Matt Taibbi: When the Death Penalty, or More, is Justified

I was delighted by the tale of the woman who was arrested for talking for 16 hours in an Amtrak  quiet car.  I travel on Amtrak a lot and have long believed that willful violators of quiet car protocol should be subject to the death penalty. In fact I believe each train should be outfitted with a special car full of half-starved wolverines and wild boars, into which quiet-car cell phone talkers should be thrown. I'm hoping the Supreme Court takes up this issue in the future.  [blog]
