Sydney Siege over

Postby Paphitis » Mon Dec 15, 2014 6:46 pm

Gunman fired on a hostage killing them.

Police forced to act and stormed the building after throwing stun grenades.

Gunman was killed by police.

Overall Death Toll is 2 - terrorist + one member of the public.

3 members of the public injured, 2 critical and 1 Tactical Response Officer injured.

Good news, although it is tragic that one innocent person had to die and three suffer injury. I hope that life in Sydney returns to normal.

Pleased it's all over. Very, very sorry for the loss of life. Hope this is the last!

Well done, Sydney forces.

It will return to normal.

No way will they allow these events to change their way of life. No way!

To do so is kind of like a defeat in a way.

Abbott did well.

Gunman asked to speak to him and Abbott said NO!

More F-18s on their way to Middle east now.

usually with wars and terrorist events, the Australian public always vote Liberal. Also when the economy is not doing well.

Abbott might be guaranteed another term now.

I think he was kept quiet and out of sight for a while, hence a swift-ish resolution. :P

Has he found that airplane yet? :roll:
