🇳🇴 Utøya, Norway: after planning for 9 years, writing a 1,500 page manifesto, an anti-immigrant nationalist set-off bombs in Oslo, and then took a ferry to an island (Utøya) and sniped at kids for 1 hour and 12 minutes before the police arrived and he surrendered without resistance. One of the deadliest single shooter killings in the world, in one of the strictest gun control and most surveilled countries in the world. When seconds count, the cops are just 1 hour and 12 minutes away.
Anti-Islamic Nationalism - while they call him "Right Wing", there are plenty of left-wing anti-Islamic nationalists. Though he was also into religious conservatism, and virulently anti-Marxist. But left and right don't map well between U.S. and Europe (they are often opposites).
