2. Young adults (those under 18) are protected by the law, even when they break the law. In most states, people under the age of

18 can be charged with breaking the law, but they can receive lesser punishments than adults committing the same crimes. One of the reasons is that young people are too immature to make adult decisions. They are more likely to make mistakes and should not be punished as harshly for these mistakes. In your response, argue against this point of view. Use the rhetorical device logos to prove that young adults should be treated the same as adults. Be sure to introduce your point of view in the topic sentence, support your viewpoint with details, address the counter-claim presented in this prompt, and end your response with a concluding statement

Law should provide the means necessary for the victims (direct and indirect) to be repaid for the damage suffered. Therefore, the age of those who committed the crime(s) should not matter at all, for the damage done to the victim and society remains of equal amount and importance.

It´s a fact the law was designed to protect people under 18 due to their mental maturity but it is possible to assume the maturity necessary to commit the crime is equivalent to maturity necessary to understand it´s consequences and to accept responsibility for one´s actions.
