So you mean in order to get put away for 30 to life, he has to kill or rape someone...

Nope.Given his record he wouldn't have to commit a crime that's *nearly* as serious as murder or rape for me to agree with a 30 year sentence.But in order for him to get 30 years I would hope that any theft he committed would involve a sum that has at least two digits to the left of the decimal point and that any crime of violence he might commit would at least result in the victim suffering a bruise or losing,oooohhh,at least three drops of blood.

...which given his record, he eventually will.

How can you be sure of that? If anything the seriousness of his crimes seems to be diminishing if anything.He's gone from arson/insurance fraud (very serious crimes) to drug possession (very serious) to stealing a 60 cent donut and giving someone a light push.

The idea that a guy should be arrested for up to life because his track record suggests that he will do something more vicious is crazy. That's akin to people supporting abortion because they believe that the child's going to have a bad life.

You can't tell the future, and until this man does a crime worthy of life imprisonment, he should not receive a sentence for such.
