I’m Tasmanian. We don’t mention this monsters name, but thank you for covering that awful awful day. (You missed the nurse he stabbed with a pair of scissors in prison hospital and the ferry he missed getting on at PA where passengers would have had no escape.) The hole he left on the island is real and still very raw. The Broad Arrow is gone, replaced by a memorial garden. The bus parking space is now bush and a site focused on boat building, and there is a whole new heavily controlled entrance building. You don’t drive into the site anymore either. He is dead to us. Not one of us anymore. He is a monster.

@@J2thaAMES1 you have an excellent way of phrasing things and your absolutely correct. I'm a big believer in individual rights, and I don't like involving the government unless it's absolutely necessary. However, there are limits. I don't want to get in to politics too much, but gun control isn't the answer. (In my opinion) Look at how long it took for the police to respond. This individual was mentally unstable and *wanted to murder as many people as possible.* People like that are almost always going to find a way. They'll use guns, knives, bombs etc. If this mans psychiatrists had taken action- and had been *legally required* to take action- those people would still be alive. They were sitting ducks. They had no way to defend themselves, or their loved ones when they need to most. All strict gun control really does in the long run, is ensure that the ONLY people who will be armed in these instances, are the murderer and the police. Which might turn out okay. Provide the police are there to respond.

I have a relative that has some very concerning mental issues similar to the issues related in this case. When the subject was brought up to the parents they made excuses like it is just a phase or he will grow out of it etc... I think the parents don't want to admit that their child needs help and that if there is something wrong it will make them look like bad parents, but neglecting the help they need is what makes them a failure not the kids mental issues. Eventually my relative got the help he needed and is doing much better now but I can see how things could have progressed if left unchecked and I hope these stories fade away eventually as the shift to better mental health and treatment progresses.

Just one correction. If he was indeed using "full metal jacket" rounds, these are actually designed to NOT mushroom or fragment. These types of rounds actually do less damage if they do not strike bone or a major organ as they can pass straight through the body. The type of rounds that do "mushroom" and fragment are "hollow points". In fact, the Hauge Convention of 1899 prohibits the use of hollow point bullets, which is why if he had military ammunition, they would have been "full metal jacket" rounds.

Your description of “jacketed rounds” is incorrect. Especially later when you then call them “Armor Piercing”. AR-15 rifles are 5.56mm and the ammunition used was “full metal jacket”. This is the same round used in M16/M4 full automatic rifles in the military and per the Geneva Convention, this round is the one the military must use in wars.. Bullets use this design to minimize the wound inflicted and to generally not be fatal. It travels in a straight line through a body and unless hitting an organ in generally survivable. It does not fragment to cause more injury or spread out to hit other people. It is also not armor piercing.

People trying to get into the Cafe stunned me. The human mind will really try to protect itself. They really couldn't fathom the violence taking place. I'm from a country with a really high rate of gun violence so if we hear popping we assume it's gun fire until proven otherwise.

That's exactly what I was thinking, there's been enough gun violence in the US (where I live), to make me steer clear of pops. For people to want to see what's going on, in several instances in this event, really shows how rare a tragedy this must've been for Australia.

Well if your from a country where gun violence is low, you think it's anything else. Fireworks, car backfiring, etc. it is quite amazing though, there are a lot of accounts from the Vietnam war where American soldiers were temporarily blinded so that they couldn't remember what they saw because it was that horrific.

I hadn’t heard of this one. Seems like the medical profession and police where he grew up really blew it. They can’t have expected his parents to live forever. When he was shooting an air soft guns at strangers, he should have been in mental health care. You’d think a bunch of slaughtered sheep in the same place his father was found would have been a major clue. Sounds like he had reactive attachment disorder that was never treated or he was just born a psychopath. What an incredibly handsome young man he was. A perfect predator.

As an Australian this incident is a huge blight in our history. It changed how Australians viewed guns. This has to be the most comprehensive in depth look at this tragedy I’ve seen. The amount of information about his childhood was impressive. The little PSA toward conspiracy theorists was a surprising but perfect little break from your consummate professional demeanour.

I wish we in the US would learn from our own constant shootings. My daughter has had active shooter drills in school since she was 4. But if the massacre twenty 1st graders (6-7 year olds) doesn't wake us up... or a guy sitting in a hotel room on the 32nd floor shooting at concert goers outside, killing 68 and injuring 700 in a matter of 10 minutes...or the churches/ malls/schools/movie theaters etc don't wake us up, I have no hope that anything will.

We should ask ourselves this....will businesses that sell guns really affect the economy if we vote to close them up? Hmmm most would say no and some will say yes, but I think everyone would choose to close shop on those businesses. We can use it as a trial and error business move to see if we actually be able to not see as many massacres as we have seen within the last 3 decades. Just a thought so please gun lovers relax and don't shoot 🤣
