Paul Doyle is a shitty guy who did a horrific thing. But he's also the extreme end of a spectrum of behaviour that normalises violence as a response to inconvenience when behind the wheel.

I fully support this statement released by the Palestine Action Group, in response to the murder of innocent Jewish people celebrating Hanukkah at Bondi Beach on Sunday. I am also deeply disturbed by the comments made by the Antisemitism Envoy Jillian Segal. #auspol #BondiBeachShooting

I had a peek at Twater(sic).
The amount of misinformation about the Bondi shooting is truly shocking

People complaining when he heroically disarmed the terrorist, why did he not shoot him ... Because most of us are not psychopaths.

Plus lies about the name, ethnicity & religion of said hero.

This is a heads-up about fake AI accounts which have proliferated across social media.

The screenshot is from a genuine thread asking for advice on a mountain route; there are plenty of useful, real human replies.
The attempted reply (we stopped it) looks very real - but it is from an AI bot.

Falls from height is one of the leading causes of death in my industry and so we have lots of processes to stop people getting killed.

And this folks, is why it costs money to have contractors working on our streets with the right equipment and the right training.

It's why highway authorities should take a dim view of people putting crap up themselves and I don't care what cause it is because it takes seconds to kill yourself.
