I agree with this decision.

Rob a store go to jail.

It should matter whether the thief uses a gun or breaks in after hours.

It’s Congress’ fault though that our laws are vague. A lot of the Federal Register wouldn’t be necessary if our laws weren’t so vague in the first place.

I agree we have a problem with ‘piling on’ - extraneous charges to make the consequences higher, & maybe make it easier to get a plea deal.

On the other hand, committing a robbery is one crime. If you injure or kill the victim physically in the act the consequences should certainly be higher. A tough one to call.
