I wonder where CNN got their info from, none of Australia's media seems to know any details yet.

There was some mention of CPR being used on abc just now.



I saw it on the video. wasn't sure at first but I saw someone performing chest compressions just outside the front door. I think they realized what it was the same time I did because they cut to a random shot of nothing after.


Yeah this I saw - was wondering how they specifically got 2 dead and 3 critical.

Are they watching different reports than me, cause they're saying now that 7 is saying that the gunman may be among the dead, but I haven't heard jack of that watching

unsurprisingly, this was another self-styled jihadist in the west who was known to authorities

He's not been taken injured from the scene yet, so i think people are just assuming.

So this guy has been accused of killing and incinerating his wife, poisoning the families of dead Australian servicemen, and a little sexual assault sprinkled on top. He also ran a spiritual healing racket for a living.

Lovely chap this.

Given that virtually every psycho who has done terror acts has actually shown an obvious inclination prior to committing the act, is there any way the respective governments could have actually stopped this from happening? Like removing citizenship and barring entry?

it's the tradeoff for not having a police-state. like i said before, pretty much all of these self-styled jihadists in the west have been known to the authorities, it's not a failure of intelligence, more a failure to act.

It's also that every credible threat here recently has featured people who were born here. 3 months ago they arrested a bunch of Australian born jihadists because they were going to kidnap and behead a person in public, in the same place that this occured

Not sure where you heard this.

http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/spiritual-healer-man-haron-monis-charged-with-an-extra-40-sexual-offences-20141013-115epb.html

That's a news article posted in October regarding this guy. Nothing about poisoning people mentioned. He was on bail for accusations of being an accessory to murder of his wife. AFAIK he didn't actually kill her himself...

Well watching the BBC video of all that gunfire, I'm pretty sure someone is dead.

I cannot vouch for the validity of this, nor will I pretend to know whether this is accurate. NY times is usually reliable though.

Edit: misread the poison part; it was poison-pen letters, not actual poison. My bad, retracting that part.
