Theory: when you make a mistake and murder 70 innocent kids, you forfeit your value to society. Prison for life keeps you from making another whoopsie but the damage you've done transcends that. The community feels vulnerable after a core belief, like "my kids can go to camp and not be brutally massacred" is challenged. Sadistically executing the killer is more for the victims and community as a whole to feel safer. It doesn't matter if it prevents anything because it helps to restore confidence in society.

Prison for life keeps you from making another whoopsie but the damage you've done transcends that. I kind of agree with this. Also let's say I am a dad and my daughter one day comes home with a black eye (I am never having children so don't worry about this and I am not even a male anyway). Anyway, as a dad I ask her how she got it and she sobs "it was him again". I would seriously sit there and consider going to her boyfriend's house and blasting double o buck right through his skull if I knew I'd be lounging in my pajamas playing Ridge Racer the rest of my life as punishment. Like, it would be something I could live with. I'd miss out on some stuff sure, but daily I would tell myself I did the right thing as I loaded my save file for Twisted Metal Black. In the US though? gently caress. That. I sure as poo poo ain't even considering that poo poo here. And I'm in liberal Connecticut. The fact that Norway's punishments are so laughable that it makes murdering someone something that I could actually sit there and say "yeah, I could deal with the repercussions" shows that their inmate coddling might actually fail at deterring some crimes. Isn't there some loving middle ground between tent city AZ and a loving PlayStation? jenny jones fan fucked around with this message at 03:10 on Apr 21, 2016 |

Lot of retard fuckers itt. As broken as the US justice system is, I'd still rather that than the one that gives a mass murderer a massive private cell, entertainment and basically opportunity to continue to preach his views. Like, apart from the fact that he should be dead for what he did, imagine how much this guy is going to cost the state over his lifetime? Imagine being a citizen that chips in a part of your income for his Playstation?

You can't blame the prison system here for that one because most people convicted of murder are going to jail for the first time.

There's no reason to keep around unrepentant, legally sane mass murderers who are guilty beyond any doubt whatsoever, much less rewarding them with a victorious human rights lawsuit on Hitler's birthday. And I used to be opposed to the death penalty outright. It's much more troubling that prominent voices in Scandinavia and abroad are blaming his mass murder on "multiculturalism" (Sørine Godtfredsen, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, etc.) without consequence, and that Danish MPs are having dinner parties with his number one source of inspiration, the latter getting zero attention from the press.

Yeah for sure, but who knows if that's more of a causation or correlation stat so that's kind of shaky. It's like pointing out how places that ban abortion tend to have higher abortion rates, obviously making it illegal doesn't magically generate mor unwanted pregnancies it's just sort of linked with a society that shits on women and makes abortion more desirable.

I feel like prisons are pretty inhumane to begin with. Can't we just talk to the prisoner and ask him to stop his shenanigans? Sure he slipped up and killed 77 kids, sure he doesn't regret it and in fact revels in it, but maybe a truly enlightened society would forgive him for his mistake and integrate him again? I say let all prisoners free, locking them up in cells like animals is not morally defensible

if you're the kind of freedom hating European or socialist who doesn't want to give your government a mandate to give out death sentences or do torture, you pretty much have to keep some people locked up and attempt to provide them with ways to distract themselves during their confinement, which is possibly for the remainder of their lives, to such an extent that you don't end up doing what is effectively torture, and that's regardless of whether or not re-integration is feasible or not, which doesn't change a thing if you as a society have committed to the decision that death sentences and torture is something you don't want your government doing

You can't seriously tell me with a straight face that they wouldn't have shipped his rear end out for disposal, or that his handlers back home along with anyone unlucky enough to be standing near them wouldn't have been predator droned at the earliest convenience.
