Putting offenders on the no-fly list doesn't make sense, because it violates people's right to move freely.

However, severe penalties make complete sense. I mean like a $50,000 civil fine plus cost of fuel plus cost of hotels for all passengers for a flight that has to make a diversion. Plus criminal penalties if injuries or assault are involved.

There’s no right to move about the country freely by airplane.

You might feel different if you happen to be on the no fly list

Sounds like the same thing to me, unless you're wealthy. The no-fly list seems a little less discriminatory in that regard.

And if people wanted to, they could simply charter their own planes if they are put on a national no-fly list.
