Four years for killing someone? I know someone who got 3 years for
growing some cannabis! I guess cannabis must really be dangerous!
I'm sure there must be people in prison right now doing more time than
someone that's deliberately killed someone (to say nothing of people
who've accidentally killed someone through dangerous driving).
