Correct. While some of his victims were as young as 14, if I remember correctly, the bulk of those he killed at the Communist training camp were between 18 and 40.

Makes better headlines to just say “teens” though. Same way they do 20+ year old gang bangers here in the States.

” Convicted mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik spends his days in a spacious three-room cell, playing video games, exercising, watching TV and taking university-level courses in mathematics and business.”

Sounds more and more like the best career path today’s kiddos should be following worldwide is committing crimes or acts of terrorism.

I've made it no secret that Stalin had my GreatGrandparents "disappeared" during the holodomor for the crime of being kulaks. Farmers.
Mass murder, absent an open declaration of war civil or otherwise, does not strike me as a "healthy" means of resistance.

“It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, “Peace! Peace!” — but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!”
― Patrick Henry

History does set a precedent for violent action. Some would suggest that we are possibly at that historic tipping point already. Maybe we are. Maybe not.

Pray we can still "fix" this without having more people like this lunatic take actions like these.

"It wasn’t just some kiddie Christian day camp he shot up... It was a Communist indoctrination camp teaching young adults, not just kids, to be better Communists."

When they interviewed the little commies after the shooting, they thought they were simulated gunshots "to give them an idea of what it was like to be a Palestinian, living under brutal Israeli occupation."

Wow, still amazes me and Ive been reading about it for 40 years.

Jordan Oeterson has a short but interesting video on how the Kukaks were persecuted, and why.

Excellent summation. Interesting, if not particularly surprising, corollaries to today’s left and their hyperbolic characterization of anyone even coming close to espousing Republican, or even Libertarian, ideals.

It wasn’t just some kiddie Christian day camp he shot up... It was a Communist indoctrination camp teaching young adults, not just kids, to be better Communists.

Some years back I was reading some comments in some forums on other sites, and several people were claiming that this camp for young people was where the "elite" sent their children, and that Brevik's motivation was to make the people who were deliberately misruling the country suffer the consequences of their actions.

He wanted them to hurt the way people who had lost sons and daughters to their immigration policies had been hurt by the third world immigrants they had let in.

Now I don't know if this is accurate because I never delved deep into the motivations of a mass murderer, but several commentators agreed that this is correct.

If true, it makes the actions of Brevik more understandable.

This man should never see the outside of prison again. He should have been executed!
