This is a sad, tragic day for humanity. Anders Behring Breivik – the guy who massacred 77 people (the majority of them teenagers) in Norway last year – is busy being sentenced as we speak. The court has found him to be sane and sentenced him to a mere 21 years in prison, MINUS the 445 days he already spent in custody. This is sadly the worst possible sentencing the Norwegian justice system reserves for crimes such as this.
Upon hearing his fate, he smiled as this is exactly what he was hoping for. Why? Apart from the obvious light sentence, Breivik sees himself as a warrior fighting the Islamisation of Norway, and wants to spend as much time in prison to continue to wage his war on “multiculturalism” by completing a book. And the jail he is staying in is not exactly Pollsmoor.
However, hope lies in the fact that every third year the court will assess whether or not he is still a danger to society. His sentence may then be extended by five years at a time if he is still deemed a danger to society after the initial period has been served. Let’s therefore hope he keeps his antics up for the rest of his life.
The judge is currently reading the rest of verdict, which will take a few hours. Breivik is also expected to speak in about six hours. You can watch it live via this link.
