The motive behind the weekend's act is not yet clear, but since the shooting took place outside a well-known gay club, it has been interpreted as a hate crime both inside and outside the LGBTQ movement.
Therefore, the will to manifest against violence and threats directed at the group has been strong, so strong that several thousands defied the police's dissuasion from meeting in central Oslo on Monday night.
And elsewhere in the country, organizers seem to be filled with the same feeling.
Margrethe Møllevik, who represents Mo in Rana Pride, was in Oslo herself on Monday and has no plans to cancel the evening's local parade.
Not worried about safety
- I refuse to hide in my own village because of who I am, she says to NRK.
Even in Haugaland, the pride organizers intend to defy the police's call.
The leader of the pride organization, Mirjam Bjerkenes, tells the Norwegian public service company that she is not worried about the safety before its parade, which also takes place on Tuesday evening.
In Sandefjord, a few miles south of Oslo, however, there will be none.
The organizers announce that they will follow the police's call, "but come back even stronger", according to VG.
The same applies in Kristiansand, where the local pride organization planned a demonstration for Tuesday evening.
Police: The hypothesis has been strengthened
At four o'clock on Tuesday, the management in a total of four police districts had chosen to follow the national police chief Benedicte Bjørnland's call to cancel the pride event.
The reason is the increased level of threat after the act, which may have a motive for hatred.
In a post on Facebook, the Oslo Police writes that it regrets the dissuasion from meeting, given that the need to gather after the act seems to be great.
At the same time, the circumstances surrounding the act are not fully clarified and the hypothesis of a possible hate crime against the LGBTQ movement in particular has also been strengthened, according to the police.
What is behind the reinforced suspicions is not clear and when SVT Nyheter contacts the police, the spokesperson does not want to develop what is meant.
