I had only just watched a news update re the U.S. shooting at a uni, then this literally came on - " breaking news ........"

Saw that too. Surprised he didn’t shoot the campaigner once he had the gun in his hands.

Should’ve smashed his head with the butt of the rifle.

Two shooters.
One dead.
One shot and critically injured. Not expected to survive apparently.

There was chopper footage shown with one of them dead on the bridge and the other getting lit up.

campaigners.

Just saw footage of a civilian sneaking up on one of the shooters and disarming him.

Absolute hero.

Needs to carry his balls in a wheelbarrow.

Hope everyone else that frequents here from Sydney are safe, and their loved ones are too.

To target a religious holiday like that, where families celebrate..

No words

There goes our country

Im speculating here, but if someone has an issue with whats happening in other countries and their conflicts. Go over there and deal with it. Dont bring your shit here. All these Palestinian rallys, the Israel shit. Piss it off.

Everyone brings their shit here, even Larry from Liverpool. We obviously need to draw the line at violence of any sort.

Judging by the license they showed in the news, it seemed like it was a representative from the religion of peace. Which is unfortunate, because I think the vast majority that migrated here are moderates who want to escape the shit from that part of the world.

I think it is important to recognise they do pick places like here because the muslims here are for the most part peaceful people, that do not follow the radical sects and their intent is not just to sow fear into the Jewish communities around the world that it is not safe anywhere you go, but they know the local Muslims will get redneck-style reactions from bogans and cop guilt by association and the more people that dogpile on them, the easier it will be for terrorists to radicalise those that haven't done anything wrong but are being victimised regardless.

So whilst I agree with the anger, I hope people show some restraint towards people that had nothing to do with this terrorist act.

Hate and retribution is never the answer.

You all might all be familiar with ‘look for the helpers’. This is so true, beyond the obvious horror, there are many stories already about good (and brave) people putting themselves at risk, going in to help. And when you notice them, there are locals as well as people from all corners of the globe.
