The Norwegians are quite happy with the fact that Anders BREIVIK has been jailed for the maximum amount of time, 21 years, permissible by their law !!! The very fact that he slaughtered indiscriminately, at random, 77 young people is covered by this sentence !!!
The death penalty has been abolished in Norway, but, and this is important, Breivik cannot appeal for early release before a period of 10 years !!!
If ever he makes any appeal he will be assessed "psychologically" and this report will be submitted to the same court !!!
Even if he has served his 21 years in Prison, if then he is considered to be "unsound of mind" he will not be released !!! This is why the Norwegians are happy with the sentence he has received !!! They are of the opinion that he will never be let out again !!!
Abolishing the Death Penalty to protect Human Rights is laudable, except when a prison sentence does not protect the Community !!!
The Norwegians seem to have got it right !!! Other countries would do well to follow their example !!!
