I was really shocked by this and dubious, so I decided to read further. There’s a great article about this here: http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35813470 As it turns out, this is more like a halfway house. Prisoners usually begin their term in a prison more like one we’d typically recognize - bars on the windows, locked in their cells. But the emphasis there is on successful reintegration into society.  As their sentence progresses, with good behavior, they can move into a facility more like this, where their freedoms are still restricted, but they can do things like network with people outside of prison, search for employment, cook and clean and look after themselves, and begin making plans for their reintegration into society.  As a result, Norway has one of the lowest rates of recidisvism. 20% as opposed to America’s 76%.  It seems like a shocking idea to us because of where and how we live, but apparently, Norwegians are addressing the real problem. When you take people who can’t function well in society, and then…help them do that?…they….do. Without the crime-ing.

Turns out treating people like human beings makes them more likely to act like human beings….

[liquidsodanium]

But won’t that incentivize some people to go back there since they get treated so well and get a nice room versus the streets?

[kompanie-mutter-deactivated2021]

If you read the post above, it says Norway’s recidivism rate - that is, the rate of released criminals who go on to be arrested again - is 20% versus 76% in the United States, so for the most part, no.

Isn’t that white-lined black cross on a red field flag a Nazi flag? Are we going to talk about how wonderful it is a Nazi gets a nice halfway house?

Posted a pic of myself a while back wearing a shirt from a riding stable named after a saint that included a Celtic cross in their logo. Got several anons asking me rather loaded questions about the cross implying I was guilty of an apparently unmentionable crime. People who want to see monsters everywhere are a trip. They’re funny, pathetic and repugnant at the same time.

LMAO CAN YOU FUCKING IMAGINE HAVING THE MONEY TO EAT LIKE THIS THO

[girl-sim-deactivated20230806-de]

The average price for chicken breast is around $3.20/lb

One pound of rice is maybe a dollar

Fresh broccoli is typically 2 bucks per pound

You can buy a 5-pound bag of russet potatoes for 3 dollars (about 60 cents/lb)

12 count eggs are around a dollar

You’re looking at maybe $10 without tax for more than one lunch meal, you could probably get at least 3 meals out of the list above (about $3.33 for each meal). That’s far from expensive.

[indyart]

Meat is the most expensive part of these meals and can be exchanged for cheaper meats.

i know this exact post has been made hundreds of times but the funniest fucking part about Warhammer 40K lore is that orks are canonically reality-bending telepaths but are too stupid to exercise their abilities consciously; instead, things that enough orks think should work end up actually working, even if they violate the laws of physics. orks think that painting their vehicles red makes them go faster and painting missiles yellow makes them explode more, and so it does. captured ork mechs that get disassembled are usually revealed to be full of nothing but random scrap metal and wood piled haphazardly together and refuse to work when piloted by a non-ork. orks have fucking openable windows on their spaceships to let in a breeze

[philosophicalconservatism]

Force is greater than influence, therefore political power must always be more closely checked than financial power. Now the ideological notion that financial power is in principle always dependent upon, and fostered by some singular political power is not accurate. Merchants from foreign nations have traded with one another since the beginning of time. The most successful of these merchants wielded a superior financial influence that was not the result of the designs of some single political entity.  Such an influence exists objectively and is not reducible to being given some political advantage.

Cronyism, where political power infects financial influence, is not a vice of free markets but of statism.

No worries @loki-against-onision , I got one

Ok, so, I researched this. I read his court files.

What this guy did was he let two young couples who wanted to have sex away from their parents’ eyes into his house. Here’s a “statement of the facts” from an appeal after he was convicted:

“Fourteen-year-old Stephanie was dating 18 year-old Timothy Cutshall; fifteen-year-old Rachelle was dating 23 year-old Chris Hall.  On the night in question, Hall and Cutshall asked the defendant to let them use his house for a liaison with the girls. The girls lied to their parents about where they were going, went to the defendant’s house, and had sex with Cutshall and Hall; the defendant never had sex with either girl.

“The evidence was in conflict as to whether the defendant knew that the girls were underage.  There was no evidence that he knew they were younger enough than the men to render their otherwise consensual intercourse statutory rape.  Finally, there was no evidence that he knew that the girls did not have their parents’ permission to go to his house. Nonetheless, the defendant was convicted of aiding and abetting statutory rape, second degree kidnapping, and taking indecent liberties with children.”

The person who shared his sex offender registry completely made up the “sexual assault” charge, and “kidnapping” didn’t sit right with me, so I looked into it. What actually happened was complicated. What it looks like to me is this dude, possibly under the influence of the alcohol he said ruined his life, made a stupid decision to trust these kids and had some creative prosecutors throw the book at him in every way they could think of.

Wow that’s way worse.
