Want to say thank you to all the messages of support. I live i oslo, i work right around the corner, and i have firend is the youth movement, and we are all as a nation and as a people stunned. *You can in away understand where a man with i bomb commes from, its impersonal, its not targeted, but for a man to walk around and murder 90 youths in cold blood... it beggars belief... he called the kids to him, saying he was police, there to help them, then he started to shoot them that was gathered around him... kids...kids

Its hard to stop crying some time...

What we cant understand is how someone can walk calmy around and shoot young people, young people. he called then Stoltenberg Jugend (stoltenberg is our primeminister), some irrational hatred for out sitting PM makes him go and kill kids who share his political view... how do you get to that plave in your headspace, that it becomes a logical and abjoctive... To target the govt. buildign housing the PM's office you can understand, the bomb was a terrible tragidy, this was an unspeakable horror. I want to wake up from this nightmare, where someone can do that to children... I dont feel afraid, i went to work today, i will not be afraid, but i feel dead inside... i think ill be very very sad for a very very long time...

iv reached rambling point, so forgive me, i just need to air my thoughts someplace or ill explode

It's cool Maulkin, entirely understandable. The guy killed the kids because they were attending a camp that builds leadership skills. He was afraid they'd grow up to be influential leaders of the left. He was crazy and committed an atrocity that no one will ever be okay with.

I've got some friends up there that are okay, luckily. One of my friends was visiting family and came back to the states the day before this happened. She's still not sure if her cousin is okay though and I'm desperately hoping they can get into contact soon. I think her cousin was attending the camp because she mentioned visiting it so often during her stay =(

Its a great camp, the kids look forward to it all year, some news medias *(foreign) made it seems like indoctrinaton and what not, but its more like band camp, BAND CAMP!!!! they come together to share their common politial views, to meet firends from all over the country to sing and laugh and grow, to meet their rolemodels, their leaders, these people the believe in and share a world view with, that they help get ellected. To sit around a campfire and sing combaja and roast marshmellows and be kids.

band camp, they where just kids at band camp...

I just hope nothing like this ever happens again. It's something no community should ever have to endure.

I'm sad to see this happen, I hope the families will be given enough peace to carry their burden without being harassed by media and pissed by politicians.

[Maulkin]

Thats to late for that. There are cases here now where people are furious, because the media was calling them while they where trying to hide on the island, and people are livid and hope noone was discovered because their phone suddenly rings, or vibrates. When you panic its the little things you forget, and when you remember it might be to late...

I understand them taking him in but i wouldn't have been able to resist putting one between his eyes. Unspeakable atrocities like this really tears at my heart. Innocent young ones? It takes something else to be able to do that.
