This Norwegian Prime Minister dude doesn't know what he's talking about. That was a mass murder incident, not terrorism. White people can't be terrorists.

- malka 12y agoI really hope that this comment is sarcastic. But due to Poe's law, I'll never know...
- vinceguidry 12y agoIt was sarcasm. It's very subtle but it's easier to figure out if you sound the comment out aloud. The "white people can't be terrorists" is the giveaway. His comment didn't work because it shoehorns an American political narrative onto Europe. But if he'd said something like, "white people can't be looters" in the context of, say, the Hurricane Katrina disaster, it would have been much clearer.
- markdown 12y agoI regret posting it. A comment better suited for Reddit. > an American political narrative Reflected two days ago by a former CIA deputy director who called the French event the worst attack in that part of the world since 2005. Norway didn't count apparently. https://encrypted.google.com/webhp#q=cia%20worst%20terror%20attack%20since%202005 https://encrypted.google.com/webhp#q=cia%20worst%20terror%20...
