Yep....another attempted mass public shooting in Europe stopped by pure, dumb luck....... the mass shooter entered the Mosque....after all but 3 people had left......
Which Norwegian/European gun control law stopped this mass public shooting?

“The man carried two shotgun-like weapons and a pistol” and was wearing body armor, a helmet and black clothes, Mr. Mushtaq told Norwegian televisionTV2. “He broke through a glass door and fired shots.”
Only three people were in the mosque at the time, at about 4 p.m. local time. If he had arrived earlier during prayers, the attacker could have hurt many more people, he said.
