I can't believe this still is needed but religious and gun control side discussions will be met with harsh penalties from page 52 and onwards. | ||

I do not believe it was Islamic fundumentalists. They are just hogging the glory You underestimate what damage they are capable of, and what horrors they commit on a regular basis. I hope they will find everyone who is responsible for planning this complex attack, it's sickening. If it were up to me, they would have their harsh punishment, just as well the country of origin that allowed their organization to operate. | ||

I den sitter en polisman iförd polisuniform och skottsäker väst. Han kommer ut ur bilen och visar legitimation och säger att han är utsänd för att kontrollera säkerheten, att det är en ren rutinhandling med anledning av terrorangreppet. Allt ser trovärdigt ut och en båt tillkallas som kör över honom till Utöya. Sen gick det några minuter och vi hörde skottlossning, säger vakten Brænden Mortensen till VG. A silvergrey van came. In it a policeman sits with uniform and kevlar. He shows ID and says that he is sent out to controll the safety and that it's rutin. Everything looks believable and a boat is summoned that takes him to Utöya. Then a couple of minutes passed and we heard gunshots says the guard Braenden Mortensen. i can't imagine how this poor guy feels right now o0 | ||

The OP is a little outdated with info, if anyone at Norway or something could get a good recap up, I'd appreciate it. Working nights and you really miss out on the morning's happenings. >< Around 15:26 a loud bang was heard around Oslo. I heard it myself, a good 11km away. The blast was an explosion which was later confirmed to be at least one, but quite possibly two bombs. Rumours has claimed both a larger van being used and a bomb being planted wityhin the building, but I've yet to hear anything confirmed. The building houses the offices of parlament members, including prime minister Jens Stoltenberg. Stoltenberg was quickly confirmed safe. The current death count from the bombings is, as far as I know, 7. After the blast there were rumours that a car had been surrounded by police at Oslo gardermoen airport and three people arrested, but I've yet to hear anything new about that. I'm not certain at what time, but an hour, maybe two after the bombings there were reports about shooting at Utøya, where 700 members of the youth section of the norwegian labour party were at their anual summer camp. A man, dressed as a police officer had claimed to be doing a routine check. He showed up at the island, pulled out an automatic machine gun (Edit: Might have been a rifle + a glock. Not sure) and started shooting. Reports also claim that the man lured the teenagers to come to him before he executed them. Teenagers has been spotted swimming towards shore. Police was delayed by the chaos within the capitol, and the man had almost an hour of free roaming at Utøya. As the police arrived they managed to arrest the shooter. Uncomfirmed death tolls are in the region of 30-50. | ||

I do realize this sounds logical from a "sitting behind the computer screen" perspective but still I can't help thinking about it Oh and also on the topic about no guards on the island. If the guy was disguised as a cop wouldn't it make sense he would target the guard/guards first in a surprise attack and thus they would be completely "useless" when it comes to controlling the situation | ||

That just doesn't happen unless you are trained. | ||

It does not take a trained professional. Hell, all it takes is one radicalized fanatic with a week or two of training and along with quite a bit of indoctrination, and BAM, you've got a recipe for 30 dead. The ease of this type of attack is very disturbing. Have you tried using a gun before? Shooting a moving target at 100m ain't easy at all | ||

Yeah, 2-3 kids would have died if everyone "bum rushed" the guy with a MACHINE GUN. | ||

From what I read he had a regular Glock pistol and a Rifle with a scope. I presume the rifle wasn't a fully automatic one as I'm sure they would mentioned that. | ||

Norwegian police say man arrested at youth camp shooting is linked to the bombing in #Oslo It's obvious that there was some sort of link, but this presumably means that he was likely to be involved in actually bombing Oslo, rather than, say, an outraged citizen venting his anger at the bombing and blaming the Labour Party, or an opportunist using the bombing as an excuse to commit other atrocities (like the post 9/11 anthrax mailer). | ||
