Except that whilst we praise the sense of equality between king and pauper, we cannot believe that such equality exists between, say, >insert name of loved one < and a monster like Breivik. Common sense tells us that cannot be true, surely?
Or is it?
I'm not saying they wouldn't have, just wondering. It is impressive when You hear that from someone who had survives the tragedy.
I don't think You can ever rehabilitate someone like Breivik, but I would not sentence him to death. I'd put a heavy chains on him and make him work every day. Heavy, unpleasant work. To make him think about his doings over and over again. Not really a torture but definitely a punishment.
Sitting in a cosy cell (honestly guys, I've seen people working full time jobs in UK living in poorer conditions than he has in there) having all the time in the world to plan his strategy to fight the justice system - is that really what we should aim for?

I'm not sure that China's stats can be relied on to be entirely accurate if I'm honest.

Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.

the meting out of punishment stops with the sentencing, which is the preserve of the judiciary.
this is done according to legislature determined by the public through due democratic process.
a separate body, the prison service, is charged with the task of public protection and rehabilitation.
it is not for the prison service to seek to add to any punishment as determined by the judiciary.
to do so would be exceeding the remit laid down for them in law and leave them open to criminal charges for malfeasance in public office.
as disturbing and destructive as characters like breivik are, if we have a system of justice that is as barbaric and amoral as those we say we need to imprison for barbaric and amoral behaviour, we are not drawing a rational or moral line between his actions and ours, thus invalidating the whole point.
unless we can clearly and consistently differentiate our behaviour and codes from his we have no more right to imprison him than he has to imprison us.
