  • A Survivor Of Breivik’s 2011 Massacre Agrees That He Should Get Better Treatment – Maybe A Playstation 4?

    Anyone up for starting a prisoner exchange programme – we send one lucky Pollsmoor resident over to Norway and they send us Anders Behring Breivik back?

    Check CNN’s story on Pollsmoor HERE – not exactly plush living.

    Norway prides itself on treating its citizens with dignity and respect though, so much so that yesterday a court ruled that the prison where Breivik is being held (this is the man who killed 77 people, 69 of them children, single-handedly back in 2011) violated his human rights.

    Breivik also alleged that he was often subject to nude searches by prison guards, including females, and spent between 22 and 23 hours a day in solitary confinement.

    The court awarded Breivik 331,000 kroner (R580 000), as well as promising to improve his living conditions. Poor bugger, let’s look at those living conditions with the help of the Daily Beast:

    Breivik’s private prison compound consists of three personal cells: “one for living, one for studying, and a third for physical exercise”…

    The studying space is important for Breivik: in 2015 he enrolled in political science courses at the University of Oslo. A university representative will visit his cell to teach the classes, as Breivik is not allowed to access the Internet on his in-cell computer.

    Yes, he has a personal computer in his cell. He also has a personal television and a Playstation 2, which he deemed insufficient, threatening to go on a hunger strike if it was not upgraded to a Playstation 3, AFP reported in 2014.

    Hell, why not go all out and hook him up with a PS 4, this isn’t the dark ages Norway. More on his horrid conditions:

    From the confines of his three-room cell, Breivik is able to do his own laundry and cook, even making a gingerbread house for a prison competition…He has access to an exercise yard, newspapers, and phone calls.

    So what’s all this about that survivor who thinks he deserves better treatment?

    Despite the devastating effects of Breivik’s crime, even some Norwegians agree that his prison conditions should improve.

    “Our best weapon in fighting extremism is humanity,” Bjorn Ihler, a survivor of Breivik’s 2011 massacre tweeted on Wednesday. “The ruling in the Breivik case shows that we acknowledge the humanity of extremists too.”

    That’s one forgiving man right there.

    Norway enforces a maximum sentence of 21 years for all offences, no matter how extreme, although Breivik can be held longer if authorities deem he is still a threat to society.

    I’d imagine if he were released society would be a far bigger threat to him than the other way around.
