If these jokers knew they would be fined thousands of dollars or, if convicted of a felony, spend quality time in prison, they might be deterred.
I wonder why that is not reported more. All they need to do is append the following after reporting the passenger was arrested upon landing:
"Possible penalties for Doofus's actions include . . ." or "Doofus could face up to X # of months/years or a fine up to $X."
I think more vigorous reporting on possible penalties might even get these clowns' attention and would significantly reduce such incidents.
What do you think?

We need to wake people out of their dreams based on ideology or sense of self importance, etc.
Fox News only exacerbates this.
