I really hope Australians take this for what it is and don't turn it into another reason to go all nuts about Islam.

Won't happen though. :( Frightening are the ramifications if people get angry.
If anyone is dead than it will be a 100% given that there will be a revenge attack of some description as sad as it sounds.

Hopefully all good people will stand against the racists and the bigots who will leech off this to further their own agendas.

One of the worst things I've seen. I'm only speculating here but from what I heard on the live feed, there seemed to be gunshots just before the cops swarmed in. I reckon the terrorist started shooting which is why they went in.

I could never be as brave as that first officer to go in.
"hey mate, tonight you're going to charge at a man welding a gun to save someone else's life... you may lose your own. You will get no fame, fortune or glory for this. Hope you told your family I love you"
