It is no different for me other than my sister living in Sydney. My responses to all of them are the same line.
What is interesting is the police were pretty unprepared apparently, so just imagine if they had assault rifles instead of bolt action and shotguns.
It is definitely important for everyone. It is going to keep getting worse for the foreseeable future.
I've seen some information about the police response, but I haven't been able to determine if it is factual or not. I kind of just take it a base level if I don't know for sure. There's just so much misinformation out there.
