Obviously the firearm was to blame. This is why dumbasses who refuse to own firearms are doomed.
They think they can't be hurt if they simply don't resist. You fools deserve to die -it's exactly like thinking your house can't catch on fire if there is no fire department.
FF to Utoya Island, scene of the shooting.
So there were about 600 people gathered in this tiny island. From the reports I've read in various newspapers, the lone gunman started shooting leisurely, with great calm, often shooting his victims a second time to make sure they were killed, taking his time, for about an hour and a half, meeting no resistance of any kind. And he had time to methodically kill 85 people (!!!) before any police were available for a nice soft arrest. Thats more or less what they say in the main Spanish newspaper El Pais: http://tinyurl.com/3z6wgug Amazing story.

[...] police began receiving reports of shots being fired on Utoeya, a tiny holiday island on Tyrifjorden Lake, 40 kilometres north-west of Oslo.
The gunman had taken a boat to where 560 members of the Labour Youth movement, aged 15-25, were on a summer camp.
''The person identified himself as a policeman,'' said one witness. ''He said it was for a routine check regarding the terrorist attack in Oslo.''
Blond, more than 183 centimetres tall and speaking fluent Norwegian, the ''policeman'' did not raise any suspicions as he arrived - but moments later screams filled the air as he opened fire with an automatic weapon. Some students jumped into the icy water in a desperate attempt to escape. One father said: ''I just spoke to my daughter on Utoeya on the phone. She just screamed. She says several of the youths are swimming away from the island now.''
Another parent who rang students said: ''A woman I know took the phone. She whispered: 'There is someone shooting, I have to hang up.''' Telephoning loved ones was the worst thing to do, as the sound of a ringtone would alert the gunman to those hiding from him.
With no hope of help arriving quickly, the gunman could take his time to pick off his targets. As the gunman carried on shooting at will, a police special weapons and tactics team finally landed on the island and captured him alive.
