Well past essay due date now! :-)

Dan, a hint. There is no right answer to that kind of question. Your answer could be "hang them", "jail them", "re-educate them" or "give them a big bunch of flowers as a reward" and the teacher will not give you any credit. What you get credit for is for stating *your* opinion and backing it up with reasoned argument (and supplying relevant facts if you have them to hand, which gets you credit for doing research).

Asking Mudcat is *not* research, however. So you'll get no credit at all for asking here.
