Heh, I found the most ironic part to be where he talks about the simplicity of prison life. Everything is paid for and he simply studies. Makes you start to think about what the proportionality of these sentences actually work out in the eyes of the victim of the crime. In some way the victim wants them awarded the biggest punishment possible, but at the same time that punishment comes out of their pocket in taxes that go to keep this person behind bars for an unreasonable amount of time. I don't know what the numbers are but that sounds awfully expensive to me and if I was an employee at a video store that got robbed I really don't think I would like all that additional burden on the economy as retribution for a few minutes of fear.
