I don't particularly think that the $500 fine or cancellation of Global Entry are overkill. And that's not my point.
My point is that this is a world in which countries as varied as China, Turkey, India, Egypt, Hungary, Poland, and the United States seem to have moved well past flirting with fascism and are now enthusiastically kissing fascism on the lips. And what I'm reading on here, from you and others, first with the United passenger fiasco in Chicago and again with this woman, in your seeming delight in her punishment, is hard to interpret any way other than approval of of an authoritarian take on life. I didn't much like that movie in the original German, and I don't like it much now either; I find authoritarianism personally offensive.
