That modern pagans misuse the word is neither here nor there.

I know very well the meaning of the concept of outlaw, and you're wrong. It means someone who has done something that puts him or her outside the protection of society. It has had that meaning for well over a thousand years.

It's not a pleasant thing to call someone, but having seen some of the disgusting (and, in many cases sexist) abuse aimed at the woman in question, I'm not surprised she doesn't want to be polite.
