What I'd like to do to Anders Behring Breivik

He's probably manipulative to the core, he could be pretending to be sane, who knows?

He's been declared mentally sane.

Wow, I didn't know that. In my opinion that doesn't make sense, 'mentally sane' people don't kill and attack innocent people like that.

I swear they were activists for the labour party.

Killing a terrorist who killed almost 100 innocent people is worse than actually killing 100 innocent people?

His own holiday island with a quality of life higher than what most people here enjoy? Yes that is, "prison" in Norway, what a joke. He will likely serve 3 months for every life he ended.

I think it's pretty shocking that the maximum prison sent Norway is 21 years and after what happened, which was truly horrific it just doesn't seem justifiable.

Wow, I didn't know that. In my opinion that doesn't make sense, 'mentally sane' people don't kill and attack innocent people like that.

If humanity as a whole is going to shy away from a death penalty, then 'life imprisonment' has to be literal - should you commit murder or any other crime of similar weight, you are incarcerated until death. Twenty-one years is categorically not life, and shouldn't be seen as sufficient retribution.

The way it was suggested was basically torturing him to death.

I hope that was metaphorical? I agree the standard of prisons (at least the newest ones) is a bit high, but he won't end up on a holiday island. If he dies in 19 years he'll serve 3 months for each. If he lives longer that goes up. I can't imagine him ever being released. At least he won't get a chance to do more bad things.

Not the impression I got.

Someone else posted a video of the most horrific murderers living on an idyllic island so help rehabilitate them. Perhaps I'm wrong but the maximum sentence is 21 years with an extra 26 if he is deemed too dangerous. So at most he'll serve roughly 4 months for each. In many ways it would be better if he was declared insane as he could be held indefinitely for being too much of a danger.

I think it makes you worse than him, that will only make the situation worse, he needs mental help more than anything, punishing him for it will not solve anything.

He is going to be in prison or in some mental hospital for his entire life.

Therefore he is no longer a threat to the public and he will not kill any more innocent people.

I thought that was the main point of prison. To keep them away from the rest of us so they cannot repeat their crimes. I did not think the point of prison was to harm them or make them suffer a great deal. The maximum sentence is 21 years in norway however they can keep you for longer if they deem you a threat. He has made it pretty clear that he will do it again if he gets out. So he will probably be kept for longer.

Hurting him, killing him or torturing him is not really going to achieve anything and it means you would have to introduce capital punishment into the system. He probably wouldnt be eligble for that anyway because when he commited the crimes capital punishment wasnt around. It would be unfair to kill him and not kill the rest of the murderers.

Norway has one of the lowest re offending rates in the whole world by the way and many would say it is because of their prison system. As far as I know they focus more on rehabilitation rather than punishment.

It'll cost less money to keep him in solitary confinement for the rest of his life, with the highest level of security, than it will to put him to death.. just like it does in America.

The Norwegians are peaceful people (which makes the attack all the more heartbreaking), and they don't want to see him dead.. only punished. I agree with them.

He's an evil man, I'm certainly not denying that, but surely it's better for him to have to live the rest of his life in prison. Hopefully, he may even feel remorse one day.

I don't believe in capital punishment at all because usually there's a possibility they could be innocent after all. However in a cut and dried case like this I wouldn't want money spent to keep him alive either. I'd tell him the fence is electrified and then leave. He'd have a choice, either live in misery or kill himself using the fence because I really couldn't care less about him or his 'wellbeing'.

1. He won't do it again

2. It saves money

Saudi Arabia has a comparable murder rate and it punishes criminals rather than rehabilitate, why don't you want this? It's less cost than giving convicts dedicated psychiatrists, saunas, personal trainers and even then 1-in-5 reoffend.

Wow, I didn't know that. In my opinion that doesn't make sense, 'mentally sane' people don't kill and attack innocent people like that.

It isnt about what I personally want.

My comment about Norway having one of the lowest reoffendning rates in the world was directed at people who are shocked at the quality of their prisons.

1) He wont do it again anyway. He is going to prison for 21 years + as long as they see him as a threat. I think its extremely likely that he will spend the rest of his life in prison because he has said he will do it again and that indicates that he is a threat. This guy isnt getting out of prison and therefore poses no threat to the Norweigan public anymore. If anything killing or torturing him will be more of a threat as it brings a lot more attention to him and his cause.

2) Why not round up the rest of the violent criminals in prisons and kill them? It saves money and while youre at it round up all the disabled people who rely on the Norweigan government and kill them too. It saves money. The Norweigan people are the ones responsible for the system they have right now. Last time I checked Norway is a democracy and the people voted in the political parties which put into place this system.

You cannot kill or torture him now because that was not the law at the time of the offence. Norway doesnt have capital punishment (their choice). If Norway does it to him then they should round up all of the other people who have murdered and kill them too.

Also an execution can be an expensive process, if you look to America in a lot of cases the execution costs more than it would cost to imprison them for life.
