I grew up in that area, still got all my school friends living in that area. I was thinking "Hmm, wonder if Cindy finally topped off her boyfriend....."

If parents didn't bring kids into the world, where would we be now. Definately not enoying our Fords.

With all the events over the past few weeks, the Media is quick to sensationalize an event like this and link it to recent gang related violence like Sydney Airport. So I'm guessing then that both men shot each other. Clearly no winners here.

It's a shame the media doesn't have the integrity to report factual information, rather than a headline grab.
