And let's go back to the initial post. You say "The punishments they have for minor crimes are starting to get out of control."
Wearing a feather on one's graduation cap is nowhere in the US a crime.
She showed great disrespect given that she requested a ruling and was denied, then did it anyway. Better to either not ask, or abide by the ruling, no matter how asinine it is.
The only crime I saw in the original article posted is the possible underage drinking, at this point only an allegation, I believe.
We cannot and must not allow those in power to set rules based on arbitrary criteria or on making it "easier" for the powerful to have things their way.
