“In the past two decades, just three people have died as victims of terrorist attacks (broadly defined) in Australia. They were the two victims of the Martin Place siege and the NSW police accountant Curtis Cheng.”
In the same time period, 60,000 people suicided, 24, 700 died in road accidents and 1600 were killed by their partner.
But by all means, let’s pretend terrorism is Australia’s Big Scary Thing.
More Australians have died at the hands of police, lawfully or unlawfully, in 10 years, than from terrorist attacks in Australia in the past 20 years.
