&gt; which I think is a mostly valid reason for downvote-and-move-on. For instance, it&#x27;s not clear whether you think the prosecution of Capone was just or unjust<p>I don&#x27;t see why this makes the comment less worthwhile. I think going for Al Capone that way was a terrible idea, but you seem to have changed your own mind in the other direction based on my viewpoint-free comment. (At least, that&#x27;s what I get from &quot;I&#x27;m not sure that I think a seven-year sentence would have really been sufficient for the fullness of his crimes&quot;.) I highlighted a point from your comment and pointed out that a lot of people don&#x27;t share that value at all; I think that&#x27;s worth noting regardless of whether your ultimate conclusion is &quot;hmm, Al Capone illustrates that only punishing people for the crimes they committed is a bad idea&quot; or &quot;the US justice system has been going downhill since the early 20th century, but I wish people would come to their senses&quot;.
