Martin Bryant Port Arthur Massacre

He committed the worst mass murder not only in Australia, but in the history of the world.

He achieved what he set out to do: surpass Thomas Hamilton's record set at Dunblane.

Martin Bryant was a man-child, and he hunted down and killed men, women and little children with all the cold-hearted cruelty of the killer he emulated.

Predictably, Australian Prime Minister John Howard, acted in the very same way the UK leaders had: he introduced strict gun control immediately following the tragedy.

Military style hardware was removed from the hands of the ordinary citizen.

These regulations, and the buy-back scheme for guns right across the country were applauded by both sides of the Houses of Parliament.

This is a forensic numerological criminal profile of Martin John Bryant, who was imprisoned, never to be released for his slaughter of innocents at Port Arthur Tasmania, an historic convict settlement.

Bryant had chosen the site because of its cruel history.

It suited, "because I heard bad things happened there."
