Hey - cut the guy some slack. It is entirely likely that some of those kids were pelting him with Skittles and offering him some iced tea. He needed to STAND HIS GROUND!!!!

Self defense because even paranoids have enemies. I expect it's an insanity plea, but they found him sane (enough) to stand trial.

As deftly postulated in Farenheit 911-- we're drowning in guns and murders because we're consumed with fear.

"I do not recognize the Norwegian court. You've gotten your mandate from political parties that support multiculturalism," he said.
"OK, we will make a note of that general objection," Judge Wenche Elizabeth Arntzen said curtly.
You get the feeling she'll be saying that a lot during this trial.
It'll be good for Norwegians when this trial is over. Not that anything particularly for victims' families can lessen this, but at least get his face out of the news.

I saw the other day that Missouri State lawmakers are reviewing legislation to block cities from using local restrictions to ban concealed handguns on city buses and trains. And I was saying to my husband, why do these lawmakers assume that life is going to be wonderful if I can ride on a bus with half or more riders carrying concealed weapons? Frankly, the idea is frightening to me. I can very easily imagine a gun fight breaking out for no reason better than someone wouldn't give up their seat to somebody, or some such thing. Fortunately, I don't live in Missouri, but just the idea of it gets me wound up.
