The deadliest attack on Norwegians in a decade took place on Wednesday in Kongsberg, Norway.?ÿ Five people were killed by a man using a bow and arrows.?ÿ I have not read every word of the story in the following link, so read at your own risk of being offended.?ÿ It simply struck me as odd that arrows were used.?ÿ BTW, the tragedy 10 years ago killed 77 people.

Well, the guy didn't want to violate the law by using a firearm.?ÿ That would lead to additional charges.?ÿ This is an example of the effectiveness of gun laws.

I always carry my concealed bow and arrows for protection when in Norway.?ÿ Special permit needed.?ÿ But really, they should limit the quiver capacity of those things. At least keep them out of the hands of crazy people.

Who is it that has to show up afterwards and clean up that pile of candles, posters, teddy bears, and other assorted momentos
