Firstly, the guy acted recklessly, and deserved punishing, however...
the sentence was supposed to 'send out a message', but the message I got was that there's no fair justice for individuals, just arbitrary sentencing to suit the state's agenda. The sentence was absurd; reckless drivers who actually kill people get shorter sentences than this.
It's ironic that the state should decide to persecute this man so badly, considering he was involved in protesting against the state persecuting students like him.
