Wow, has it already been ten years? I can still remember the footage of that burning white building and the blood-spattered glass.
Apparently, Bryant is now an obese zombie in prison. What a fucking waste of humanity, the guy should have been taken down by the cops.
In memorium of the dozens of victims of that tragic day. Our thoughts go out to the families who suffered so much.
Here's a story of one of the survivors, ten years on.

it doesnt seem like 10 years since 1996!
i had to look up port arthur massacre but i certainly remember the news reports from that day.
its interesting to see how many conspiracy theories have sprung up around it.
I remember the day before it happened a schoolfriend telling me what a nice place Port Arthur was.
Spooky.

I can't remember it (I was 7), but my parents reckon they probably stopped me from hearing about it...

That smilie is not really appropriate given what we're talking about. Did anyone see the article on Bryant in the Australian magazine?

It's very appropriate. Haven't you heard, ignorance is bliss.
