However, the guy was still arrested and charged with the same crime as if he were brandishing a real gun.
He was only kidding, but how were we supposed to know that, and what if he only said it was a joke just because it turned out badly for him?
Another point. You have a right to travel freely through this country from state to state...however you do not have the right to do it via airplane, or car of that matter.
Flying in a plane and getting across country in a matter of hours is a privilege, just like driving.
This girl should lose that privilege, along with spend a bit of time in jail.

Your situation is different. The person who had the toy gun passed it off as being real. He wanted you to think it was and you did. And thus he was arrested, etc.
This girl did not threaten to detonate the shirt or give any hint that it would be possible to do so. No one in their right mind thought this was actually a bomb. This is even demonstrated by the fact that they didn't evacuate anyone or cancel any flights. If they really thought someone was walking around the airport with a bomb on their shirt, the whole damn place would have been locked down tighter than a virgin's twat.
