    re: here's a brave military boy like bultana Adopted, bad temper, gun facination, worship of Charles Whitman, class clown, alchohol abuse, discharged from the Army, rejected by a woman, big fantasy life. You name it, Knight had it. Could there possibly be a better example of a Mass Murderer. I think not.

    So what triggered Knight's actions. Was it being kicked out of the Army just a few months earlier?
    or was it being rejected by his ex-girlfriend at a bar that night. Perhaps it was his car-gearbox blowing up earlier in the day. Perhaps he was just a time bomb waiting to explode, who knows, what I do know is that the psycho decided to go to war. He chose Hoddle street in Melbourne to take out his rage. It all started at 9:35pm. when he started with his fantasy.
    You see Julian was playing a game. In it that Melbourne was under attack, and he was defending it against the invaders. So armed with a Ruger semi-automatic rifle (the same gun as Ivan Milat used), a Mossberg pump-action shotgun, an M-14 rifle, and over 200 rounds of ammo, Julian started the game.

    "Something snapped. I went into automatic pilot mode. I was in an intense state of paranoia."

    First victim was a woman who got out of her car to inspect a broken window. Six shots later she was dead. Knight then killed the first two people who rushed to help her. You see it never pays to be a good samaritan. Knight took out another good samaritan as he ran to help the wounded. He also got a guy who was on his way to work, unaware of what he had driven into. One poor bloke was driving through with his wife, trying to miss the bodies, and wounded, on the road when 'BANG', his wife was dead. Perhaps the most viewed scene from this whole massacre is the motorcyclist who Julian cut down early on. He continually fired at the guy until he finally stopped moving. He then keep firing every time someone tried to help the poor guy.

    "See a target, shoot to kill, don't hurt, shoot to kill."

    Eventually Knight ran out of bullets and was captured, but not before he had almost escaped from the police helicopter. When arrested Knight tried to say that he had kept a spare bullet in his pocket, fo himself, but must have lost it along the way. That's probably why he came crawling out of some bushes pleading with the police not to shoot.
