this is really dumb... define competent, define extenuant, define fair, define just. god damnit when the hell is someone smart gonna right a resolution?!

"Recognising that different societies treat crime and punishment in different ways, and adopt different attitudes to which sentences may be appropriate:" so, in other words you can follow this stuff that i am saying if you follow it and don't have to follow the crap that i'm saying if you dont.
"1. Requests that member nations ensure their legal processes are fair and just;" so if i chop my procescution's heads off and i call it fair and just is it okay?
"2. Declares the right of nations to determine for themselves the sentences for violations of laws committed within their jurisdictions;" oh god, at least Gruenberg let me decide what sentences i make for the guilty! how about, hmmm... three weeks in the locks for stealing a candy bar!
"3. Calls for the creation of independent and accountable bodies capable of overseeing and reviewing sentencing decisions;" wow, just wow, who's gonna pay for this again?
"4. Recommends that nations devolve sentencing powers to the level most capable of taking into account all relevant considerations." weeeeeell, leoqadel devoloves sentencing powers to itself as for we take into account all relevant considerations.

guess what?
