text: More fake news and lies, MC.  It is beneath you to misrepresent so blatantly.  In my book, premeditated murderers should be summarily executed by public hanging or rifle squad.  So you are right, I would not support extensive jail for premeditated murder.  But premeditated murder is the exception as the worst possible crime.  Long prison sentences are routinely awarded for crimes that raise emotional rather than physical consequence.  Those are inconsistent with an enlightened rational society.
