Strap him naked to a donkey and turn it loose out into the outback, Mad Max style?
Walk, horse and carriage etc there is other ways to get around, keeping trains and planes for long rides would be enough, then again we have become pretty damn lazy. People traveled thousand of miles before without those luxuries im pretty sure we could again, not that we even would need to though. just saying it would be possible to live again without those things.

Turns out the guy "was known to police", history of violence. Stabbed his brother in the morning, had a female hostage in the car until she escaped, did wheelies in the middle of the city and then he mowed the people down.
Basically, violent asshole criminal having some kind of breakdown.
And in case anyone's still holding out hope, Vic police confirmed it's not terrorism related.

I see you know about as much about your own country as you do the rest of the world.
http://www.news.com.au/national/crim...7a338e01271325IT IS known for its unique landscape, laid-back larrikin lifestyle and being home to one of Australia’s most iconic landmarks, Uluru.
But the Northern Territory also has a less appealing distinction — being the homicide capital of Australia.
Statistics from the Australian Institute of Criminology show the Top End has had the highest homicide rate for the past decade - and here’s why.
Beneath the aesthetics are pockets of extreme poverty, homelessness, alcohol-fuelled violence and family violence — all of which, experts say, contribute to the territory’s high rate of murder and manslaughter.
According to the latest AIC figures, the homicide rate for the NT was 5.5 per 100,000 people. This is five times the national rate and almost four times the second highest state, Western Australia, which had a homicide rate of 1.4 per 100,000.
News.com.au examined 10 years of data from the institute’s National Homicide Monitoring Program and found the NT consistently had a higher rate for murder and manslaughter than anywhere else in Australia. In 2001-02, the NT’s rate was almost six times higher than the national average, 11.5 compared to 1.9. By 2011-12 it had improved significantly to 5.5, but was still higher than the rest of the country.
We have about a quarter your homicide rate.
This guy is apparently a Senator for the Lib Dems, a party most Australians would be surprised to learn exists.

I've lived in Melbourne for almost 20 years and don't even have a driver's license. You really don't need one here.
Busses like we have here, horses maby
Sure you may need to walk a kilometer to the buss but it's there. Ride bike to the buss perhaps there is many options here.

Just want to add that if there where no cars they would obviously put alot more buss stops around even in the country sides.

There is no way this is real. It has to be fake news. How can there be a shoot out. Everyone knows Australia took the Public's guns away.

Looks like he'll rot till he dies.In Victoria, only the Supreme Court can impose a sentence of life imprisonment.
A term of life imprisonment means imprisonment for the duration of an offender’s natural life. However, courts can set a non-parole period, after which the offender may apply to be released from prison on parole. A person will remain under sentence even after release from prison on parole if he or she received a term of life imprisonment.
A court may refuse to set a non-parole period if it considers the nature of the offence or the past history of the offender makes setting a non-parole period inappropriate. In Victoria, a sentence of life imprisonment without parole means the offender will remain in prison until he or she dies.
1. Only the police were shooting in this incident.
2. People can still get gun licences and own firearms, most people just don't bother.
3. There are still some illegal weapons in circulation that are mostly used in organised crime for gang-on-gang violence.

1. Didn't the article say there was a shoot out? For there to be a shoot out, both sides have to be shooting.
2. Don't the guns have to be kept at a Shooting Club, where you have to check the guns in and out? (Can't have one at your house)? Exception being ranchers that have them for predators and the likes?
3. Who would have thought. A law that makes owning guns essentially illegal and requires you to turn them in, does not stop criminals from having them.
