Oslo Massacre

I just had to post something about it. I haven't seen any post on the forum about it, not that there is anything to discuss.

We have quite a few Norse people on these forums, and some might even knew a victim. Therefore my condolences!

For those living in a wooden box:

I was shocked when I heard about this, just unbelievable and totally unexpected that it happened in Norway. Also this is even bigger than other massacres in other countries... Luckily I live far away from there...

Horrible indeed ;\  It's amazing how only 7 (?) people died to the bomb considering the damage it caused.

The guy had to be damn determined to go through with something like this tho.

Here's a blog entry from one of the survivors if you want to read it through her perspective; http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/norway/8656963/Norway-shooting-politician-describes-witnessing-Utoya-massacre-on-her-blog.html

I couldn't read the entire blog. It's so surreal, like you're reading a horror book from Stephen King. And to imagine that it took so long. 5 minutes feels like 3 hours when you're in a situation like that, what would an hour feel like.

So horrible :/ And the worst part is, it's getting overshadowed by the death of Amy Winehouse :S A death we could all see coming.

I've read some of the pages of his manifesto now, and watched the video he published to youtube - to me, it appears it boils down to a fear of Islam taking over europe, as the numbers of muslims increase every day, and thus the number of votes they gain in democratic elections threaten what's left of the "pure" europe\nations.

But killing off all the young politicians make little to no sense to me, if he truely wanted to have europe cleansed from Islam by 2083, I doubt this would be the way to do it, allthough our future prime minister could have been assassinated the 22nd of July.. wouldn't a political career be better?

leaving some links in a spoiler if anyone else wants to read up.. such an insane human creature..

He almost appears narcissistic due to the fact that he killed all those people on the island and not himself. The fact that he did not strike one day earlier indicates that he didn't want the prime minister to be there, probably due to security. I think he intended to do as much harm to the "enemies" as possible and then blowing up stortingets buildings and the slaugher of the child version of the leading political party seams like targets that you'd really make an impact by attacking. The fact that he choose Ut?ya proves that he wanted to do as much damage as possible.

I base all this on absolutely nothing but my own ideas btw.
If pluto isnt a planet because its a dwarf, does that mean dwarfs aint people?

My sis lives really close to one of the bombing places, but she was out for lunch when it blew, she was 5-10 minutes (walkdistance) away from there yet felt the explosion.

She thought they were just trying the cannons or something. Gnarly stuff.

Where did he get hold of the police outfit btw?

Can't you get very look alike-ish police officer costumes from any halloween shop now days? Goofing around online might come up with some sellers as well. I don't think they have to be a complete look-alike to fool most people.

That or he killed a cop and took his uniform.

I told you that the Scandinavian nationalism is bad...!

Obviously it doesn't excuse this atrocity, but still -- if he really did it because he's 'afraid' of the muslims... that's probably something to talk about. How on earth do you get to that point? Imagine how much he must hate muslims if he is willing to kill 100+ of his own countrymen...

I have no words for this. It's so horrible that it hits me deep in my soul.
I consider myself lucky not knowing anyone involved, but my DEEPEST condolences goes to the involved and family / friends of the victims.

I'm attending a memorial for the victims of this massacre today, in F?rde, Norway.

My feelings goes to the involved.

So I heard he can only get 21 years in prison... what happened to a lynching mob hanging him from the highest tree and setting him on fire? :)

That is the highest sentence you can get in Norway as of now, they're gonna up it to 30 years though, iirc. But what he can get is like... called "forvaring" in Norway, not sure about the english word. Which is basically, he's in jail for 5-10 years, his sentence gets put up, he gets new 5-10 years, and this can go on till he dies. Or something like that.
