they did take away a life but it was a thoroughly used life already nearing its natural end. Compare that with taking the life of a young child. The latter is far more harrowing so should not the murderer receive a lighter sentence?

That's a very sociopathic way of seeing things. You're basically labeling people by numbers rather than by individuality.

In my opinion everyone should be able to kill 2 people legally in their lifetime with no repercussions

No. That kind of thinking opens the door for elder abuse to be no big deal and so on.

I would argue deprived of a natural end by a psychopath. About the only time I would be okay with a lenient sentence here is if the elderly person wanted to end their own life due to a terminal illness and couldn't without assistance and so the person helped them.

Given the demographics of Congress and the Supreme Court this could be seen as a veiled threat

You get that the elderly can already be targeted for violent crimes because of their vulnerability right?

Elderly people are more vulnerable so they should get harsher sentences.

What an insane question

Can we not make murder into a cost/value proposition? Seems like a real bad idea.

They should get more time for preying on the vulnerable.

Should someone get less of a punishment for torturing a 16 year old dog and leaving it to die than if they did the same to a four year old dog in the prime of its life?

This. We have entire departments dedicated to making sure that elderly aren't physically, emotionally, or financially abused. Why would we open the door for subjecting them to more shit?
