Pride parade cancelled in Norway after gay club shooting

[Saint Frankenstein]

I have seen info where he says he is Christian. It's so hard to know real facts anymore.

It was originally reported that he was, but after he was jailed, he denied ever being a Christian and insulted Christianity.

There's gotta be a reason for that then. It's weird that he would go 180 like that.

He is a narcissist and a psychopath. His religious views don't really matter in the long run, because he's ****ed in the head regardless. He apparently lied about being part of some Knights Templar revival group or part of the anti-jihad movement (which is not far-right or neo-Nazi). He tried to present himself a certain way in his manifesto to benefit himself, it seems.

Its good that the pride parade organisers of Norway put the safety of parade goers first, but a shame that they were forced to shut down the parade due to safety concerns in the wake of a shooting that killed two people at a popular club in Oslo with the LGBTQ community

"Police said the attack was being investigated as an act of terrorism.

...police spokesman Tore Barstad said...

...the motive was not immediately known and it wasn't clear whether the shooting had any connection to the Pride parade.'

In my opinion.

Such senseless hatred and violence deeply saddens me,

In my opinion.

We are all human beings. When people start categorising others as non human they justify almost anything even murder in their own sick minds. This judging of others leading to murder makes animals appear more humane than us for they don’t do this sort of thing.

Just read the article. Why attack innocent people? This is so evil. It does not matter what moral beliefs anyone may have - to murder someone on a moral disagreement is pure EVIL.

Why is it being investigated as “terrorism”?

I wondered that too

I read in the article:
"Police have arrested a 42-year-old Norwegian citizen originally from Iran and are investigating the incident as a possible act of terrorism"

It seems, that Iran is linked to "acts of terrorism"

Terrorism: the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Horrible.

"Hail of bullets"....looks like the Wild West is coming to Europe.

Seems terrorism to me also.

Well, psychopaths can use many things to do harm. Religion is only one avenue.

Neo-Nazis these days don't tend to be Christians.

Even Christians don't tend to be Christians these days either. Many are more like Neo-Nazis.

What irks me about things like this is that the terrorist was probably given refuge in the country after fleeing Iran. This is one reason people don’t want refugees from Muslim countries because the odd extremist slips through. I can’t say that’s right but I can understand people being furious that, after giving refuge to these people, instead of showing gratitude, murder people from the host nation. I would deport him back after serving his sentence. He clearly lacks gratitude for being given asylum which seems to be the case here.

I totally agree.

And even possible, that he came for that purpose to Europe. That is the problem with such Religions that arrogantly belittle other people or their Faith, claiming theirs is the only or best faith. 100% sure, that one day fanatics stand up and do such stupid things, just in name of their Religion. Sadly there are plenty of such verses in the Koran, so I think in the next few years we might get many more attacks if nothing is done.
