That takes some balls 'metaphorical' to close with long equipped shooters when your weapon has an effective range of 20m and less, and that's if you're a bloody good shot. That takes some real professionalism and courage.
It seems the latest reporting suggests that the murderers were shot by a detective using a pistol from around 40m away. I don't know much about guns at all but that seems pretty impressive under the circumstances.
That is impressive, genuinely.
your disguised antisemitism
At some point in the past this might have been an effective ripost. We know better now.
If someone tells you that they have someone affected, in hospital, fighting for their life, and you can only think to make a smart arse reply, then you are a horrible human being.
it’s inevitable that the confusion may arise
We wouldn’t post “it’s hardly surprising is it” type posts when Muslims are targeted in the UK, or New Zealand, would we? We wouldn’t be pointing at the actions of Iran’s Supreme leader, we’d be pointing at the perpetrators. Our concerns would be with the victims. The same basic minimum of understanding should be shown when Jews are targeted in the UK, or Australia.
[Mod] All, please keep to the topic and stop with the offensive posts. Thread will be closed otherwise. Thank you for your co-operation.
In the wake of the extremist shootings and gatherings of neo-Nazis calling for the elimination of the "Jewish lobby", Australia's Minister of Home Affairs has been wielding the "visa cancelled" stamp.
Having deported a South African neo-Nazi, he has now ordered the cancellation of a British neo-Nazi's visa. The deportee's name and when he is likely to arrive back in the UK has not yet been disclosed.
A British national who has been charged with displaying Nazi symbols has had his Australian visa cancelled and faces deportation to the United Kingdom as the Albanese government starts drafting tougher laws on hate speech after the Bondi terror attack.
The man, 43, was charged with four breaches of the criminal code this month after federal police seized swastika-bearing swords from his Queensland home and determined he had used social media to promote pro-Nazi ideology and violence against the Jewish community.
