people here seem to expect that prison will be populated by muzzies, rewarding them with luxury. not really, scandinavian prisons have been like this for decades, and it's not the muzzies who end up there, they get slapped on the wrist, remember?. it's the native population who end up there, that didn't change. but it remains like this because it is ironically the last remaining timebubble, the last isolated enclave, outside of rural areas, of what was once an extremely high trust, prosperous society (with heavy dose of socialism thrown in).

i got to know a bit that kid who stabbed a few people at his school around 2015ish (norway) and called the cops on himself, they are given a monthly allowance and can buy almost anything they want with it (bought for on their behalf by the staff, obviously). he bought an electric guitar and was already allocated an ipad for internet access free of charge.

i support the idea of a prison system that looks like this (putting aside for a moment the idiosyncracies of who and how people actually end up there and how deserving they are of it). there is a real chance of rehabilitation in such an environment.

that kid is now happily married, btw. he only got out about 2 years ago
