Trouble is they get drawn and quartered if they open fire without due cause, and the way the legal eagles have twisted the rights of the criminal that basically comes after the event! Of course, how is shot first ask questions later balanced!
My son works in the CBD off Williams St, my elderly mother in law was at home and saw this story unfold in real time on the TV. She nearly collapsed, the media have a lot to answer for, it's the cameras and the internet that promotes this sort of act.
To think this nutter was in his car harassing reporters who were at the scene of his earlier alleged stabbing murder of his brother. Then they filmed him doing doughnuts in the very middle of Melbourne surrounded by police officers and pedestrians. Yet the police cannot act with force despite the fact his actions were already endangering the public.
But if you want to know were all this started, we need to go back to privatisation and the closure of mental health facilities during the Kennett government era. People like this use to be in the asylums for their own and everyone else's protection. I agree they have rights, but the rest of the population does as well! Closing the asylums and putting dangerous mentally ill individuals into community care has let the genie out of the box.
Police worry about radicals, but the rest of us should fear the copy cat nutters!
As for the politicians fixing the problem, with ar5ewipes like this in charge, what hope do we have?
Quote:As news began to break of the attack that has already claimed three lives, Senator Leyonhjelm took to twitter in response to a Herald Sun update to say: “Probably one of those semi-automatic assault cars.”Think about those 364 "Likes", 364 more potential nutters with guns or cars!

The comment drew almost universal condemnation, with many social media users criticising the politician for the tasteless remark.
"Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck ....... Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck"
