    To take initiative in such a horrifying event at that age shows a lot of strength and compassion, a lot of kids her age would be too terrified to even think of doing that. Beyond glad shes alive, someone should make a gofund for her.

    I hope she’s ok. A 14 yo kid should not be subjected to this kind of behaviour. She’s a true hero 🦸‍♀️ for sure.

    Another absolute hero.
    I hope we can raise her some cash too.

    None of these absolute chads should be working ever again.

    Unfortunately I do not believe that there is a gofundme set up for her at this time, but if someone sets up one can they please let me know

    Apparently the solution to the cost of living crisis is to get shot. I'm sure there's better solutions but unfortunately the politicians and for-profit media are too busy trying to turn a mass shooting into a single for neoliberalism.

    Let’s create a Gofundme for this kid.

    I don’t know how to set one up but please someone do it.

    Also Young Australian of the Year too please.

    A true hero who acted in the moment. Only 14yo as well.

    She didn’t panic, didn’t freeze up like many would do.

    She rose to the occasion.

    Wish we all would act in a similar fashion when faced with mortal danger.

    If i read that correctly, Police crouched down and didn't do anything to help the children, so this 14yo got up to shield them.

    Young lady - what a brave, selfless act 💖

    That's exactly how I read it.

    A very brave young lady to do what she did. To continue protecting the kids even after being shot.

    This girl is a bloody hero.

    The police are more like social workers than police these days. Nobody wants the hard as nails police officer until things like this happen.

    Premier and others acting disgusted when people ask could NSW police have done more, a lot of first hand accounts would say yes…this should not be able to go on for 10 minutes uninterrupted.

    What a bloody sensational kid. For all the grief her generation gets, and for all the parents out there who are raising little shits, there are clearly some great people who are doing it right.

    I believe someone has started a GoFundMe for her here. I'm just gonna do a reply for those who specifically asked about something like this since I can't figure out how to add it to the original post

    Also I don't really post on the other Australia subreddit but if someone could send the article and the GoFundMe link there I'm sure it would be much appreciated
