Darwin shooting

[Cmarsh]

ABC news reporting up to 5 people shot dead at a Darwin motel.
45 yo male taken into custody.

This never happens here. Wondering what his motive was.

I've received decent knowledge that he's a property developer that is aggrieved for having a development denied in the area he was shooting.

shooting through multiple motel doors at random guests is no way to deal with your anger. That's messed up.

Nothing on tv. Guess reality tv shows are more important than reality itself

Que the American right wing media getting a whiff of this and running the "what if the hotel guests had guns to protect themselves" narrative.

Horrible to have this happen on home soil. Thank god he didn't have access to an assault rifle

I think it's turned out to be his employee. They both work for the company that was confirmed to be on the side of the car the shooter was driving.

Luckily his rampage was around the outskirts of the CBD, not a whole lot of foot traffic where he was shooting.

Typical for darwin - out on parole, drug related no doubt and probably still wearing his jewelry around his ankle.

That's a completely ****ed reason if that's the case.

I know this will be somewhat controversial but had Australia had the US’s gun laws a number of innocent lives could have been saved. Criminals in Australia have no worry getting a hold of weapons but the public have no way to protect themselves. Time for Australia to review

 

[ioppolo]

What they need to do is review the parole system

Nah, not controversial. Just stupid.
