it costs upwards of $300,000,000 to house and execute an inmate in California's Death Row, that is a SHITLOAD of money spent on fleeting and largely symbolic vengeance. The Norwegians are smart about their system, people in America just don't realize the paradox of the modern death penalty.
In regards to this shooting, does anyone HONESTLY believe that a lone-gunman blew up the downtown and then found an obscure island political camp and managed to gun down so many people?
I will also say this, notice that in a properly civilized society and police-force they can apprehend a mass-murderer at the scene of the crime for trial, just as the shooter at the Frankfurt airport was arrested, and yet here in Los Angeles the police can't seem to arrest
anyone even remotely suspected of being armed without an officer involved fatal shooting? They even carry around the "ham sandwich" to plant on those poor souls who were killed yet unarmed ;(
