Started in a grocery store. No information whether it was a long bow, cross or hunting bow. He did have a high capacity quiver, one witness reported.

Norway has very strict gun regulations. Man arrested was not Norwegian.

RIP

Clearly we need some common sense bow and arrow control.

Couldn’t get a Mini-14.

Sad and sick. The bow and arrow is a lot quieter than a silencer. One more example that mass murderers do not rely of firearms.

A cross bow would be pretty slow to reload. By hunting, I'm going to guess you are implying a compound bow. I would hypothesize a recurve or something along those lines, but then to me, it really doesn't make much of a difference.

Apparently a Muslim convert, though I doubt they'll call the attack what it is.

They are saying it was an act of terror. He was on a watch list of some kind. “May have been radicalized.”

I read this, and just shook my head. I made a sarcastic joke on social media with that very phrase, right after I saw the news story.
