Breaking News - Major Terrorist Attack In Oslo, Norway

[CountDeMoney]

I'm not going to throw stones.

I know I can come off as quite callous a lot of the time, but frankly I need it to stay alive. If I ever drop my guard I'm going to break into a million pieces.

EMOTIONAL BREAKTHROUGH.  EXPLOITATION PHASE NOW.  USE ARMOR UNITS FOR THE CRT SHIFT.

Oh jesus Meri is falling for it. Women.

Just seen on the BBC a powerful eyewitness account from Adrian Precon, he played dead amongst the bodies, but the gunman came up to him and shot him, just missing his head and injuring him the shoulder.

That was the same guy I saw interviewed by ABC.

[mongers]

An ABC news report I saw said that the guy had a fully automatic weapon, which makes even a mass rush problematic.  600 people in one group, yeah, that's still a good option, but the 600 people in this instance were apparantly spread out in several groups.

The witneses appear to agree that he had an automatic weapon, so I think you are right.  Plus, people don't tend to think too clearly under gunfire, even when trained.  The Flight 96 people had a lot of time to consider their position, and didn't face gunfire, so their response probably has to be considered atypical.  Nobody rushed the Va Tech shooter, and even at Fort Hood, fully trained military people didn't rush Hassan until several minutes after he started shooting.

Yes, it's largely wishful thinking to say 14-19 year-olds should charge a gunman, especially as someone else has pointed out they were spread out across the island.  Plus I think his initial deception of asking people to gather to explain what was happening and then gunning them down would have put the fear of god into the vast majority of people on this forum if in a similar situation, saving those who've had military training or experience of combat.

Probably the only poster on this forum that wouldn't be too shocked/scared/etc. to act would be Siege. He would kick the gunman's ass, then drop a diseased animal carcass down the gunman's family's well.

I would brain him with a garden tool while he reloaded.

I know that the one time I was exposed to live fire I got plowed over by a swabbie on the way to the emergency exit.

Problem with Seigy is that some day, he's gonna be the gunman.

I read that too, but someone said Norway has 'forvaringsdomme' like Denmark, which means he'll be deemed unfit/dangerous for society and will probably serve more than the 21 years.
