The guy was on cycles of steroids. Could that have played a role? I think so.

I believe that Norway has a similar system as Germany (where the limit is 25 years) - namely the device of preventive custody (called Forvaring in Norway). If the official punishment runs out, but the detainee is still considered a threat to society, he or she can be put in preventive custody indefinitely (until he or she is no longer considered a threat).
So, the law says we can only lock you up for a maximum of 21 years, unless we feel that you're a danger - in which case, detainment can be indefinite. Do I have that right?
Yes. Officially, preventive custody is no "punishment", which means that he or she has some additional rights while in jail (such as: wearing ones own clothes, or being located in a separate part of the jail), but he can be locked up indefinitely (subject to review of the custody every two years). The details will differ in Norway, but I believe they have a similar system.

"Danger", of course, means danger when he/she would be released - which means that there are few 85 year old detainees with bad eyesight.
Is there a mechanism for separate charges to be brought against a multiple murderer, or would all sentences have to be served concurrently by law not to exceed 21 years?
The dogma lives loudly within me.

This will move Norway to the right, towards xenophobia and intolerance of diversity.

I can't help suspecting that a few TNCRers are privately cheering.
No, Norway will continue to be quite liberal, and for some this will serve as a reason to despise all those who are not liberal. Broad brush and all that.

Kenny, you think there are people here on TNCR who are cheering? Really? Come on now.

Well, that's the opportunity such atrocities present - we can go over the perpetrator's life with a fine toothed comb and neatly stack everything we don't like into the "contributed to this" column and everything else into the "meaningless" column.

Personally, I would put the steroid stuff into the meaningless column. The media/government campaign against steroid use is for the good but completely riddled with scare tactics and faux science.
As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good?

Mass murder of children loses everybody, so I agree nobody here or virtually anywhere else is cheering the specifics of the attack.

If he had limited himself to bombing a "liberal HQ", he'd have gotten some unspoken sympathy, not necessarily anybody here, but in general.

Same can be said if a lefty had bombed a "conservative HQ". They'd get some unspoken sympathy as well, though the lefties would have much stronger emotional/social blocks against admitting to those sympathies.

People who take things super-seriously are terrifying.

That's why I'm always unsettled when I hear people say that their beliefs are more important to them than their own life.

It sounds good and noble, but anybody who's beliefs are more important to them than their own lives, will hold those beliefs to be more important than anybody else's life too.

Good commentary. The monster's views and manifesto should never see teh light of publication other than in the most general terms. We know why he did it - he's evil and deranged. The rest - the specifics - is just noise in the background.

Has Copper posted since this happened?

No, I've been away.

I made a few posts today.

Have you done anything filthy and disgusting since this happened?
The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy
