I don't think your analogy applies here. I'd liken the situation more to stealing a CD from a record store. The CD's are easily replaced, but you were caught and now you're serving life in prison.

Even though we know that stealing is wrong, would you feel bad for the record store?

I'm saying she's borderline mentally ill, perceiving threats that don't exist from offense she takes from immature comments.
