I think it will be New Zealand's 9/11. It's changed us forever, things are already changing in terms of airport security and gun laws. It is really sad, and this is not who we are, but I think it was inevitable.

No. I love New Zealand, and I never want to leave. The last place I want to be is on a plane.

A bit. It was a very big shock, but hopefully we can stop this kind of thing from happening again.
