It's not a secret, it's common sense:
> Norway has one of the lowest recidivism rates in the world; in 2016, only 20% of inmates re-offended within 5 years. [...] Norway's prisons are renowned for being some of the best and most humane in the world.

Treat people like people, it's that simple. Attitudes like ahh's arise from not expanding past using their lizard brain. They create more of the problem they purport to complain about. Straight contradiction.
- ahh 5y agoYou are welcome to advocate for pleasant, humane prisons. Run whatever antirecidivism campaigns you wish there. If they work, that's great. In either case: send people who commit crime to those prisons. If they do it again, send them back.
- gaganyaan 5y agoThis isn't some theoretical thing. Countries with sane laws around this see far lower recidivism rates, today. The proof is in the pudding, and your pudding is rotten. Give it some actual thought.
