Gunman takes hostages in Sydney shop

**Mastermind** · 12-15-2014, 12:04 AM

Breaking news, BBC reporting that people had their hands up against a wall and that there was a visible arabic flag inside the shop.

Already had some very level headed intelligent tweets about it on my timeline.

Oh the joys of growing up in Leith.

It's going to end up with a beheading, absolute nap.

Nice of him to choose a chocolate shop

Also, rumours flying about on twitter that a potential bomb was found in the opera house. Not good.

You seen the prices in Sydney, I'm sure he has his reasons.

Looking forward to going on twitter and seeing folk from Dalry and Davidsons Mains live tweeting events like a bunch of embedded reporters.

Sky News are absolutely DESPERATE for this to all kick off Laugh

A Nightcrawlers situation where they start creating the news is imminent.

24 hour news is the worst.

Apparently the Gunman has the wrong flag

They're fucking vultures on that channel. Even though there's a huge story going on they have to try and make it even bigger by speculating absolute nonsense.

I take it this is still going on?

Can't believe anyone ever watches sky news, it's fucking awful. Genuinely couldn't give a fuck about a hostage situation in a coffee shop half way round the world anyway Laugh

Chrambo · 12-15-2014, 09:53 AM

Wonder if they're allowed to talk about this over there since there's a flag involved.

Sky showing a full on gun fight.

Don't know why they are saying it's about islam, the boy just wants to pay for his wife's sex change.

~~Dexter~~ · 12-15-2014, 03:27 PM

"One man who looked to be muslim threw himself to the ground".

What the fuck BBC.

Big fan of live shootouts tbh Laugh

LOL at religious beliefs having visual characteristics like skin colour Laugh

If I'm being honest, that doesn't look to me to have been gunfire - more like shock grenades ....
