Eye-witnesses say there were two persons shooting, according to some newspapers. Their stories are unbelievable. Some survived by playing dead, laying on the ground with bodies over them.
Would someone of the "You don't see fundamental Christians blowing up things or shooting people, only fundamental Muslims behave that way" crowd care to explain?
Police confirm that they are looking for another person. There are still several people missing at Utøya, minisubmarines are now searching the waters.
We need to teach people that if you are involved in a mass shooting incident everybody needs to try to attack the shooter. They will have a much better chance of disarming the shooter(s) if they work together.

Hooray! You got one out of thousands of terrorist attacks over the past 10 years.
84 dead. Horrible. That is unheard of in a nordic country.
What does this sound like?
"Police forces in many western European countries worry about rising far-right sentiment, fueled by a toxic mix of anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant bigotry and increasing economic hardship"

So you're saying that while this seems to be a terrorist attack by a christian fundamentalist, it doesn't count as valid argument in the discussion if there is christian terrorism, because there are more instances of muslim terrorism?

It sounds like the kind of talk we hear here every day from the far right wingers.
Get this: he faces 21 years in prison. He'll be free in his early 50s
Actually, he'll probably get life in containment. People convicted to crimes like rape, assault, murder and arson can be sentenced to detention rather than prison in Norway. It is similar, except the prisoner isn't released untill he is no longer considered a danger to society.
Which, in this case, would be never.
