Natural Crime and Legal Crime

excon · Aug 4, 2007, 11:08 AM

Hello again, ya:

I don't know if I have 600 words for you, but I certainly have an opinion.

Nobody would argue that killing, raping, stealing and beating people up are natural crimes. Everybody knows that, even little kids. That's why their called natural. But if something is happening around you that doesn't look like a crime, it probably isn't. It's a "legal" crime. That's a crime made up by somebody who has a gripe. Then they manage to get a lot of their buddies together to pass a law and hire some cops to enforce it. But, that doesn't turn it into a "natural" crime, even though they manage to convince a lot of people that it is.

Some of the things we engage in that wouldn't be crimes if it weren't for those kinds of people are prostitution, drug use and crossing an imaginary line in the sand to get a job. There are certainly others, but those are the MOST troubling.
