Juveniles should not receive life sentences because, they are minors, it unfairly sentencing people to prison, and it unconstitutional.

It would be unfair because if you commit murder it's basically saying you can get off. But something like felony usually get 3-5 years which is ok but life sentence is way to far. 2 they are young and they cant spend the rest of there lives in juvie for robbing a bank. 3 it unconstitutional there amendment such as the 14 amendment to stop things like this.

some may argue that juveniles should get life sentences because a crime is a crime and they did put lives in danger and may never learn or fear they will do it again

But we should not punish them with life sentences because they are children while they may have done a crime we are not aware why they did that certain crime. So maybe a couple years in juvie then give them a chance to learn if they don't we can only go from there
