so he's supposed to have killed the guest house owners and then returned there and set it alight?
IQ 66 .... hmmm ... he'd hardly know WTF they were talking about in an interview.
Have a read of the link I will provide, after this quote:
Quote:Mr Bryant was an oversensitive individual who attributed aggression and malevolence to many of those around him. This in my opinion is not as a result of persecutory delusions or of morbid experiences, but a product of the very real rejection and distain which Mr Bryant has experienced through much of his life, largely as a result of his intellectual limitation and his peculiarities of personality. Mr Bryant is a selfabsorbed individual, with a markedly egocentric view of the world. He has high expectations of others and a sense of entitlement which are both constantly being disappointed. The disappointment of his hopes is usually explained by Mr Bryant in terms of the insensitivity and illwill of others.
In my opinion though Mr Bryant was clearly a distressed and disturbed young man he was not mentally ill. There is no evidence to support the notion that this man has a schizophrenic illness. The use of this diagnostic term in association with Mr Bryant by Dr Mather and Dr McCartney was based on the report of Mrs Bryant who had clearly misunderstood the opinion of Dr Cunningham-Dax. She had come to the conclusion that her son had been diagnosed with this condition. Neither Dr Sale, Dr Lucas nor myself found evidence in Mr Bryant of his ever having had schizophrenia. Similarly, in my opinion, he does not have evidence for a major depressive disorder. There was nother in his history to suggest that he has ever been manic.
Dr Sale, in his report of the 6 August 1996, indicates that in his opinion Mr Bryant manifested severe developmental problems during childhood and that he could be regarded as having shown a mixture of conduct disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity and a rare condition known as Asperger's Syndrome. I am in agreement with Dr Sale that the records indicate that Mr Bryant was grossly disturbed from early childhood. He can certainly be fitted within the criteria for conduct disorder, but all this amounts to in the diagnostic manual is a list of a range of aggressive destructive and deceitful behaviors during childhood and as such does not advance understanding to any degree. Asperger's Syndrome is a condition which could explain some of the abnormalities in Mr Bryant and in noting this possibility Dr Sale raises a potentially important question. The section from the text on Forensic Psychiatry convering Asperger's Syndrome appended to his report by Dr Sale though providing a good account of the forensic implications does not adequately describe the critical clinical features (as one of the authors of the chapter I can perhaps be allowed this criticism). Mr Bryant craves the attention of others. He desires relationships but fails to effectively communicate with others unlike the patients with Asperger's who are blandly indifferent to others. Mr Bryant also lacks, in my opinion, the central features of this condition which are repetitive activities, unusual skills with all absorbing obsessive interests and problems with motor coordination. He also showed marked delay in the acquisition of language skills and required remedial therapy for this language deficit which is contrary to the picture found in those with Asperger's Syndrome.

https://cray.apana.org.au/cas/articles/bryant.html#:~:text=In%20February%201984%...There is nothing to suggest the incapability of carrying out a mass shooting. If Bryant had the intelligence to socialise normally, he would not have the motivation to conduct such a shooting in revenge and the attempt of suicide by proxy.
There seems to be an implication that the witnesses to the massacre are all a bunch of liars. I recall the conspiracy that went about 20 years ago was that some SAS soldier donned a blond wig and went to shoot up the place and made Bryant a scapegoat. I happen to have met probably less than 10 SAS soldiers in my adulthood. Even though their demeanour is battle hardened soldiers and a tough guy outlook, they are not psychotic or even willing to shoot a bunch of Australian civilians. I doubt that the soldiers I have met are people that know anyone in the army psychotic enough to conduct an insane mass shooting against Australian civilians.
Have you ever seen someone get shot, Grappler? I have seen incidents happen, even in town here, that would have you suffer a stroke from the horror of it all. The shooters I have seen have always shown remorse for their actions. Martin Bryant did not show any for his.
