Print it out, send it to friends, etc - I don't often go there or post here with a link there - but this came up on a search I was doing and it shocked even me.

We are not dealing with rational people. I know you know that already, but this is further proof - and if we are gonna call out Beck on it, let's call out and link to all of those on the RW like this so that others coming here can see it.

Two of those who died:
Alexander Aas Eriksen, 16. He helped start the Red Cross youth group in his hometown, Trondheim.

Hanne Kristine Fridtun, 19 or 20, was said to have tried to swim away from the island. Described as a kind and warm person who fought for the weak, she was active in helping wheelchair users in her community.

And more names are here:

1. I'd rather not go over there...
I gather it's some kind of idiotic comments about the victims. Can you give a summary?

2. I've noticed over the past several years that...
...you can generally (not always) tell the political gist of a diatribe about religion simply by the way they spell Muslim. And, seeing as how I spelled Muslim, it's safe to conclude that I'm coming from a liberal- or left-view. You'll notice vast swaths of the right- or conservative-view use 'Moslem' instead - a term I haven't seen personally since back when Reagan and Poppy were in office.

No, these people aren't rational. They can't see the distinctions in groups or events, and can only think in aggregate terms.

And the more strident ones really, truly, want us dead.

3. Disgusting. Not worth summarizing.
step one - collect large number of insults, smear terms, ad hominems, etc.
step two - collect false analogies, not forgetting to invoke Godwin's law repeatedly
step three - delete adult knowledge of grammar, spelling, sentence structure
step four - apply above steps with wild abandon

If you removed the psychopathic criminals (the ones who seriously support genocide) and the batshit crazies (the "Hitler Youth") crowd - there's no one left to have a debate with.

4. They are going to great lengths to blame the victims,...
lie about the camp and "justify" the massacre of children:

"But in the grand scale, this “youth camp” is frighteningly similar to the Hitler youths. They are being brainwashed by leftists to attack Western civilization...../snip/...If this is what motivated the murders yesterday, then the man who killed these children simply adopted the techniques of the leftists and Jihadists. It doesn’t make it right, and that’s not the way we operate. But the left and the Islamofascists sure as hell should be the last ones complaining about the immorality/amorality of the attack."

"These were 16 to 22 year old sons & daughters of COMMUNISTS & SOCIALISTS at a Communist Socialist training camp
Hmmm, training camps for children, hmmm, where have we seen this before ...?"
