And prison is the worst possible place to do this, as others have said, as they will be worse when they get out. I understand it (and would once have agreed), but in the bigger picture it’s a simplistic, shortsighted, knee-jerk revenge reflex with worse outcomes.

You guys keep looking at this issue from the standpoint of an american, but you’re completely forgetting that this is NOT america, this is sweden. Swedish prisons (or northern europe in general) have a MUCH higher focus on rehabilitation than punishment. Sweden only has a reoffending rate of like 25%, not the 80% you got in that fucked up country over there.
