I don't even understand why concurrent sentences exist. if you do multiple crimes you should serve time for them all, regardless of who you are.
No, apparently it's more humane to abolish the death penalty and let them rot,
It makes some sense when multiple crimes were committed but it was one event. Robbing a liquor store becomes several different crimes with their own max sentences. Sure there were multiple laws broken but they only did one thing. The issue is how grey that line becomes and how much authority a judge has over a crime's punishment and when you factor in things like if the robber shot the clerk.
