I expect to be answered when I ask questions, I guess it cant be avoided that some avoid their responsabilities, like "guests" in other people's countries.
I will catch you off-guard one day, and you will have to show your cards...
Hmm.. Since I'm not a Dane, it might be hard for me to see it from the "native" angle, although I would like to express my own, personal view on crime punishments in general. And obviously I can see where you are pointing at with those questions.
On a personal level I find the good old "eye for an eye" policy to be fair: if I get punched in the face - it's fair to punch back, if I get something stolen - it's fair to expect the value of the item returned to me, if someone I love gets killed - I would probably want a revenge. But! It's something completely different when it comes to crimes unrelated to me personally - all I want is the isolation of an individual who commits crimes repeatedly.
I don't want anyone, even hardcore criminals to suffer. I don't know them personally, I don't know the victims, I might know nothing about the details of the case - all I want is safety and order on the streets. I want people who are unable, for whatever reason, to be a part of peaceful and lawful society to be gone. If they can be rehabilitated and introduced into society through education programs and such - it's great! If they can't find their place in life, or at least keep a low profile - I want them to be isolated from the rest. Not to be punished or be suffering, just gone or monitored 24/7.
So when it comes to foreign criminals there is a solution - they can be sent back to where they came from, and be off the streets. You can't send a local guy anywhere, Australia is a sovereign nation these days, so we can't just sail them all over there...
I find it hard to believe, that Danes have warmer feelings for Danish rapists and gangbangers, in comparison to foreign. But there is at least some sort of social responsibility for them, as the local criminals are probably a 100% result of local social/cultural failure, and there is a sort of a psychological blame on everyone... Ain't that natural?..
P.s. I apologieze for my shitty English these days, I keep using my phone, and it's a pain in the ass to correct text on it...
