    Norway has one of the lowest recivisim rates once people leave prison as well.

    That's probably because the first time you do it establishes a precedent, and it's not a crime the second time. That would be a restriction of your freedom, which is against human rights and all that.

    P.S. It's recidivism, you fucktard.

    the ship was not compartmentalized. I served on an aircraft carrier, and a hole in one part of the ship would not allow water to breach the entire ship.

    It was compartmentalised, and it was punctured in more than one place.

    I hope you weren't operating anything more complicated than a mop.
