So, in the end, Anders Behring Breivik was judged sane and received a sentence of 21 years. Someone who killed a total of 77 people seems to be stretching the definition of sane.
agree with you there endies …
This seems to be the way with such crimes. In a final insult to the victims, killers such as Breivik get to feast on their own notoriety
well how is he though ?
Massacres and serial killing sprees almost appear to be career options for twisted narcissists with no way other way to get noticed, and make their mark.
from you ?
However, murderers only maintain their grip on the public imagination because ordinary people can't get enough of them.
eh? no wonder you didn't allow comments on this it doesnt make any sense at all, the author sounds very heated …
The culmination of Breivik's trial became yet more poignant, with news of another lone gunman at the Empire State Building. Back in Britain, Winnie Johnson, mother of Moors' victim Keith Bennett, died, with Ian Brady still taunting her about the whereabouts of her son's grave to the end. Who gave Brady the power to do this? In a way, we all did, just by being interested in him.
um er yeah … thing is this article is chocca block with the word homicide and murder when its actually referring to the murder of a relationship … something the author herself toys with gay abandon ….
If an embargo is wistful thinking, perhaps some of us could stage a quiet protest – by refusing to engage in Breivik's "big moment", by refusing to read, watch or listen to anything to do with him
ah now here i see hope endies … let it begin with me … enders you have to just do it yourself you can't wait until you've forced everyone to do it your way … um …

groan ...
the sheer violence of this entity ...
The revamped Superman has his parents killed off and the marriage to Lois Lane excised from his personal history, as if it never happened, which seems a tad rude. Sadly, Superman also no longer wears his pants outside his tights. I understand the need to "darken" superheroes or, to be more precise, re-darken them, but there was something rather camp and engaging about the early TV takes on Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Must the comedy always be completely leached out of them?
The Son of God ended up resembling something between Cornelius from Planet of the Apes and a cake accidentally sat on by the disciples at the Last Supper. Ms Gimenez wasn't apologetic, merely stating that she "hadn't finished it". One can only wonder what was next on the agenda – blasting Christ's image with a blowtorch? Jesus wept, indeed.

cinimon -
Evening cinimon, I hope you don't mind me butting in on this conversation, but if you're having a problem with comprehension, I think I might be able to help you.
Where showmaster says, "Gove, Grayling, Osborne and May have all been proven to lie to Parliament and the scum that support them keep posting in CIF"., I think he means the posters who are supporters of Gove, Grayling, Osbourne and May
I think I'd be tempted to add Cameron, Clegg and all the other Torys/Lib Dems.
I JUST WISH THAT WHEN TRIX WANTS TO FUCK SOMETHING HE HAD THE BACK BONE TO OWN IN INSTEAD OF CLINGING ON TO MY DISABLED DAMAGED VIOLATED GARMENTS ...

Let's give Breivik the sentence he deserves: silence

Two blokes running hell for leather down the street. Woman asks them what's wrong.Bloke replies: 'There's a lion on the loose!'Woman says 'Whereabouts?'Bloke says 'You don't think we're running towards it, do you?'
I'm afraid I'm gonna have to report you to the powers that be NorthMiner.
Not only have you put the women in that joke in a position of weakness but you have also made her, by implication and by your repetition of the joke, look weak as if women don't know which way to run if an enraged lion was running towards them.
I fear you are enforcing the latter day twentieth century image of women who were unable to stand up to rampaging lions that was all too prevalent in the main stream media of the time.
Your Nicola Adams' of this world would punch the lion's lights out without having to ask for a male dominted perspective.
I expect your apology on my desk in triplicate by the morning.
not if he's contacted her neighbour asking them to put poison down the drains in order to make her less attractive to other blokes she can't Trix ...
