    Mosque attacked in Norway

    White Norwegian shooter, local to the area, with two shotguns and a pistol. He only managed to wound one before he was stopped. Very lucky. This could have gone really bad. Norwegian media reports he was fascinated with the New Zealand attack. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-49308016

    XXL sports chain also creates advert that causes conservatives to go nuts

    Tragedy in Norway/Norwegian politics (Split from "Norway Bombings/Killings") Split from this thread. I read he was a supporter of the Progressive Party in Norway. Could you give some details on this party?
