If you read Ryan's quote, you'll see that it answers the very counter-point you raise. To wit, the end of Mr. Darrow's first paragraph:
"We will happily release you from confinement upon sufficiently demonstrating equal respect for us as we have shown for you. We all look forward to that fine day."
Should Breivik indeed be irredeemable and unreformable, then he will not be allowed back into society. However, I surely hope you would agree that Breivik is a rare case.
