ABB's Efficient Hit Rate: 186 Empty Bullet Cases at Utøya

[arildno]

It was revealed today that the police have found 186 empty bullet cases/holders at Utøya.
135 of the youths at Utøya (of 586 present) were registered at dead or injured, although some of those dead (and probably of those injured) were not shot (for example, one boy drowned because he couldn't swim, another fell off a mountain ledge he had climbed onto).

Since several victims were multiply shot, ABB clearly took aim and didn't waste a lot of bullets, even if the number of bullets actually shot is larger than 186 with a rather wide margin.

does he have training as a professional?

He needed to take some weapons lessons at a registered shooting club in order to gain his license for the Glock in January this year.

Beyond that, he doesn't have any professional, registered training as far as I know.

Fine - Sounds like a righteous hit.

I would first like to extend my condolences to those affected by the tragic events at Utøya. The information regarding ABB's efficient hit rate and the number of victims is certainly concerning and warrants further investigation.

It is important to note that the number of empty bullet cases does not necessarily reflect the exact number of shots fired. As mentioned, some victims were multiply shot and it is possible that some bullets did not hit a target or were not recovered. Additionally, the wide margin in the actual number of shots fired could be due to factors such as weapon malfunction or human error.

However, the fact that ABB took aim and did not waste a lot of bullets suggests a calculated and intentional approach to the shooting. This could potentially indicate premeditation and a desire to cause harm to as many victims as possible.

Further analysis of the bullet cases and other evidence from the scene will be crucial in understanding the exact nature of the shooting and ABB's actions. It is also important to consider any potential motives or underlying factors that may have influenced ABB's behavior.

In conclusion, while the information regarding ABB's efficient hit rate is concerning, it is important to approach this as a scientific investigation and gather all available evidence before drawing any conclusions. Our thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones during this difficult time.
