Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

May God rest his soul, and the other dead hostage’s as well. She died defending a friend from the gunman.

The word “hero” is often abused.

This man was a true hero.

God bless this man, but if I was gonna grab for his gun i would also be implanting something sharp into his temple. In for a penny, in for a pound. If you’re gonna do it, go all in.

Put him up there with Todd Beamer in the Pantheon of Jihadist Fighters.

Fortunately, in Australia, we have an honours system that allows civilians to be decorated for bravery in the same way members of the military are.

It needs to all be dispassionately investigated - but based on these reports, it looks to me like Tori Johnson may be eligible for the Cross of Valour - equivalent in status and honour to the Victoria Cross. Even if his courage was of a slighly lower grade, the Star of Courage and the Bravery Medal are available. And he may not be the only one.

This was heroism — but also tragedy.

On 9/11....at Marin Place...in London...and elsewhere,you'll always find examples of exceptional courage and selflessness.Of course the police who responded to this incident must also be cited for skill and courage.

But perhaps your legal system and immigration system should be examined for ways to prevent such incidents in the future...just as ours should have been examined in light of 9/11.Hopefully your Labor Party won't be as stupid as is our Democrat Party in dealing with the findings of such an investigation.

I say arrest all muzlims in Austrailia and deport them to some desert somewhere...You can bet the so called moderate muzlims are passing out candy all over the city/country...

The Australian gov’t is 100% responsible for this...First off, they let a terrorist connected with a murder out on bail...And secondly, they refuse to let Australian citizens defend themselves...A disgrace...

This brave man was sacrificed on the alter of the liberal Aussie scum that allowed these islamic monsters into their beautiful country. He might as well have been marched up a stepped pyramid in the jungle and had his chest cavity opened with an obsidian knife by the left.

No honest citizen should ever be denied the right of effective self defense. It is act of tyranny to even contemplate it!

He lunged at the gunman’s weapon, enabling others to flee.

Or they could have helped him, and maybe he wouldn't have died.

Meanwhile back in America, the DemonRats are outraged that the CIA splashed water terrorists faces and their DemonRat leader releases more terrorists to live another day to plot more killings of Americans.
