We know that God hates people who have a lisp:
Now, if forty two thousand Ephraimites were slain for mispronouncing a single letter in a single word, can you imagine how much God must abhor New Zealanders for mispronouncing every single vowel in every single word?

They are worse than the Austrians, Sister. When I first got there, I needed an interpreter, I couldn't understand a word they were saying. But once you understand the vowels, it's like a key to unlocking a secret code. I don't know why they can't speak clearly. Why don't they want outsiders to understand them? What are they up to?

On the other hand...

Multiple mosques were targeted during attacks in New Zealand on Friday, and an armed man reportedly fired back at the shooters in the Linwood area of Christchurch.
The New Zealand Herald reports that the local man with the gun fired on the shooters after they unleashed “multiple gunshots” on the mosque in Linwood. The armed man ran after the shooters, firing two shots at them with “a rifle or shotgun” as they undertook their escape.
