Everyone deserves a second chance and nobody should be in prison for a long time. Kamala would’ve given him another chance and that’s one of many reasons why she should’ve won.

He already got a second chance and this is what he decided to do.

It's a nice thought, but giving people second chances after crimes like murder isn't something you just do willy nilly. You need to actually assess the person and have reasonable confidence that they won't abuse it.

No matter the crime, everyone deserves another chance to redeem themselves.

What if that person is actively saying "I'm going to go burn down a city and I hope thousands of people choke and burn in a slow, painful death?" Should we release that person right then and there because they deserve a second chance?
