“Michael C. Lewis, 25, is charged with discharging a firearm into a car and building. The result? He’s charged with ‘one count of going armed with intent and two counts of terrorism.’ People sometimes go off, sometimes they commit crimes, sometimes  they are career criminals, sometimes not. Justice requires making distinctions.  But in no case should people be thrown into prison for 10 years or 20 years or 50 years, the possible terrorism penalty in this case, as a terrorism ‘add-on’ to all the other possible conventional crimes. Terrorism statutes with such penalties applied in such lax ways are in and of themselves cruel and unusual punishment.”
