By now most of you know the story of Mr Slater and his temper; In some sectors he has been immortalized for his actions as a folk hero, but let's be clear about this one: he is a criminal and should go to jail.

He abused a position of trust and placed a number of people in serious jeopardy of injury and even (in the case of ramp workers possible death).

I don't say this to dramatize the issue but to highlight that someone could have been killed by the explosive deployment of the chute.

His protestations to say he took care about deploying the chute show the action was premeditated and therefore deliberate in putting his co-workers (on the ramp) at huge risk.

Mr Slater in my book is a criminal and should be locked up in jail for his actions. I believe there are more than a few regulations and laws he contravened not least of which showed he could be classified as a domestic terrorist.

For once I agree with Donald Trump: http://content.usatoday.com/communities/entertainment/post/2010/08/donald-trump-we-should-stop-celebrating-steven-slater/1
