Although this is likely an isolated event, there’s always the possibility that this is a “diversion” meant to have authorities concentrate their resources here while a “main event” goes off elsewhere.

FWIW:

From national security correspondent David Wroe: “The flag being shown in the window is not an Islamic State flag, nor one for the other best-known jihadist group Jabhat al-Nusra. Rather, it appears to be a Shahada flag, which represents a general expression of faith in Islam, though has been co-opted by various jihadist groups.

Bringing a gun to a slaughterhouse is easy. Socialy and industrialy engineering one takes years of castration and breaking of men into cattles.

No problem if Australia is under attack by Islamofascists.

The citizens can just grab their AKs and ARs and 45’s and shotguns and then....

oh wait.

Never mind.
