Banter TRTTT Part 16 - How good are fingerless gloves

[RussellEbertHandball]

A Kiwi ABC senior reporter at Bondi Beach. Been home away from home for Kiwi's the last 50+ years.

No wonder NZ PM in his short statement said - ..... I am shocked by the distressing scenes at Bondi, a place Kiwis visit everyday. .........

Pity the bloke who tackled one of the gunmen, didn't put a bullet up his arse. Looks like he had the opportunity to do so.

Great questions at the presser by who I assume is a Fox News reporter.

“commissioner, how did you miss this?”

Always gotta have someone to blame

I guess thank **** we aren't America with this happening once a week.

Second worst mass shooting in our history.

 

[DSL64]

Should probably be cancelled out of respect for the people killed by nazi *wits at Bondi. * those campaigners

They didn't look like nazi's to me...

 

[JimmyBC]

Did the guy that disarmed that prick get shot by the other arseh*le?

 

[Kickpuncher]

Country is cooked.
Hard to feel safe going outside these days.

That's if you ignore shooting of indigenous Australians, both pre and post 1st January 1901.

7 News reporting the hero at Bondi is Ahmed el Ahmed a fruit shop owner in Sutherland who got shot in the leg it was his hand resting on his leg that was bleeding, and the vision they showed suggested he got shot in the shoulder as well.

Edit confirmed got shot twice and is undergoing surgery.

"Its been reported he's a fruit shop"

So the BBL game who won? lol

Hatred breeds more hatred breeds more hatred.

Nothing good will come of this. Rednecks and Neo-Nazi's will get worse because of it, and potentially violently target members of immigrant communities. Which will then stir up extremist elements of those communities to respond in kind. And it becomes tit for tat.

The whole thing is just sad.

100%. We can all probably guess what ongoing world event triggered a couple of a couple of Arab guys to shoot up a Jewish event. And that event kicked off in earnest because of the October 7 attacks. And the October 7 attacks happened because of the oppression of Palestinians in Gaza that already existed prior to the current war. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

I'm sure all the 'gUeSs wHeRe tHe sHoOtErS wErE fRoM' ****wits populating Facebook comment sections right now will sweep this hero under the rug once they hear his name.

The only thing for sure is that it's a ****ing travesty and tragedy that the never ending issues in the middle east have to spill over in to other countries. 7 decades of it and it's not getting any better. Debating about fault is pointless. It's gone too far. All of it.

I'm not a naive hippy to think it can be fixed overnight but it needs to stay there. The fight needs to stay on the soil they're fighting over. The war and murder and terror. Not this soil. Not any other soil.

Good chance the the cops nearby get confused and shoot at him if the see him shooting a gun.

A succession of Sky News talking heads repeatedly referencing pro-Palestine protests and ‘toxic universities’ as somehow responsible for radicalising a pair of Arab blokes who would’ve been well-versed on the topic well in advance of the recent mainstream societal pivot to “hmm, genocide is bad even if the victims are brown, and a country probably shouldn’t be allowed to do that for years even if they are historically allied to the west, aye”.

Just baffling messaging designed to gin up the usual culture war fückwits.

100%.

I saw footage of when the two were neutralised on the footbridge.

The first civilian to reach them and signal for the cavalry happened to be in a black shirt and have brown skin.

He was initially misidentified as a threat by the first couple of cops, and I think it was the bald bloke who was later seen stomping on one of the actual shooters took a swing at him.

The bravery is even more meritorious, considering.

It's so delicate.

It needs to be called out how these men from those cultures stood against the terror, but if you do it too loudly it will ultimately come off bad and only incite certain sections of society, only seem like a distraction from the core issues.

"THE PRO TERRORIST ABC PLAYED SPICKS AND SPECKS WHILE AUSSIE BATTLERS DIED!"

- the best discourse out of this whole thing.

A father and son who were only peripherally known to police. So hardly lunatic radicals screaming hate filled speech from street corners.

Well done. Refer earlier post.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Heard one journo asking how did they get the guns? Maybe do some research or just read legacy media.

Australia was once the gold standard for gun safety. Experts say it’s losing control

Gun numbers have rapidly increased, 3D-printed firearms are routinely seized by police and one state is on the verge of enshrining a ‘right to hunt’ in law

www.theguardian.com

Gun numbers are on the rise – there are now more than 4m firearms in the Australian community, almost double the 2.2m weapons recorded in 2001, after the national firearms agreement, according to a report commissioned by gun safety groups.

At least 2,000 new guns are lawfully entering the community every week.

And while the number of gun licence holders per capita has gone down as Australia’s population has soared, there is now a larger number of guns in the community per capita than there was in the immediate aftermath of the crackdown.

This wouldn't have happened if Ahemd al Ahemd has his own gun.

I drink long blacks and double espressos, so I’m automatically superior (at least in my mind) then all of your milk drinking cucks….


But really, dairy gives me the shits and all other milks taste like ass to me
