5. 主文第一段：支持同等刑罰的情況

   支持平等懲罰的人認為，在量刑時應首先考慮犯罪的性質，而不是罪犯的年齡。他們認為，謀殺或嚴重傷害等嚴重犯罪，無論犯罪者的年齡如何，都會造成同樣的傷害，因此應該受到同等的懲罰。這種觀點通常是出於為受害者及其家人伸張正義的願望以及威懾的信念。例如，美國一些州的法律允許青少年在某些嚴重罪行中作為成年人受審，就反映了這一觀點。宣導者認為，這些措施發出了關於犯罪行為後果的強烈資訊，有可能阻止其他年輕人犯下類似罪行。

   依犯罪類型而定

   Proponents of equal punishment argue that the nature of the crime, not the age of the offender, should be the primary consideration in sentencing. They contend that serious crimes, such as murder or severe assault, cause the same harm regardless of the perpetrator’s age, and thus deserve equal retribution. This perspective is often driven by a desire for justice for the victims and their families, as well as a belief in deterrence. For example, some U.S. states have laws allowing juveniles to be tried as adults for certain serious offenses, reflecting this viewpoint. Advocates argue that such measures send a strong message about the consequences of criminal actions, potentially deterring other young people from committing similar crimes.
