It wasn’t the amount - It was the “who” that the homeless person robbed. He didn’t steal from a local liquor store or 7/11. He robbed from a bank. And bank robbery, since the time there have been banks to rob from, has always carried certain heavy punishments. And the punishments are well known to even a homeless person. And very often the judge gets no choice or leeway in the sentencing.

And TB&W also stole from banks through fraud.
The judge isn’t the issue being called out, the laws and associated punishments are.
So… yes. And my point stands.
