Is our own Sonic still there?

Hope he and our loon Norway Red are safe and sound.

Sounds like just one man at the moment but it just highlights the damage one or two individuals can do.

I noticed Jan Aage Fjortoft joined twitter, so started following him today. As a result I've been following his updates on the situation in Norway all afternoon - very sad indeed.

Death toll now over 80.  Tragedy on a terrible scale.  All you can do is offer your condolences to everyone affected by this.  I hope Sonic, NR and the people they know emerge unscathed.  Sadly, I think most people in Oslo are going to know someone affected by this is some way.

Sounds horrific on that island. Guy dresses as a policeman, gathers the kids together apparently to pass on some information about the bombing and then starts shooting.  Even shooting some of the ones who tried to swin to shore. 

84 confirmed dead there and 7 from the bombing but they're still expecting that number to rise.

Terrible, terrible day.

Nobody that my girlfriend or myself know were involved directly but friends of my girlfriend's friends were on Utøya.

Such a horrific and mindless thing to happen, so more surreal that it although we're 1,000 miles away it feels like it's happened on our doorstep.

Jan-Aage was interviewed for about 5 minutes on 5 Live last night - he lives just outside Oslo. He had been near the explosion. Spoke movingly about the situation and the need not to over-react. Sounded like a really decent, intelligent guy.

Right wing Christian fundamentalist.

Last night BBC had some professor of Religious Radicalisation from UCL saying it was most likely Al Qaeda and he based that on that it's 2.5 months since Bin Laden had been killed and it takes roughly that long to plan an attack. Fucking incredible.

Did I hear right that the maximum sentence this murderer can get under norwegian law is 21 years !

The ironic thing is that he has more in common with AlQueda than he would propbably like. Both are religous zealots who are warped enough to believe that they are doing what is right in the name of god.

I'm sure we all share your revulsion...but also have a feeling you made an embarrassing wrong call about the perpetrator.  Who did you think it was?

I thought Id have a look at the Stormfront forums to see what was made of this whole horrible affair by other loopys.

In a way it follows a simular pattern to our national press..

They start off revelling in it thinking its Islamic terrorists,then they realise its one of thiers,then they decide its because he's a Mason and finally he ends up a Zionist Jew.

If it wasn't so awful it'd be hilarious.

Charles Brooker's article on the media coverage is worth a read.  Probably already been posted but can't be arsed to check.

The BBC have an sms conversation from during the shooting between a girl on the island and her mum;

Dread to think what it was like for them going through that as they would have both known each sms could have been the last, just reading it freaked me out.
