When you bomb people to death you don't have to look them in the eyes while doing it, so it makes it a little easier from a psychologichal point of view.
But imagine the sick, twisted mind you need to gun down defenseless kids from point blank range, or looking through your scope and shoot them in the backs while they are swimming for their lives.
One would imagine there would have to be some sort of psychological stop somewhere, where that gunman would stop for a second and ask himself if this isn't enought already.
Just knowing that there actually are human beings capable of that in our society is truly horrifying!

To be honest if this comes about as true Neo-Fascist and Neo-Socialist groups have been on the rise in Europe, including Scandinavia so it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

When people serve in the military, they are taught that killing is just a job.
I'm pretty sure that the Oklahoma city bomber- Timothy McVeigh, used farm fertilizer for his huge bomb.

You know, as much as Europeans try to say us Americans are crazy and gun-crazy, it seems their youth have some serious issues. As of late it seems the younger generations of Europeans have a thing for killing innocents.
Now I am not stereotyping, we have our own share of problems on this side of the pond, but it seems to be escalating in those Western European Progressive nations.
Regardless, the idea that a 32 year old could act alone and cause that kind of damage is terrifying. I wonder what they will say he used in his bombs. Or if he had military experience.
Whats the death toll up to now? 18? That's horrible.

My thinking is that if this proves true, it will only justify the DHS in the US stating in recent days that domestic terrorism is now the biggest threat to security and that Caucasians are the new terrorist threat.

Fascism breeds hatred, no matter what the poltical or religious persuasion.
The making and selling of terrorist bomb parts is a billion dollar business in our world today.
The "civilized" countries have to try to eliminate the manufacture of bonb grade fertilizer; like what the U.S. is doing in their own country; as well as in Iraq and Afganistan.

Hope no one has already discussed this but I recently watched a documentary called "Until the Light Takes Us." It discussed a genre of music in Norway called black metal. Several of the musicians were of the mind that Christianity had no right to set up shop in the country and build churches on ancient Pagan worship sights. So they burned down the churches as an act of war. The fact that it had been 900 years since the religion was established in the area meant very little to these men and they used lethal force to speak out against what they felt was a forceful repression of the pagan religion. I thought it was an interesting story, but sounds unrelated to this event.

I can't help but sit here and think to myself...how can one armed crazy guy do so much damage...I mean...all it takes is one person with a gun to shoot back...unless he was wearing like a complete head to toe set of body armor...but I'm willing to bet just a kevlar vest...willing to bet it's not easy to be an armed citizen in norway...

And they are right - that domestic terrorism is now the biggest threat to security - but they don't educate people in the double speak they use. The government is by far the greatest terrorist threat to the country. And the DHS is double speak for the Department for Homeland Slavery and Abuse..
