Considering the media ran with a story that an Islamist group claimed responsibility who could blame them

Poor EdwardA ... that's the tragedy he sees out of Oslo ... bad PR for the Right ...

Tell us, is that a lot worse than the 80 dead kids, or only a little worse?

No, if there is an Islamic terrorist attack of this nature, most of us will feel about it the same way we do about this. Senseless murder, perpetrated by insane fanatics.

The disgust is towards those who eagerly jumped to conclusions in order to confirm their own beliefs about Muslims, and now look stupid. It is what it is, a tragedy.

For the record my first post on this thread was for folks to wait for the facts before assuming it was a Mohammedan attack. As to your silly question it doesn't even merit a response.

They are most likely wrong this time, 95% of the time they would be right.
