What should be the maximum permitted sentence for a 14-year-old offender?

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

Ultimately I think it depends on the crime and the mental capacity of the perpetrator, but as someone who opposes the death penalty in general, I obviously wouldn't support that as an option.

And I really don't care how we treated adolescents in the 1800s, no matter how good people back then (who, by the way, knew very little about child psychology) thought it was.  You don't keep tradition just for the sake of keeping tradition.  If something turns out to be bulls**t, you move on from it.
