Mental harm is just as damaging.

No dude, just no. The mental harm from being photographed is not “just as damaging” as trauma from a physical assault. Pull your head out.

And he got a month in prison and several years of parole. The guy is clearly mentally ill and needs professional help. Locking him away for decades would help no one and would only worsen his mental state when he would be released. That sort of punitive punishment is not helpful and is demonstrably harmful to society.

Isn’t that just the sort of thinking that got all the Starks killed?

Mental harm doesn't vanish when there is physical harm also. Its just in addition. And yes, two harms is greater than one.
