It's all over the news here in Norway…

A man in the early 30s exploded a car bomb just outside the governments building, and then he proceeded to an island where over 700 youths were attending an political arrangement. There he started to shoot at all the people he saw with a machine gun, forcing people to either be shot, drowned from trying to escape, or hide and pray for their life as he walked around the entire island, killing anyone and anything he saw…

*really* crappy translation of a Norwegian page:

When I went to bed yesterday I was shocked; 15 people were confirmed dead. Today when I wake up I heard that 87 people is now confirmed dead.

I literally cried when I heard that…

R.I.P those who lost their lives.

Did the guy die?

If he did? How?

If he didn't? Was he caught?

If he was? What do you think they will do to him? Death Penalty?

I knew 4-5 people who originally wanted to go to that arrangement, but that decided not to some days before this, and 2 people who were there when he started the killings.

E: The guy is caught. We don't have death penalty here in Norway, and to be honest he deserves 40+ years of pain, not death.

Why did he do that for? Angry at the country or just pissed off with his life?

Why do people always link terror with muslims? To answer your question: No. He was a Norwegian.

This is somewhat like 11th September.. Norway has never before experienced such attacks..

E: I just read this:

Several victims "had pretended as if they were dead to survive," Berzingi said. But after shooting the victims with one gun, the gunman shot them again in the head with a shotgun, he said."

May he liked the movie zombieland?


Anyway I was reading this article and at the start I got the impression that it was like a 'Colombine' style attack, home-grown+no real political agenda, but then it went on to say they suspect it was al-Qaeda?

No, I am a muslim, that's why I thought they were going to blame it on us this time. But it's sad to see him do that. They should choke him to death.

It's just sick that people can do that.

Or rock him to death? Ancient way to penalize, and efficient in my opinion.

that sucks, do you know the condition of your friends that were on the camp?

Not yet.. Trying to contact them now

It doesn't make sense. Why attack perhaps the friendly and nicest nation on the planet?

I think you mean stoned to death? :p

I'm guessing country because it was an attack to the government building. But that leaves me also wondering what the motives were… They'll probably release more info on it sooner or later.

I'm very, very sorry to hear about this event. I hope the SOB gets what's coming to him.

Yeah, the first explosion was the largest terrorist act Norway has experienced, but the shootings made it 40 times worse….

The police still don't know why he did it… Crazy man…

I read on a news article that the person who did the shootings was a cop himself? Or he was wearing a cop uniform? One of them.

But seriously if you are THAT angry at your government/country, then I can sort of understand why you would want to bomb a government building, but why the hell would you want to go and kill youths?

We should torture him, such as forcing him to play rs for 24/7 and tickle for hours +.

Uniform, and yeah… There was no point in killing those youths..

He could have been mentally ill or insane, perhaps we are too quick to judge?

Wow this is terrible. At a loss for words! This is tragic beyond comprehension…

I don't think of those as legit reasons to kill 87 people.

There was a case here where a guy was "mentally unstable" and he threw his 4 year old daughter over a bridge …

^^^ that was in hawaii, his neighbors daughter, I saw the blood stain the next day on the highway…

It happened in Australia as well. I'll get the articles

Yeah. Although the whole thing was pretty horrible that killcount is pretty impressive for a single person. And he didn't even kill himself.

There is no "legit" reason to kill 87 people. Just wondering if this guy was mentally insane or what..

Right… I think I misunderstood the "perhaps we are too quick to judge?" part

Confirmed dead has been raised to 92

I live in Denmark.

This is so surreal :-( No punishment will ever make it right, was some video of dead people just lying around.

You can see some here, but BE WERE! it is pretty hardcore, you don't really see it (it is from a distance) but it still give me the chills:
You can see some footage here

^^ Watch out for that link, user only has 1 post…

Zytex, great to hear your friends are doing good and are fine.

The link goes to a danish newspaper. Not anything dangerous ;) I am from Norway too, this is just sad….

been reading about this while i deliver the newspapers here in the UK

he said "people in a few generations will thank me for this" and something about jews or nazis or something like that

~shut

All over the news here in the UK.. Aljazeera has been covering it almost nonstop today. Guy had been planning this for years and took him 3 years to write his terror manifesto.

The "funny" thing about this is how this just proves that there are insane people in every "group" of people. The finnish anti-islam and anti-immigration people instantly started blaming islam and saying the usual "all muslims should be thrown out of finland" etc. crap more or less directly after they heard about this, but once it was found out the terrorist was actually one of them they started the "well it was just one insane person you cant judge everyone in a group of people by a single insane persons actions". Oh well, inb4 a war between muslim and anti-muslim extemists in europe.

Terrorist attack was a distracting choice of words for some people, this had nothing to do with muslims, allah or any of that shit, the guy was a right wing extremist…

im sick

The death toll is actually less, around 70.

So you are saying that terrorism only refers to stuff done on the name of Islam, and all other stuff are in a different category?

Cool story, bro.

The deaths count is 76 now, iirc.

Read the fucking post again please. The exact point of my post was that you shouldn't use the word terrorism because in general PEOPLE ASSOCIATE it with muslims.

EDIT: I'm going to break it down so that I don't have to come here again -
