Today, another person died young, albeit under very different circumstances. Everyone saw Amy Winehouse's death coming, yet few, if anyone, did anything to prevent it.

Dying young
What has happened in Oslo is incomprehensible. Almost a hundred teenagers and young adults with bright and productive futures-- gone. No one saw it coming.

Scary stuff what happened in Norway. Even scarier because of how many people support his ideology (while not his actions) and how many more there will be now that it's gotten some attention. The extreme right wing seems to grow all the time. Also interesting how little attention the fact that he's a Christian fundamentalist has gotten. If it were any other religion...
As to Winehouse, another member in the 27 Club, deliberately?
@Edvin: What's disturbing is that when it first happened, all the national news outlets in America was covering it, because everyone assumed it was Muslim extremists. Once we learned it was a native Norwegian who was responsible, TV coverage here is almost non-existent.
