killed 41 people, then drove a few miles away at Linwood Masjid Mosque, and killed seven more. Two people died while receiving treatment at a local hospital, bringing the total to 50.
