A shocking mass stabbing incident here yesterday. Reads like the perpetrator was deeply troubled and lost the plot.
There's not much to be grateful for except that we don't let people own rebadged military rifles. It's absolutely awful but could have been so much worse 😢

Now they're reporting that the policewoman who went into the shopping centre to confront and neutralise the knife-wielding killer by herself is an Inspector (a senior rank in NSW Police).
Talk about leading from the front. No dithering about; she just put herself between the murderer and the citizens without delay. Well done, her. 👏
Update: the police have made an official statement now and have identified the heroic policewoman who ran in to deal with the situation alone as Inspector Amy Scott.
Update: It would appear that the perpetrator of the mass stabbing in Sydney yesterday was a mentally ill man who seems to have targeted women. But this Pakistani refugee who was working as a security guard must've got in his way and paid with his life. R.I.P.😔 :
Update: And now we find out that another immigrant tried to do his bit to stop the murderer. This one a French homme.
It's almost like immigrants actually add value to, and courageously participate in, the community rather than "poisoning its blood" like some evil (ed. fascist) people try to claim.
