MOD NOTE: You can feel however you want about religion or groups of people, for whatever reasons you choose. What you can’t do is come on to Boards and start spouting hate speeches, labelling all members of religions/ethnicities etc with negative stereotypes just because you can’t be arsed telling different people apart. This goes for implying all Muslims are foreign terrorist, all Catholics are paedophiles, all Atheist are antagonistic keyboard warriors, all mods aren’t extraordinarily good looking, or whatever your particular prejudice happens to be.

And before anyone decides to go on a rant about Boards having some liberal agenda/being fascist etc, please remember that:

You can be conservative and not racist
There’s a Feedback forum for your complaints.

In all honesty I wouldn't wish it on even my worse enemy even moreso when IS seem to be involved.

I hope ths people get out okay but in hearing who's involved am fearing the worse

whatdoicare · 15-12-2014 12:55AM

Oh this is just horrible, I hope noone gets hurt except whatever stupid plonker is terrorising that cafe.

I hope the hostages overpower their captors, then rip their spines out through their arseholes, especially if they have any affiliation to IS.

IS aren't involved, probably just some wannabes. Still though, hope nobody gets hurt.

What I'm thinking. The best course of action would be for the 20 hostages to stop the two gunmen

I am sick and tired of these muslim extremists using aggression and violence against liberal, tolerant societies that they have been allowed to live in.

Balls wanted to get an early night.

Hope everyone gets out okay.

Snake Plisken · 15-12-2014 01:07AM

Ah Muslims every time you hear about one of these incidents! I'd say Austrailia will come down hard on this scum!

Every news channel. Buses to the Sydney CBD are being diverted and the airspace over Sydney has been shut down.

Kristopherus · 15-12-2014 01:14AM

Beeb News & Sky News giving it full coverage.

Get the impression this may be bigger than the Lindt cafe which in itself is a very worrying situation.

Tugboats · 15-12-2014 01:15AM

Has Paul Gascoigne shown up yet?

That's why the Sydney Opera House was evacuated.

This is fcuking disgusting. These Islamic fundamentalists are a scourge on the human race but worryingly their numbers are growing. I feel absolutely helpless for the poor hostages given what we know about how IS operate. So terrifiying.:(

I know IS thrive out of this publicity and instilling terror into peoples homes through media. Should we really be looking at media blackouts in these type of situations? Nearly impossible with social media.

Sky News are taking a live feed from an Australian News station and they just reported it. Hopefully just bluster to spook the police.

Was worried when I first heard it because I've family that owns a cafe in Sydney.

It's horrible but I can't say I'm optimistic knowing it's apparently ISIS involved. Even if all the hostages survive, this will have lots of negative consequences but if all the hostages are executed it will cause chaos.

Fuk religion, man. Stupid fuking kunts.

AboutaWeekAgo · 15-12-2014 01:24AM

These scumbags better not blow up the Opera House.

Nib · 15-12-2014 01:25AM

Damn. Why is there no Lindt cafes in Ireland?

Poor old Aussies never harmed anyone.

The only negative consequences will be on the Muslim community.
