I'd like to share something with you I heard on the BBC about the Oslo incident. There was a man they interviewed who heard somthing was going on on the island and answered a call for help, got on his boat and went straight to the island.
Even when he saw injured people being taken away he advanced on, even when he discovered that there was an armed gunman killing people randomly, the promise he made to go back to the students he met overrode his fear for himself.
And he wasn't the only one. Between 50 and 100 students were evacuated in this way by good people who it wasn't their jobs to put their neck on the line but THEY DID!
This was your chance to promote the good shepard and the good samaritan, two of the most powerful christian stories and what do you do, you become the wolf and the barbarians, picking on people in the time of need.
You are alienating us, the people you need to keep your religion alive and eventually people will question these sort of harmful actions and leave. So back off gaming, any damage you do to something that is becoming mainstream will only damage you in the long term.

Now an IMPORTANT message for all those boat owners in Norway that went in to get people out
The world owes you a debt, you didn't need to go onto that island but you did, you risked your lives to save children in what can only be described as the darkest hour for the world.
A salute, a thank you from humanity and I hope in time the Norweign politicians get off their backsides and reward you properly.
