Well… not far from where we refuse (couple towns away) a grandfather in Croydon was chopped up badly with machete wielding creeps while he was defending his family.
Family called the police but the response was none can be sent as no units are manned. Or something like that.
Now Mooroolbark police station is only open 3 days a week up to 10 pm.
I always thought it was bigger and better than that?
Then there’s that HUGE new building in Lilydale…. What happened there?
Oooohh kaaay I get it….don’t rely on police or help from them….looks like we will have to defend ourselves in any way possible …. got it
https://www.facebook.com/share/v/14VpfztqyCz/?mibextid=wwXIfr I remember when I lived in Melbourne. Collins St I think. Cops had surrounded a guy wielding a long sword 🗡️ and calling himself The Highlander.
A mentally ill guy and he was taken into custody I think. I wonder if he was Bobby from way back?

The irony now though. If I was living in Melbourne, I would be carrying a good sword under my trenchcoat for protection.
Funny. Melbourne has just been titled #1 most EXCITING CITY IN THE WORLD.
I reckon they paid $1m for its promo spot as these things are PAID FOR. An obvious offset to the $500m they paid for NOT hosting the Olympic Games
Ahh Melbourne. It lost its way the day they got rid of its tram conductors.
