I'm at work in the MLC building, we've been told not to leave the floor, let alone the building. Gotta put your hand up and ask if you wanna go to the toilet too.

GEEZ Tom, take care mate. Is the US consulate still in that building?

yeah, it is.

 

[Special K]

Stay safe Tom. I spend most of my time doing meetings in the city at cafes... This has really shaken me up. I can't imagine what the poor people who are being held are going through

 

[bad boy bubby]

Reports are now saying 13 hostages. Very disturbing footage of a hostage making slit throat gestures.

 

[Quigs]

Stay safe Tom.

 

[Nuffs]

f**k... hits way too close to home!

 

[panfashark]

Multiculturalism.

("It will be good for the county","Australia needs it.")

What has this country become. :crazy::crazy::crazy::crazy:

Any form of Religion is bad news.

Thoughts go out to those involved.

 

[Maccas4177]

I'm 100 meters away. Not allowed to leave my floor. I can't see this ending well....

My daughter is close by too. Reportedly safe but not allowed to leave the building.

 

[Quigs]

Stay calm folks. Do as you are instructed.

If the Police could just control the media speculation then it would be better. Apparently my old mate Hadley is going apeshit. If somebody wants to shot him then I will go character witness.

 

[bad boy bubby]

Lindt boss has confirmed there are 50 people in there

 

[ghoti]

just hoping people calm down and stop over-reacting, nothing happened yet and a lot of precautions being taken by police... the only known information is that there is a single nutjob holding a bunch of people in a cafe.

no cause for concern unless you are or know someone in the cafe at the moment

 

[carcharias]

A real terrorist would've just blown the shit out of the joint.

 

[glenmoresharkie]

Holy shit.

Anyone in the city, please stay safe.

 

[ghoti]
