World court's agreement on punishment.

I wonder if ever a day will arrive where by courts of all lands agree on a standard punishment for crimes?

The following is surely impossible to accept in today's world?

Does cultural difference permit a lack of humanely and agreeably controlled punishment to be applied in all corners of the planet?

Not any time soon, but I don't think it's fundamentally impossible.

Anders Breivik gets a min 10 years for killing 77.

I wonder in how many countries that would occur?? ...😕

Woman in China gets 5 years for stealing a banana.... I wonder....? 😕

Standardisation has to come to meet at the river mouth someday, surely?

Anders will get a top class room, banana stealer will get stones, stoned and hard labour. 🙁

Ten years? He's been sentenced to 21, the maximum sentence in Norway. However, that sentence can be extended if he is deemed to be a danger to society. In other words, he got a life sentence, the same as he would get in most civilized countries.
