Is everyone OK?

Just horrific. RIP to the victims.

Somebody named Yashar Ali (the clue to his interest in the incident is in his name) has reported on Twitter that multiple people have been stabbed and/or shot.

Horrible tragedy. Just got off a flight from Adelaide to Brisbane and had to madly call all my eastern suburbs based family to make sure they were all safe. It felt surreal to be honest. Heart goes out to all the victims and the police officer that dropped the lunatic. Who stabs a 9 month old baby. It’s shocking.

[HunchoRooster]

Disgusting act. Prayers to all involved.

The 40 year old murderer was "known to police" but probably not motivated by any ideology. My bet is that he was off his face on ice.

My good mates X-wife was stabbed. In hospital waiting for news.

Fcuk hope she’s ok

My Daughter had planned to go there after work but she was tired and came home instead

Don’t tell Carlos, it will ruin his pre-conceived bigotry.

there are going to be nuts who did this sort of stuff unfortunately. it's a part of life but that doesn't make it any less tragic. 6 people dead - hoping all the other injured pull through. would have been a tragedy anywhere in the world but you feel it more when it's your own patch

You don't think certain cultural/religious groups would have a vested interest in what/who caused the attack? The name suggests he belongs to either the persecuted group or the 'usual suspects' group.

No condemnation for the perpetrator though?

I can see where your interests lay.

Umm no, I had already decided it was someone off their face on ICE or meth. Which group they belonged to was still open for speculation.

My bigotry in this area is there for a reason. And I assume it's there for most free-thinking people as well. You don't know who I am, or what I've experienced in real life to make a 'pre-conceived' statement about my nature. I'm not scared to admit to certain biases when it comes to incidents like this.

Who here thinks that if the perp was known to police as a member of a ‘far-right’ North Shore white supremacist group, that their name would have been made public long before it actually was?

Baaaa, baaaa....you sleepwalking sheep.

It was a mental health issue, and the bloke was from Queensland. Not a racial, cultural, religious or any other minority or collective issue.

You jumped to conclusions and clearly implied, IMO, that the attack was bound to be racial or terror related, and that the issue related to the Middle East.

Don’t make excuses now for going off early, clown.
