Anders Brevik is suing over the conditions of his already-luxurious prison cell

[Deleted]

I can imagine that being without any kind of social contact must be fucking shocking. Imagine, he's got no internet, nobody wants to talk to him and he don't get to meet the other prisoners cus they might kill him. It's really easy to say that he has these "nice" things, but without social contact a human loses it's purpose.

i guess its sth to consider before commiting mass murder, maybe.

[Gib Lover]

That's a prison cell for a person who killed 77 people?

It's better than the place I lived back at university.

that's a prison cell in a maximum security prison in Norway. They don't have special rooms for people that kill 77 people.
They believe heavily in rehabilitation, so their prisons are very nice. Even for the worst offenders.

[Hiricine]

His victims were all social democratic youth members. It was no poor community.

Yeah they probably were well off, but some might have been immigrants, and in addition, if you're living with your parents all you get is a room and a TV to yourself, and when you grow up you have to leave and get a job to live on your own and incur tons of debt in school.

I'm betting he has a bigger room, a better TV, more game consoles and a better computer than at LEAST one of the kids he killed.

[Mistame]

The guy needs a fucking noose, not a playstation upgrade (or internet). "But social interaction is a basic human right!!one!" It's not (neither is access to the internet), but OK. Let the murderers interact with each other. Maybe then at least the victims' families will see some actual justice when they start killing each other off. When you take a life, you're forfeiting some basic human rights. When you take 77, you forfeit your right to exist.

Oh certainly.. I'm a social democratic, i could've been on that island those years ago. It's a scary thought and i can't imagine how it was for them all being trapped on this island with a psycho killer pretending to be a cop. He's the lowest of humanbeings. But that said, absolute 0 social contact for 20 years? I'm sure he takes his life before that happens. Which is fine, but it's a horrible reality to live in.

Immigrants that are going to a social democratic weekend on an island in Norway? They're not called immigrants anymore if that's the case.

[Dragonb]

Don't he get letters from all of he's "fans"? Pretty sure that counts as social interactions.

[Wyrt]

Honestly, we shouldn't even have prisons anymore. They're an archaic system. Make everything be punishable by fines, with a sliding scale based on how many fines you've already accumulated.

That's just...

That would essentially let people buy rape and murder...

[Shakadam]

He's just mad cuz he doesn't get headlines any longer.

Wow.
He has got to be the most entitled terrorist ever.

Holy crap, who the hell are you and what have you done with the real Tennisace... TWO threads with comments from you that I actually agree with?

putting my surprise aside for a moment.

They do shit differently over there than other countries.

Yes, and the friends and families of your victims are very stressed due to the grief you caused them you piece of shit.

Be lucky you got such a nice prison, fuckface.

I approve this message.

And everyone could do it, eventually ensuring no one would. Foolproof.

[Seranthor]

He is alone with his nightmares. He will be for the rest of his life. Giving him attention is all he wants.
I was very upset when I read this the other day. Not because of him, but because the news should have avoided this at all costs.

I wasn't upset, but I certainly echo your sentiment that giving him attention is what he wants.

Social contact to other people(prisoners/visitors) is not a luxury.

it isn't a right either.

[JohnBrown1917]

I don't believe guards should be allowed to treat him different than other prisoners, that is taking 'justice' in your own hands.

Varies from country to country.

[Seranthor]

Why hasn't someone just ended him yet? I doubt they would even get a murder charge, most likely will end up with a hero medal of some sort.

I suspect its why they dont let him around the other prisoners.

[Candy Cough]

Goes to show how shit my country is

In US, kill 2 people, life time in prison, cramped small little cell
In norway, Kill 2 people, get near 5 star hotel cell and get out 21 years later

[Vizardlorde]

Don't be a mass murderer. You don't get internet access, apparently. The regular kind still gets internet, according to the internet.

Dont worry the death penalty in florida is keeping me in check /s

[Deleted]

I have read enough about this.

24/7 Isolation with no contact to other people ever is against human rights. No matter what you did, you are still a human being with rights.

And he has the right to sue.

And which human right does this violate?

[Jotaux]

Lmao. You need to go to one of those fat camps in China where there's no access to technology.

Why do you want me to die?

[Mistame]

Let's call it "favoritism". If he'd actually "suffered" any justice, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

[JohnBrown1917]

Its seen as torture by many.
Assuming we are talking about US isolation cells, but I have no idea what kind of cell he is in.

That really does not change anything about what I said. Guards should not have the power to punish prisoners who do not break the prison rules.

Yet Norway has a lower recidivism rate, I wonder why.
Not that Breivik will ever be free, but he is a special case afterall. Will always be a danger.

"seen" and "by many" is not definitive by any stretch of the imagination. If a judge makes a ruling on that basis then i'd have worries.
