Australia: Afghani plows SUV into shoppers, 26 injured.. but "not terrorism!"

An afghani muslim plowed his car going 120 kilometers per hour into a packed crowd of Christmas shoppers only moments ago injuring 26

Australia insist it is not terrorism.

The reaction formation and tightly entrenched defense mechanisms of these countries is something you just cannot make up

Also Australia's strict gun ban did not come to the rescue here did it?

From Australian reports

Which one? The first I read had this to say.

"We don't at this time have any evidence or any intelligence to indicate there's a connection with terrorism," he said.
However, he said they would continue to work with the Counter-terrorism Command to ensure there was no connection and ongoing threat.

Here's the latest, same source

What we know so far:

• A white 4WD drove through a group of pedestrians on the corner of Flinders St and Elizabeth St, before crashing into a tram stop
• Police say 19 people have been hospitalised
• The driver was a 32-year-old Australian citizen of Afghan descent
• He had a history of mental illness and drug abuse and came to police attention for a"minor assault" in 2010
• A 24-year-old also arrested at the scene was not in the car, but was filming the incident and was allegedly found to have knives in his bag, police say
• Police say they believe the crash was "a deliberate act", but that they do not know the motivation
• The scene remains cordoned off

The one that tried to deny it till the very last breath

The only difficult aspect to gauge properly is whether it still counts as an act of terrorism when the guy's absolutely bonkers.

It would make sense however to assume that it really was terrorism given the mode of operation and the origin of the moron in question.

People are SHIT scared of being pointed out as islamophobes or racists by the usual people.

Fuck it, whole countries are scared of being called that and being paraded as a racist state by the foreign press. The Hungarian prime minister had loads of shit poured on him only last year becauise of the imigrant crisis.

Why did the Australian cross the road?


To explain the difference between organised terrorism and mental health illness.

Absolutely agree. The human race is in such a candy-ass pie-in-the-sky idealistic state of social justice Warrior and Ultra paranoia that another Hitler will come to rise at the slightest offencive language of anyone that they have tried to suppress any kind of insulting or offensive language that could be deemed racist or any kind of religiously phobic.

These pansies and Candy asses think they are really doing something good for Humanity to try to cut off at the pass any remote chance that another at off Hitler will come to power. These are like grown infants coming up with this crap. Oh you can never ever let it happen again get out the violins everybody now let's use that prospect that clearly nobody would ever want to happen again but let's use that Prospect now anytime we want to shut down the opposition
