Melb CBD incident

[Bunk Moreland]

Not a terrorism incident

Related to a stabbing in the suburbs this morning

 

[ep2018]

Looks like he stabbed someone, knew his life was over and decided to have a bit of a joy ride before capture.

What a selfish prick taking 3 peoples lives away with it.

 

[HBF]

pretty sure he said one toddler amongst the victims

Terribly sad if this is correct.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Yeah, nah, Stefano. Just sounds like a crackhead lost the plot.

Even if he was just a nutter he could of course have been yelling that given well-known terrorist attacks involving vehicles overseas.

Doubt the witness just made it up

 

[Biggy_Boy]

Yeah, nah, Stefano. Just sounds like a crackhead lost the plot.

I'd definitely be wanting some verification from other witnesses. You wonder what agenda individuals are trying to push in instances like these.

It might not be ideological, but this is terrorism in my book.

If that's what has happened put him away for life.

 

[Beerfish]

What did he say? Thinks it was terrorism or something? Can't listen at work.

Yep I hear ya... "not a planned terrorism attack" is what they were saying.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Yeah, I reckon he was doing whatever he could to goad the cops into following him. Wouldn't be surprised if he screamed that while he was doing donuts as it's probably the most effective way to draw attention to yourself.

This too. Might have just been a dickhead who thought he'd drum-up fervor by associating his acts with terrorism.

What did he say? Thinks it was terrorism or something? Can't listen at work.

He said the guy in the car was screaming "Allahu akbar"

Obviously he's a huge idiot so he probably didn't consider this but his joyride will make his time in prison much worse.

Terrorism is violence to advance a political or ideological agenda, not anything that's terrifying.

 

[ep2018]

Italian tourist claimed he was screaming Allu Akbar(?) and blasting Arabic music as he was driving around.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

If that's what has happened put him away for life.

Driving down a busy Melbourne street in the middle of the day and hitting someone is murder, nothing less.

 

[edgie]

He was apparently shouting Allahu Akbar doing the donuts.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Apparently flying through South Melb earlier today too... must have been all over the joint

 

[Flash of power]

That picture of the pram is ******* haunting. What a piece of shit

That image bought tears to my eyes, just devastating for all involved.

 

[LFC2010]

If that's what has happened put him away for life.

Even better bring back the death penalty and a public hanging just for him.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

This is where if guilty we need the death penalty. Talk about the lowest of lowest scum. Taking innocent lives.

 

[Hamez]

 

[Gough]

How can you say that from the little we currently know?

Coppers have said it's "...a deliberate act, not linked to terrorism."

 

[George]

Bomberboy popped in on page one to ironically post "false flag".

Right, I didn't see that!

 

[Feerits Elf]

Coppers have said it's "...a deliberate act, not linked to terrorism."

So he's just a garden variety murderer then?

 

[Lethality]

Yeah, I reckon he was doing whatever he could to goad the cops into following him. Wouldn't be surprised if he screamed that while he was doing donuts as it's probably the most effective way to draw attention to yourself.

Doesn't mean his faith didn't inspire him to go on a killing spree or to get himself killed.
