I gotta say it, sorry. What's with the cops in Norway?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Jome:
They had several alarm systems, most of them so called "silent alarms" connected straight to police.

I don't know how many museums you have been to, but armed guards are rather unusual in Europe.
I guess everybody and their mother are armed in U.S., but handguns, rifles, shotguns, etc. are pretty rare in most parts of Europe.

Btw, the topic title should have been blaming the museum security, the cops did their job..
They pretty much locked down the whole city, and put up road-blocks and all that usual shit.
Museum security = Not much to boast about..   :-\

I wonder why you didn't make this thread 1 week ago, when the Norwegian police's SWAT-team shot 2 of the most wanted bank robbers in Scandinavia after months of surveillance, and shot them inside a bank where the robbers were waiting for a Securitas car to arrive with millions of cash.

And they have also arrested 11 people in THIS crazy case, so for one times sake I'm rather happy with the polices work.  :)

I like it, i'm not much of a art buff but I see beauty in about anything, and it's definately a wonderful painting.  Of course it's so famous it's kind of blase to go on and on about it because every 2nd grader has been told 'why' it's such a great painting, but it's notoriety shouldn't detract from the respect it gets, I guess.

Trauma-san:
BTW, what do yall figure it's worth?  Like I said he painted 4 of them, and I believe (I may be wrong) that this is the most famous of them, i.e. the first one I posted.  I would imagine, under LEGAL circumstances, a wealthy museum would probably pay at least 20 million dollars for it, maybe much more. 

pappy:
nip it in the bud isnt a obsecure NC sayin,  i hear people say all the time.  well maybe not all the time but i hear it said.
