but if you make a youtube stunt that hurts nobody you can get 20 years in prison and the FAA acts like you besmirched the stellar reputation of the aviation industry.
He did something wrong, he might go to prison. Does any other actions from others change what he did? No.
And tbh hindsight is easy. Of course no one was hurt of 'the guy who purposely crashed a fucking airplane in some more remote area for clicks'.
Like wtf how sick is this?
Why do you even defend such a shitty thing?
Every executive and manager in the hierarchy of responsibility should be seeing that jail time, if not even more.
I don't think the person you're replying to thinks that this youtuber should have gotten off scott free, but that the double standard is an indictment of the industry and regulation agencies at large.
