CNBC reporting that cops arrived 90 minutes after shooting began.
A SWAT team was dispatched to the island more than 50 minutes after people vacationing at a campground said they heard shooting across the lake, according to Police Chief Sveinung Sponheim. The drive to the lake took about 20 minutes, and once there, the team took another 20 minutes to find a boat.
Footage filmed from a helicopter that showed the gunman firing into the water added to the impression that police were slow to the scene. They chose to drive, Sponheim said, because their helicopter wasn't on standby.

People who are liable to be slandered by any association with him.

Generally speaking it was safe to say he was a nut who wrecked great damage and effort spent understanding him or speculating about his motive is wasted and giving him undue attention. However showing why say something like the "triggered by fundamentalist Christianity" hypothesis is unlikely not that hard and dosen't require much effort.Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”

What kind of idiot would think the actions of one Christian is representative of all Christians? Other than idiots like Ben who judge all muslims for what al qaeda does.Originally posted by Heraclitus View PostComment

Only to the people who already jumped the gun to lay blame for this tragedy at the feet of Islam.Originally posted by OzzyKP View Post
I really hope it demonstrates to many anti-Islamic people that the problem isn't with the religions themselves, but extremists. There are demonstrably extremists on both sides. The problem is people living in North America are constantly being lectured about the dangers of Islam by many (not all, or even most) Christians. If anything, this is an opportunity for people to understand the problem is extremism, not a particular faith."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Oh please, like this isn't going to be used for political purposes? If he was a fundie then bad for Christians, but they shouldn't be associate with him if he didn't see his motivation as religious. Most Europeans are nominally Christian, it is more likley than not that this will be true of any crazies that decide to shoot a bunch of people as well.Originally posted by gribbler View PostLast edited by Heraclitus; July 24, 2011, 20:26.Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
