30 years is a bit long, but they should definitely receive a stiff penalty...there's no excuse for doing something like this. No "it was a joke" or "I just was having some fun" or even "How can they possibly do this to me, for re-tweeting a message?"

It's like yelling "Fire" in a crowded place...you can and will be charged for what you say and what follows from that. I don't see this as being any different.
