    Eight people died & 5 were injured. The police sat outside waiting for the SWAT Unit. They should have been in the building chasing the gunman. They are trained for these situations & failed to act. The damage could have been controlled. The other problem was that information from within the building was not being passed on to police at the scene. There were people within the building who were contacting the Emergency number but their info was not getting to the police at scene. A total breakdown in communication. I realise communication was not what it is today but I there was an enquiry that found that not all callers were believed by the Emergency Operators. Sad, because if the police could have isolated the offender they could have entered the building & saved people's lives. The other problem was waiting for SWAT who were over 15 minutes away. Vitkovic killed 8 people in 17 minutes. It was over before the SWAT team ever arrived.

    I worked at the old Police HQ building in William St when this occurred and remember hearing of it very quickly as word travelled around our 19 floors, which had the Chief Commissioner and the deputy commissioners all on the 19th floor. We had security in that building from when I started there in 1980, there was a reception desk on the ground floor surrounded by glass and we had City West police station on the ground floor. There was also a duress button just under the desk which connected to the police station which was roughly only 20 feet away but separated by walls. You had to sign in and wear a visitor’s pass the entire time you were in the building if you didn’t work there and have your Freddie with you. Whoever the person was you were meeting would be contacted and had to come down and escort you up. No one was permitted to enter the building and wander at random. I’m sure that it’s much tougher now but we had a very formidable lady named Dot who worked at the desk, and she could scare the crap out of anyone. This incident was a terrible shock, as was the Hoddle St massacre. Shook us all and was so frightening. many of us will never forget.

      Take a look around! Most people, including those who claim they are not, are bullies. Look at the comments on social media and you will see that bullying is rampant by adults who think it is ok to make fun of a person's body shape, feelings, emotions, political views etc. and think it's fun to make that person miserable with their comments. Keyboard bullies are the worst of all kind because they know they can remain anonymous for the most part and will never 'bump into' their victim. You can't stop bullying when the ones telling the younger generation to stop being bullies are showing them how to be bullies with their actions.

    Good for the two gents who tackled him, doubtless they saved many more people that day, they are indeed heroes. Some of the other survivors may also have had 'survivor's guilt' after the incident, which would not have been recognised back then.
    Completely baffled by the cops who sent the two gents in the lift back up. That was beyond explanation and common sense. As much as the cops would have been inexperienced for such a situation, it was a crazy decision. And they ended up on the 11th floor no less.
    With the exception of one male victim, the perp did seem to have a hatred of women, executing them by close range bullet to the head in three cases. Misogyny is actually a trend in many mass shootings. The thing of it is, when 'taking out' victims who pose a real threat, one would think the killer would become 'extra sure' in taking out male threats to 'their mission'. And in this case, that was clear, by only wounding one of his ultimate assailants. Years ago, when I analyzed about 20 years of US school shootings, the female victim count was about 65% (or perhaps more, I cannot recall the exact figure, but disproportionately higher, and higher than random chance). My take on that is 'failed men' take out most of their aggression upon that to which they feel 'entitled'. Which probably spills over into the domestic violence homicides, whereby the majority of women killed are killed by current or former partners, about 60-65%, (entitlement), but the reverse is true for men, only about 5% are killed by female partners. And very very few mass homicides committed by women (you really have to dig deep to find them). Sorry for the tangent, but it did raise questions because of the detail in which the victims were killed. Thank you to the channel for a well put together documentary on this.

    I think we need to remember the time and place; mass shootings are very rare in Australia so that can explain a lot of the workers’ reactions and perhaps a bit of why the police bungled handling it quickly. If you’ve never encountered a gunman before, you don’t necessarily have training to react in the most appropriate and timely way. Also, this was in the 80s! While there had been mass shootings (mostly in America ofc), it was rare meaning again, the workers nor police likely even knew what the sound was / knew what was happening nor how to react. What the brave souls did here was pure instinct. This case set the stage for many changes in Australia and I only wish the US learned anything from how it was handled afterwards.

    It seems to me that at the time Australia was poorly equipped to deal with a mass shooting event. It also seems that police were playing too much by the book when they relied on their training. I take it that police procedure back then was to wait for the Swat team before they could storm the building?

      Just this year (AU), multiple stabbing incidents, so I really do not get your point. It has not stopped the random multiple killings.
      Are you in a city? We have plenty of guns (long arms) in the country. Far less multiple shootings out here. The common factor in most of these gun or stabbing crimes, was happening in a big city. So perhaps we ban big cities? Seems to make people go crazy. Just pointing out that your logic train got derailed. And in fact, I will bet the farm that more people are murdered by arson as much as knives, and both of those far more than guns, even before the tighter regulations.
      The only general exceptions to the multiple homicide committed by gun in the country, are domestic homicides, but not random victim shootings. Port Arthur would be the exception to that. Heck, I even came across a domestic massacre committed by axe in the early 20th century.
      I am only arguing that there is a middle ground between absolute zero private firearm access, and the free-for-all no-regulation of the US. Knee jerk reactions to heinous crimes do not resolve anything.

One woman begged for her life AFTER being shot, and then was shot in the head. Whether she had done that or not, probably would have had no bearing on the outcome, it is likely he still would have executed her anyway.
      Frankly, you watch too many movies, where 'women scream'. Not necessarily the case at all. And everyone will react differently. Most people in the Queen Street massacre went straight into hiding, not screaming. Edna, you seem to be a stupid and judgemental person. Own it.
