One of the least known stories of the massacre at a youth camp and Oslo bombing in Norway, is that of the heroism of Hege Dalen and Toril Hansen, a lesbian married couple, who were dining at a lakeside spot when they heard gunfire and screaming as the Utoyan tragedy erupted. With utterly selfless disregard for their own safety, they sprinted to their small power boat, and ran it into the bloodied waters, picking up young victims who were wounded and in shock, as well as a few who had thus far evaded injury. They did this even as the deranged Islamophobic killer was still firing on his helpless victims. Then the couple returned and rescued more young campers, racing them to safety on the opposite side of the lake. Ever more astoundingly, Dalen and Hansen, returned two more times - a total of four rescue runs in their small,  now bullet-riddled boat. Hege Dalen and Toril Hansen saved forty young victims on the lake that day.

Considering the slew of hysterically anti-homosexual preachers who appeared last week at Texas Gov.Rick Perry's "so-called Christian" prayer rally, it should also be noted that none of the rescued youths are known to have turned gay.
