Banishment used in a sentence

Banishment in a sentence as a noun

BTW this post was #7 on HN, and then the HN gods flagged it for banishment.

I think that banishment can either be done out of a desire to punish, or a desire to remove a threat.

The problem with vagueness is that the potential punishment for transgression is banishment from YC.

If I'm too broad in my banishment, eventually, I myself lose out, so there's a feedback mechanism somewhere in there.

* Cynical to suggest permanent "banishment" from the justice system.

* Permanent banishment from any kind of justice system work, even as far as being a janitor in an administration building.

While the occasional demonstration of witwill evoke no more than a scowl and shake of the head from the community, more regular use will draw a barrage of down votes and risk the possibility of banishment.

Is the purpose of banishment to protect the rest of the tribe from the offender, or is the purpose of banishment to punish the offender?The difference may seem academic, but I don't think the difference in attitude could manifest itself in how the banishment actually takes place.

In the absence of an official system of justice, people generally become much more careful around each other, because running afoul of someone may lead to a duel or give rise to a vendetta, and because, in the absence of jails, punishments tend become draconian, coming to include dispossession, banishment, and even death, which are all intended to deter and to neutralize rather than to punish.
