Yes sir, that's my understanding,Sounds like a well planned attack. People in general do not understand or can not conceive the resolve of a madman. most of them are considered to be a genius.

The perp had three legal guns....

THIS will change Norway for a long time....

Probably so.

Setting aside the monstrosity of it for second.....what a freaking idiot. As a political act, this was monumentally stupid.

Tragic...But we’ll all be under suspect now.

The Tea Party needs to take a page out of the Wizard of IS handbook of inverting meaning. Call the detractors Right-O-phobics. Tell them Tea Party folk are the party of peace. The press is part of a vast left wing conspiracy. Ya know, these claims may actually have some truth behind them.

I believe it could of been one guy....he called all these kids to him so many came and felt it safe because he was masqurading as a policeman....then he pulled out the weapon’S, and more than one I read.

Golly like lambs to the slaughter. Terrible...can’t imagine the parents and to think so many kids saw this. Just awful!

Norwegian friend seems to think he was targeting the Labour Party because he believes their policies are destroying Norway. The children he killed were part of a Labour Party youth camp. A very sick individual.

The push for global gun control begins now.

I was waiting for an incident in the US or Mexico to give 0bama an excuse to move, but this should be enough to get the UN drive going. And we know the UN rules the leftist world.

"When do they start the war on Jesus?"

"They" (whoever "they" are) just did Matthew 25-40.

And unlike Allah aka Azaezel, the God of the Bible IS God. This won't go unanswered, by man or (IMHO) God...

No it doesn’t. It’s obviously a mad man.

I am still in shock.

I cannot imagine the loss. Perhaps as much as a 100 kids killed.

Honestly, I have had a drink. I also think of how conservatives sceptical towards islam will fare now?

Not well...

Then again, the perp killed as many tonight as have been assault raped in the last five years.

You write: I wonder what this does to Norway’s gun laws. They had been fairly permissive.

Maybe you should bone up on something before you make a statement that makes it obvious you are clueless:

Ownership

To own a gun in Norway, one must document a use for the gun. By far, the most common grounds for civilian ownership are hunting and sports shooting, in that order. Other needs can include special guard duties or self defense, but the first is rare and the second is practically never accepted as a reason for gun ownership.

Ownership is regulated and responsibility for issuing a gun ownership license is given to the police authority in the applicant’s district.

Rifle and shotgun ownership permission can be given to “sober and responsible” persons 18 years or older. The applicant for the permission must document a need for the weapon.

For handguns, the lowest ownership age is 21 with no exceptions allowed. For inherited weapons, it is up to the local police chief to make a decision based on the individual facts of the case.

An applicant must have a clean police record in order to obtain an ownership license.

I don’t believe for one minute it was a ‘tall, blond’ as ‘reportedly’ told.

Earlier reporting said it ‘should’ be one..

The news reports mnay of the kids rushed to the water to swim away and he unloaded on them in the water. I suspect we’ll hear the weapon he used soon enough...and there was more than one he used.

“I have read his posts. He was intelligent.”

Can you provide some insight as to motive?

The water is cold, gaijin. Hypothermia is an even greater problem for kids than adults because of the relatively small volume to surface area ratio as well.

That...would be the biggest gun massacre in history, I believe.

Can this be true?


There were larger groups of Jews and Poles murdered by NKVD shooting and burying them in the Katyn forest in Russia (over 20,000) and Muslim men and boys murdered in Srebrenica (about 8000 during July, 1995). Or are you putting all sorts of qualifiers on it? The biggest single massacre of a single group of people by guns within a single day by X number of perpetrators for Y reasons.

They were on an island.

Some tried to swim away, killer shot em, like shooting fish in a barrel.

This incident is straight out of a Muslim handbook, despite it ‘reportedly’ being a ‘tall, blonde’.

He was taken to the island on a ferry.
The people that took him said they thought everything was in order.

Do you think there is going to be backlash against FrP and Siv Jensen? My friend think there might. I should hope not. She’s a great lady and I thought FrP’s popularity was on the rise.
