Maybe they should drop Breivik off unarmed on a Norwegian island, and let the victims families travel there by boat with whatever weapons they wish to take......

21yrs for cold blooded murder of one person is lenient but 21yrs for murdering as many people you can manage, in this case 77, is a ridiculous sentence... why would anyone even try to "rehabilitate" this excuse for a human being?

Yes he did..and in doing so proclaimed to the world that in Norway you really can get away with murder.

...and, unbelievably, he has a computer in his room. It's not connected up to the internet, but it has a printer, so he can type up his sick views, print 'em off and mail them out to other sickos (yes, he's allowed envelopes and stamps, too).

I don't call that "enlightened", I call it "lack of common sense".

They should have sent him to Guantanimo and stuck him in with the pink jim-jam wearing bearded ones.

That would have been fun a white aryan supremacist being called to pray 5 times a day

I have always been opposed to the death penalty, even in this case. It would be the easy way out for him... and he'd even be given a peaceful death, which his victims were cruelly denied.

It's sickening to know that his sentence is 21 years, he'd still be young enough to form a life for himself when he gets out

I'm not opposed to the death penalty, why is his life so important? without him being kept in the world more money to be spent on suffering innocents.

Simplistic view? Well yes, I suppose it is, I would rather keep the starving in this World alive than anyone as sick as him, just imagine another Einstein could be going hungry because this animal is kept alive.

The death penalty is another issue, the powers that be won't let the public have a vote on, because as with the vote on pulling out of Europe, they know the majority of people in this country would vote to bring back the death penalty. A sentence like the one handed out in Norway is a prime example of the punishment not fitting the crime, he should have got 21 years for each murder, to run consecutive then they could think of parole

Maybe it has something to do with stats like these:

Something for the "throw away the key" and the "hang 'em high" crowd to mull over.

Norway's population is less than that of London spread over a huge area, and its biggest city has fewer than one million people. It is also very prosperous thanks to oil and gas and has universal healthcare and free schooling among other social benefits. When you are there it feels very safe and I could detect little or no sign of an underclass.

Perhaps these are some of the reasons why crime is so low.

Ya bet the families of the 77 people he killed are really pleased with with that
