Like that one guy weef or weev, the iPad exploits guy, who went to jail and came back as a white supremecist. Was quite surprised to read that, worse thing is he wasn't in prison like 10 hard years or anything extreme, he was in there a minute though. Oddest thing I ever read.

On the other hand... Norway has some of the nicest prisons in the world. Worth checking out prisons in Norway if you never heard of how nice they are.

It's a myth Norway's prisons are the nicest, maybe for low security offenders otherwise they keep you in solitary for years at a time or worse transfer you to other countries to do your time like how they ship inmates off to Netherlands to a rented prison.

The country with the best drug policy is Portugal which quietly decriminalized all personal amounts and they have one of the lowest OD rate now
