It's like saying two people commit an assault: one with no prior convictions gets parole and one with a laundry list of prior convictions gets jail time. What you're arguing for is a mandatory sentence that takes no context into account... Why does it make sense to give a person with no priors just as harsh a sentence as a multiple convict or to never up the sentence regardless of how many times a person commits an offense?
