I'm fine with that; the media here's certainly calling him a terrorist. Joel Send a noteboard - 23/07/2011 09:59:15 PM
His political affiliations hardly matters now.

or why cant we call him a Christian wingnut. When a Muslim does something like this their religion is mentioned every single time they are. I love the double standard.

Considering it sounds like this guy would normally be the first to accuse Islam as a religion following a terrorist attack it's a valid point. Of course, as Helene noted, this guy is no more representative of Christianity than bin Laden was of Islam, and if we're going to focus on the religious angle that's probably the way to do it. Maybe with a healthy dose of "another reason to sequester religion and politics".

Why can't we just call him a wing-nut and agree? - 23/07/2011 07:27:33 PM 690 Views
why cant we call him a terrorist? - 23/07/2011 08:01:33 PM 579 Views

Very much true - 23/07/2011 09:31:14 PM 582 Views
Actually, it's more like "too bad the maximum Norwegian prison sentence is 21 years". - 23/07/2011 09:33:52 PM 647 Views

I don't think that the Norwegian criminal system is based on that ideal. - 24/07/2011 03:03:42 PM 526 Views
Which almost without exception makes a lot more sense. - 23/07/2011 10:04:48 PM 584 Views
I have a feeling - 24/07/2011 04:08:34 AM 582 Views
Not at all. Luckily, we don't have death penalty - 24/07/2011 09:16:28 AM 644 Views

It's important to distinguish between Roman and modern fascism. - 25/07/2011 03:48:24 AM 604 Views
The problem with that is simple. - 25/07/2011 02:15:38 PM 533 Views

My guess is they're viewed as "collaborators". - 24/07/2011 12:05:00 PM 595 Views
Even so. - 24/07/2011 01:55:08 PM 576 Views

Well I just don't comptrehend how he could be a "true" or "real" nationalist... - 26/07/2011 03:25:35 AM 581 Views
That's clearly not true - 26/07/2011 10:35:05 AM 537 Views
