It'd be nice to see some of your photos of Oslo though Rune instead of stock news images.

^^ Haha, it's such a funny comment... Wanna know why? The murder rate in Norway is something below 0.78 (the rate for 2006, and since that time it's actually decreased). In other cities, and especially most significant U.S. cities, the murder rate is much much higher.

In the year 2006 with the murder rate 0.78, we had 36 murders and in 2009 we had 29 murders. And that isn't the numbers for Oslo. That's the numbers for ALL OF NORWAY.

Though it's a bit true that some immigrant groups are much more violent, but even they understand that they can't just do *everything* and anything and not face consequences.

"That's the numbers for ALL OF NORWAY."

And those numbers include all murders not just violent crime and murders committed in public/in the streets. I actually did a calculation now and if I'm not mistaken the murder rate for Norway in 2009 was 0,60 (down from the mentioned 0.78 in 2006). Man, we're approaching half a murder per 100,000 population per year! Crazy low.
