Teen found not guilty of murdering mom during home invasion. He was hitting husband, while partner stabbed mom to death. Judge ruled he didnt know his partner in crime had a knife. Stabber previously sentenced to 14 years for the murder of the mom.
Life is cheap in Australia. Family immigrated from Britain to Australia.

Very sad. Sounds like the Stabber deserved the death penalty. The other one probably needed 40 to life in prison to get things figured out.

Re: Australia today, American woman sentenced to one year in jail gold gun in luggage

That or judge didn’t like the way she looked.

Gold plated pistol, supposedly worth $3000.

Visited Australia to attend clown school.

Brought gun for personal protection.

Looked up on internet whether she could bring her gun. Internet of course said no.

Real question, will Trump work on her release?

Should cancel her passport and not ever let her return to this country. One less freak show running the streets.

New even more restrictive gun law. Paintball and air rifle licenses. Machete ban. Crocodile Dundee’s knife now banned.

I guess the Chinese will never have to worry about the “rifle behind every blade of grass” should they ever decide to invade.
Australia was very difficult to independently hold in the game Risk.

Machetes would join the already lengthy list of “prohibited weapons” in the state that includes flick knives, non-metal/ceramic knives (“excluding plastic cutlery”), swords, laser pointers, slingshots and catapults, tasers/stun guns, crossbows, laser-tag imitation firearms, gel blaster guns, extendable batons, “acoustic anti-personnel devices,” and mace sprays and similar “noxious discharge articles” (club-type maces are also prohibited, “other than a ceremonial mace made for and used solely as a symbol of authority on ceremonial occasions”).
WoW! Sounds like tyranny on a grand scale. They would clearly rather prefer people die from animal attacks than allow women to protect themselves with OC spray.

May have targeted a Jewish Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach in Sydney.

Not sure why at this point Imams have publicly condemned the attack.

Video of bystander heroically disarming a shooter of his shotgun.

RIP

Unarmed hero disarms one of the terrorist. My understanding is he was wounded though. If only Australians had the right to keep and bear arms, he could have safely engaged and stopped the threat from his position.

One witness noted that four police officers froze and did nothing for several minutes:

Longer video here where they were finally stopped (language warning):

And just to show the craziness of the world today (and how bad stereotypes are), the hero who disarmed the one shooter was Muslim and was shot twice by the second shooter. The shooters were a father and son team of white average Australians with weapons permits.
