1:33pm: More detail on what's happening in Sydney public schools: A NSW Department of Education spokesman said all public schools within a 1km radius of the CBD were in "lock-out" mode, which prevents anyone from entering the school or children leaving. Any other schools outside this exclusion zone could make the decision to implement lock-outs if they felt it necessary, he said.

JUST IN: Arrests have been made on a Parramatta Street, with police surrounding three men. Updates to come. #9News

Wow they are working quite fast if these are related.

 

[Kiraken]

islamophobia is a propaganda term



yes this is just a fucked up situation that has no political implications its just like a random natural disaster really let's all just move on

yes but the fact is what u said is legitimately retarded and it's obvious ur simply using this as an excuse to vomit out islamophobic and right wing crap

instead of making a fool out of urself and ironically actually *help* terrorists by reacting exactly the way they want you to maybe either shut up or contribute something remotely decent to the convo

 

[Trebla]

Do your job.

Easier said than done when it's unfolding literally 5 minutes away

I didn't actually say anything """"islamophobic"""" though you fucking cry-baby.

the nsa is no joke

 

[Kiraken]

I didn't actually say anything """"islamophobic"""" though you fucking cry-baby.

your first comment was literally

"haha muslims"

implying that all muslims are supposed to be put in the same basket as these people. That is Islamophobia.

Then you go on about the Greens and Waleed Aly being silly for blaming this on marginalisation, which is stupid because marginalisation is often a factor in terrorist activity but apart from that they haven't actually said anything yet and it's obvious you are pre-emptively saying these things just to push ur political views out there.

Essentially you are taking advantage of a fucked up situation to project ur own views and the worst part is u literally have no idea what ur talking about

 

[Kiraken]

considering I'm a Muslim disgusted by this and I have friends at Martin Place who are Muslim who I'm pretty worried for atm I'm not happy with some asshole implicitly blaming all of us for a situation that we do not condone and are totally against.

Of course Islamic extremism is to be blamed, but grouping all Muslims and the religion as a whole with it is simply promoting the antagonistic reaction these terrorists are aiming for

 

[Queenroot]

the nsa is no joke

well clearly they were asleep if they hadn't done this sooner

 

[wannaspoon]

yeah if you're ok with getting hostages killed.

that's pretty much what happened in moscow state theatre. dont be a moron wannaspoon.

that siege was years ago, surely, there's been something in the pipeline that has been developed and refined from that time...

most of those people were not killed because of the gas, it's because paramedics responding did not know what poison was used (they were technically kept in the dark to FSB's tactic), if that is not known, paramedics do not know how to treat that poisoning...

You're always so close to news incidents

 

[BLIT2014]

Conservative 2GB radio presenter, Ray Hadley, has claimed a hostage has rung him. He took the call off air and 2GB is saying the NSW police commissioner has confirmed this but I have seen no independent verification of this. The police commissioner is giving a press conference soon.




Ray Hadley 'speaks to hostage'

2GB radio host Ray Hadley claims he has talked to one of the hostages in the Lindt cafe, who was speaking on the phone under instruction from a gunman.

Hadley said he did not broadcast the conversation because it wasn't in anyone's best interests. He said he had been told to ring the number back soon.

He said the gunman was "talking about other operatives being involved".

"I could hear the person in the background giving instructions to the young man I was talking to. The young man, remarkably, was quite calm, quite calm, and he was quite happy for us to have his phone number and said 'I want you to ring me back in 10 minutes for further instructions from the man holding us hostage'."

 

[Rafy]

"Scipione: We haven't had contact with the armed offender at this stage."

 

[BLIT2014]

He does not confirm or deny that radio presenter Ray Hadley has spoken to a hostage. He says police negotiations have been undertaken with the hostages and police have not had direct contact with the offender

 

[BLIT2014]

Commissioner Scipione: "We're looking at a range of calls (about devices around CBD). Everything has proven negative so far." #MartinPlace

that doesnt imply all muslims and if you think it does youre a fucking cry baby

Then you go on about the Greens and Waleed Aly being silly for blaming this on marginalisation, which is stupid because marginalisation is often a factor in terrorist activity

Yeah and funny how muslims are the only group to feel 'marginalized' in australia

funny how only the people who worship a mass-murdering warlord commit acts of violence against their theological foes

Essentially you are taking advantage of a fucked up situation to project ur own views and the worst part is u literally have no idea what ur talking about

I'm not projecting my views onto this, these kinds of things are what my views are all about. You're acting like this is just a natural event, when in reality it is politically/religiously motivated and has such implications accordingly.

When the leftists inevitably come out with their 'tolerance' bullcrap telling us this incident proves we need to make 'x' changes, are they taking advantage of the situation? are they projecting their views? Of course not, because you agree with their views.

Stop being such a fuckign cry baby.

Of course Islamic extremism is to be blamed, but grouping all Muslims and the religion as a whole with it is simply promoting the antagonistic reaction these terrorists are aiming for

funny how australia doesn't have to worry about Buddhist extremists despite comparable populations to muslims in australia

 

[Confound]

How can you guys be arguing

Stop being such a fuckign cry baby.

then why did you say "muslims" lol? If you didn't mean all muslims you could have said islamic extremists

And lol Muslims aren't the only ones who feel marginalised, no one said that. But it's a fact that marginalising a group of people can serve as a means of antagonising them

I am not acting like this is a "natural event". I'm simply stating that the kneejerk reactions of ERMAHGHERD DA MUZLAMBS DA MUZLAMBS WILL DESTROY US ALL is ridiculous and simply catering to the precise reaction those terrorists want, that taking political swipes at the greens and waleed aly for shit they haven't even said yet (lol) and stating that terrorism is entirely the fault of Islam the religion or Muslims as a whole and cannot possibly be attributed to other factors such as marginalisation is not only completely wrong and stupid as hell but completely counter productive to the situation
