Yeah, it's not very wise to tweet terrorist threats to an airline on Twitter. The Dutch girl ended up being arrested for this.

But thus do I counsel you, my friends: distrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful!
-Friedrich Nietzsche
@Starkers: your first wife was a facsimile? @everyone: Seriously, though, most criminal justice systems in Western nations are still vacillating between two very distinct intended outcomes of 'justice.' De week want/seek punishment or rehabilitation. Which do we want? Do we want to punish the offender, or do we want to remold the offender into a viable member of civil society? Both goals are intermixed together in most Western systems. And its a dicey mix, IMHO.
I don't want punishment or rehabilitation, I want retribution
I had to delete my comment, I didn't want it to be misconstrued. I'll just leave it at that.
Yup, she was a facsimilie of a woman, a fake; not genuine; an imposter; a throwback to something Dark-Ages and evil; a warted crone with a UI so hideous it'd scare Satan himself. Orright, maybe not quite that bad, but I have no good memories of her cos all the bad ones, of which there are many, supercede and outweigh them to the point where they simply don't exist.
Anyway, enough about her... I haven't eaten dinner yet.
In this case, does this mean she should have to watch all of Duck Dynasty followed by every Toby Keith album in one sitting as her punishment?
Sounds more like a reward - given the typical proclivities of the hoi poli. (masses)
