Anyways... minus the minor derailing (common occurrence here at the Lounge), I have more to add:
Are you aware of the conditions in which Anders Behring Breivik will be spending the next 10-21 (or more) years of his life? Are you seriously ready for this? I heard this on NPR and had to look it up to believe it: link
He gets three-roomy cells all to himself. In one cell is his bedroom and lavatory. In another, a moderate fitness gym. In the final, a study hall complete with laptop computer. This isn't a joke. And if what I'm reading from that linked report is also true, he gets access to a university education and can even write and publish books. I understand Norway's policy of rehabilitation, but this stretches the imagination of justice to it's limit... well, at least it does for me! I can't speak for the rest of you.
Edit: Found a more up to date link for you guys. Guess the first link was wrong about the university education: Link
