An awful tegedy Alan. And a heroic action by that brave man, he must have saved so many lives. I can never imagine what makes people so uncaring as to do these things. And Father and son too.

That's just it, Belle.
Some people see a different faith as 'the enemy'.
They are individuals, when it comes down to it.

We have a lovely Muslim family near here and kinder, more caring and generous people, it would be hard to find.

Pure evil, Allan....why can't people just live and let live :-(

The guy who wrestled the gun from one of the gunmen is a true hero and looks like he was shot himself in all the chaos :-0. Just goes to prove you should not paint everyone with the same brush :-0

A truly awful thing to have happened fuelled by hatred.

I was going to post about the hot weather, but with what has happened in Sydney it would seem very churlish to do so. Death toll 16 (at the moment)
