Some news reports are saying the terrorists have displayed an ISIS flag.

But, I thought Australia did away with handguns. This must be a false report.

It also cannot be true that it is Muslims as Islam is a religion of peace, even the Pope told us this. My guess is that it is a group of Right Wing Nationalist armed with Bowie Knives.

Australia will now learn son hard lessons.

Their gun ban could very well reverse itself.
