This is for all these pansy ass lib-tards who think the United States is the most violent country on Earth and tops the list in mass Shootings because of our “lax” gun laws…..guess again numb nuts.
This occurred in Europe, more specifically Norway, where gun laws are not exactly Democratic, still 77 dead and over 300 wounded.
Stay Alert, Stay Armed and Stay Dangerous!

This is the new terrorism construct folks; children terrorist and suicide bombers.
It’s insane, it’s immoral and it presents unique challenges to the western solider, civilian and LEO.
Can you train to shoot a 10 year old in the face/head who is about to blow himself up?
A Unique Challenge indeed. But one of many challenges the armed civilian will have to meet in the 21st Century.
Stay Alert, Stay Armed and Stay Dangerous!
Heroism — especially in times of war — tends to produce gendered associations. We think of men fighting (and dying) valiantly, while women wait passively at home for their spouses to return.
The historical record produces a different picture, however. Among the many heroes of World War II are these bad-ass women. Spies, snipers, surgeons, and more, they helped bring down the Germans with their own talents and specialties.
Imagine a Soviet sniper so deadly that the Germans addressed her over a loudspeaker, urging her to defect and join their ranks as an officer. That was Lyudmila Pavlichenko.
A former student of Kiev University, at the age of 14 Pavlichenko worked at a munitions factory as a metal grinder, and took up shooting soon after. When the war began, Pavlichenko wanted to fight for her country.
The army initially refused to enlist her to any position other than a nurse, even after she showed them her marksman certificate and a sharpshooter badge. They finally handed her a rifle and gave her an “audition,” which she passed with flying colors.
Pavlichenko had 309 confirmed kills during WWII – 36 of which were highly decorated German snipers. This figure makes her one of the top military snipers of all time.
Countless injures and shell shock didn’t stop her; in fact, she was only removed from active duty after taking mortar shell shrapnel to the face. The Soviets then decided they should remove Pavlichenko from danger and use her to train other snipers.
In spite of her obvious achievements, she still faced sexism from the press. While visiting the United States in 1942, women reporters continually asked her about the lack of style in her uniform, as well as her hair and makeup habits.
She put them in their place. “I wear my uniform with honor,” Pavlichenko said. “It has the Order of Lenin on it. It has been covered with blood in battle. It is plain to see that with American women what is important is whether they wear silk underwear under their uniforms. What the uniform stands for, they have yet to learn.”
Back home in Russia, she was decorated with many awards, including the Gold Star Medal (the highest distinction the country can give) and the title ‘Hero of the Soviet Union,’ and promoted to major. Later, she finished her college education at Kiev University and became a historian.
You can watch the 2015 Russian Made Movie Battle at Sevastopol which chronicles part of her life HERE.
I will warn you though, the subtitle translations are horrible, but other than that it is a pretty good WW2 movie.

These horrific war crimes reveal a humanity that isn’t good or bad, but absolutely sadistic.
Human nature is an amorphous thing: Optimists and pessimists can look at the same human history and present diametrically opposed assessments of the human spirit.
The optimist will point to acts of selflessness and historical displays of a collective will toward waging progress in making their case that human nature is essentially “good.” The pessimist will present ceaseless wars, slavery, and a host of other social ills peppering human history to construct a human nature that is more savage than humane.
Both are correct in their evaluations of the human condition. But it is acts of particularly relentless, unfettered violence that shock both the optimist and pessimist. These acts present not a humankind that is basically good, bad, or a little bit of both, but one that is absolutely sadistic.
Here are four of those very acts, war crimes that highlight the inhumanity of, well, humanity:
In August 1939, healthcare providers throughout Germany received a missive from the Reich Ministry of the Interior. The note stipulated that all physicians, nurses, and midwives report newborn infants (under the age of three) who appeared to suffer from severe mental or physical disabilities.
Two months later, in October, these health experts started suggesting that parents send disabled children to certain pediatric clinics in Germany and Austria for treatment. The catch was that children sent to these clinics would not be helped; they would be killed.
This program — started by Adolf Hitler and which eventually comprised the near totality of Germany’s psychiatric community — was called the T4 program, coming from the address of the enterprise: Tiergartenstrasse 4.
T4 essentially created a “death panel”: A bureaucracy of physicians was charged with deciding who had a “life unworthy of life,” and who did not. To make such a decision, T4 planners distributed surveys to public health officials, hospitals, institutions, and elderly homes, placing particular emphasis on establishing the patient’s ability to work.
Nazi emphasis on productivity shaped much of their justification for euthanasia. Indeed, they argued that funds could “better” be used on those who were not insane or suffering from a terminal illness — and that those who did led “burdensome lives” or were “useless eaters” were fit only to die.
And that they did. Patients were shipped off to these “clinics,” where they entered “shower facilities” that were actually gas chambers. Dead bodies were disposed of in ovens. Their ashes were placed in urns and sent back to their families, along with a falsified account of their death.
The T4 program — which “officially” ended in 1941 and which the U.S. Holocaust Museum estimateskilled at least 5,000 physically and mentally disabled German children — was a chilling vision of things to come. It was Germany’s first mass killing program, preceding the extermination camps that took shape some years later.

Desperate Times call for Desperate measures folks. Castrate a few and put a few to Death and see if things don’t change. -SF
Indonesia just approved a severe new batch of punishments for sex offenders who target children, including chemical castration and death.
“This regulation is intended to overcome the crisis caused by sexual violence against children,” Indonesian President Joko Widodo said Wednesday.
Widodo was not only referring to a general crisis, but to a specific incident last month in which a 14-year-old girl was raped and murdered by several boys while walking home from school on the Indonesian island of Sumatra.
Seven of the boys were arrested earlier this month, but national anger over the crime, and others like it, has not abated. Now, after a month of protests calling for stronger punishments against child sex offenders, the government has taken action.
Under Widodo’s new decree, judges presiding over cases against child sex offenders will be able to hand down punishments including chemical castration, 20 years in prison (up from 10), and death at their discretion, effective immediately (although parliament could later overturn the decree allowing these new punishments).
Even more than the death penalty, perhaps the most controversial punishment of them all is chemical castration, which involves severely lowering a person’s sex drive via certain drugs.
Over at least the past decade, there has been worldwide debate as to the efficacy of chemical castration, and Indonesia now joins South Korea, Russia, a few Eastern European nations, and several U.S. states (including California, Texas, and Florida) among governments that have legislated forcible chemical castration of some kind.
For now, Indonesia thinks such a bold measure is fitting for an incredibly consequential act.
“These crimes have undermined the development of children, and these crimes have disturbed our sense of peace, security and public order,” Widodo said yesterday. “So, we will handle it in an extraordinary way.”
