Shopping mall stabbing in Sidney, Australia, Saturday, 13 Apr 2024.
Six unsuspecting, innocent shoppers were murdered at a busy shopping mall in Sidney, Australia, last Saturday afternoon.
A number of other innocents were non-fatally injured by this perpetrator (including an infant) during the same episode.
This murderous attack lasted only four minutes. It surely would have gone on longer were it not for decisive, armed police intervention.
The perpetrator was a 40-year-old man (now dead) with “mental health issues.” He was familiar to the local police!
The perpetrator was ultimately confronted by, and immediately shot to death by, a uniformed, armed, decisive police officer, who courageously took the fight to him!
Of course, in Australia, “ordinary citizens” have been forcibly disarmed by vile leftist political hypocrites (similar to America’s)!
Of note:
The first victim of this felon’s murderous rampage was a young male “security guard” (uniformed but unarmed) on his first day on the job!
The rest of the victims this VCA (violent criminal actor) deliberately targeted and selected were all women.
Lessons:
- 1) Unarmed “security guards” are a joke! Never expect them to protect anyone, including themselves.
- 2) In the minds of many VCAs (apparent in this case), women make easier victims than men.
- 3) When a VCA decides that he can take you, you’ve only seconds (maybe less) to convince him otherwise!
- 4) What we call “mindset,” is a complicated matter. Anyone of normal intelligence can be trained to operate a gun, even pass some arbitrary “qualification course.”
Yet, simultaneously developing a survival-oriented, personal “mindset” is more complicated and delves into your very nature and spirit.
The police officer, in this case, “passed the test” to her credit.
For the rest of us, the time to start refining our personal “mindset” is now while we still can!
Two kinds of pain: The pain of discipline and the pain of regret. We can avoid one, but never both!

Don’t have to have a gun to be “armed”. It would be nice, but in the face of Gooberment interference of God’s Natural Rights, there are alternatives. Such as a nice, heavy walking stick/cane. Good for out & about, wouldn’t draw a second look. For at home; A baseball or cricket bat. There are umbrellas with heavy shafts (expensive). A Kendo bamboo or wood practice sword. Again, these aren’t as nice as having/using a gun at a distance, but you make do with what you have/are allowed by Gooberment diktat. Unarmed is a state of mind. Just like the mind… Read more »
you know who else loves to use knives for their mayhem don’t you? and with the dumbas craps wanting your guns but not their knives, it leaves you at a marked disadvantage doesn’t it?
Unarmed and helpless…just like the Rothschild’s and Soros and all their friends and lackeys want everyone. Of course they have ARMIES to protect themselves.
Tyranny allowed is Tyranny deserved.
As a Security Guard myself saying that what I do is a joke is massively judge mental and thoroughly unprofessional. Where do you get off? While there maybe poorly trained guards out there, there is certainly plenty of us who take our training seriously and do defend others and ourselves even without the aid of a firearm which by the way is not our choice but the laws we have to operate in. But I guess sitting in front of your computer writing makes you superior!
