I'd far a basic prison service that actually punishes - not through violence which you appear to have assumed - I mentioned nothing about violence being part of that punishment in any of my posts, you however have chosen to make a wrong assumption and read into my posts, something that I did not make mention of. Indeed I actually spoke not of defending the violence: right here....
I refer to the very basic nature of jails/prisons elsewhere in the world - that have conditions that are not pleasurable,are not enjoyable and are not some cosy little number for a few years.

But why would you champion such a system when Norway has put forward one that not only works but aims to turn criminals into functioning members of soceity? A system based on fear and misguided revenge only goes so far.
