I read about this yesterday. Excerpts from article: "2 Shot dead at AusKick" taken from The Sunday Times, 22/6/03.

Horrible
There was a gang liquidation in the area here a while back - one criminal shot another one... who was picking up his little daughter from kindergarten. Couldn't he have waited till the man was alone? |

Unfortunatly times like this are chosen because the murderers know their victim will be at a certain place,at a certain time and that their defences will be down. This makes it easier to plan for.
It is some kind of grim efficancy thing. I read a part of a book in a shop recently by some australian psycho criminal called Chopper who said he kneecapped some guy's mother so they could get him to go to hospital where they waited for him. Weirdly this guy is really popular because he only kills criminals. How that makes it so much better I'm not entirely sure but from what he writes he seems to think he is a moral kind of guy. What I find weirder is that shops will stock his crap. He is apparently australias biggest writer, that includes him selling both David Malouf and that Carey guy.

As for the grim efficiency thing. I think you're spot on. What kind of statement does that make about the people who do this kind of thing?

But didn't the Aussie government impose gun control? So how could this happen?

This is a tragic event, those kids will probably be scarred for life. Buts whats also disturbing about this event is that the police didnt seem too worried about an execution in broad daylight in front of 100s of people. If crimals arent afraid do this sought of thing in that situation, where has the law enforcement gone I ask? Violence by crime gangs has been on the rise in recent years - open warfare between gangs on the streets is becoming common. Theres big gang problems in perth and sydney - not just melbourne, not even mentioning the bikey gangs. [ 06-24-2003, 05:00 AM: Message edited by: dragon_lord ]
