I think you are missing his point (maybe?). The law is the law, no doubt about it; the mandatory sentencing part is what is in question. If a judge and jury (as the case may be) cannot be trusted to make the punishment fit the crime, how can they be trusted to administer a just verdict?

The mandatory sentencing is what I am questioning. If this law was ever applied then I think we'd see a lot of more high school students in jail or with police records.
