What a ^&*^*% comment to make roar.

Burn his body and dump him in a tip for toxic waste, and never say his name.

Gutless prick, no excuses.

I guess we should thank small mercies that a mentally Ill bloke commits these attacks with a kitchen knife rather than an AR15.

5 of the 6 dead are women, apparently, not sure if anything can be read into that.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Of course it can. He wasn’t a small man in stature but clearly a small man inside, he took on the defenceless, at least 2 were tourists.

And yes, thankgod it wasn’t a gun.

No doubt many people had a script ready to go if he had been Muslim or a refugee.

Never been arrested before. Likely he was known as he'd been a rough sleeper for several years.

It's great to see the media name a person who wasn't the assailant and then claim human error. It's very sad and I am now starting a week of not watching or listening to mainstream media. They are in their glee, they love this crap.

Two things. Firstly I have heard so many times about people wanting to ban guns in the USA because someone with a gun can kill more people than people an arsehole with a knife. Obviously this is correct although a total of 6 or possibly more victims is still a significant amount of people. I feel so sad for the victims and families.
Secondly older Collingwood fans will always remember Kerry Good who kicked a goal well after the siren to win a night series grand final for North in 1977. Tragically one of the victims was his young daughter
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️
