This just makes me sick. I heard on news radio that a single individual has been connected to this. I wonder if it is a situation like that guy who shot Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona, who got hold of a gun despite serious behavioral problems. Just very sad and tragic. 80 people-- that's the size of my church choir. I cannot imagine that. Most of what I know about Norway I learned from Epcot- stave churches, smorgasbord, the sea, boats, mountains, fishing, and outdoor activities year round. Prayers tonight for the people of Norway.

OSLO, Norway (AP) — A Norwegian who dressed as a police officer to gun down summer campers killed at least 80 people at an island retreat, horrified police said early Saturday. It took investigators several hours to begin the realize the full scope of Friday's massacre, which followed an explosion in nearby Oslo that killed seven and that police say was set off by the same suspect. The mass shootings are among the worst in history.
