Since I’m feeling actually charitable enough to talk on this app, you’re going to have to deal with me for a time. You’re welcome.

This city is different from what I’m used to. It’s interesting to note how things are handled overall. Not that I’m complaining, of course, a challenge is a challenge. If I don’t rise to it, then what fun is that?

What do you consider to be a crime? Call it a curiosity, if you want. It doesn’t matter to me. All I’m interested in is an answer.

Anything that hurts others, obviously.

[blackhand]

Even if it’s an accident?

[poisontippedcure]

Of course not! Everyone hurts people on accident.

[blackhand]

So a crime is something that hurts someone, but only if it's done on purpose. Am I understanding it correctly?

[ well... ]

...Taking another's life without proper judgement or cause.
Stealing something precious to someone, stealing from someone so they'll have difficulty to survive once it's gone...
Cheating, in a way that benefits you to a point of extreme excess, or where it might hurt someone or many...

...things like that.
I think some petty crime can be overlooked.
Like jaywalking, or stealing in order to eat...

Laws exist for a reason.

Someone with a grey morality. Interesting- I didn't think a place like this could hold people with that mindset. Kaisou's too bright, holds too much opportunity for someone to try and see how people really are.

There's very little in life that's truly black and white. Other than oreo cookies...

Sometimes you can objectively look at a committed crime, and decide that morally it was the right thing to do, regardless of how the law may state it.
Like how stealing food in order not to starve is correct.

...I would even say that certain heavier crimes are passable, if it's to protect people, or to stop someone from causing life-changing events that cannot be fixed.

[ how do you say 'im chill with murder if a bitch deserves to be murdered' without outright saying it... ]

[blackhand]

A lot of people would argue that almost any crime is wrong, regardless of the meaning or purpose behind it. More than likely, they've never had to see the other side of the argument, too caught up in what they have.

There's others who say the opposite, of course. I find it interesting to see others who don't immediately say everything is black and white.

the law will always point out and persecute people because of things written down by better-off people who have never known what it's like to truly struggle.

when the truth and reality is that many people break laws because they have little other choice; its either break one law or another, or its break a law or die. it's not a favorable position to be in.

life itself is grey, people who try to separate a gradient into pure colors are either so high class that they can't see the truth of the world...

...or they're terribly cruel and enjoy watching the masses struggle.

What do I consider a crime, or what do I think should be a crime? Because those are two very different things, and if it's the former it would be 'anything that's illegal.

[blackhand]

Either one, you won't hear me complain.

[That doesn't help, Garrett.]

[not_a_possum]

Well, since I already gave you what I consider to be a crime based on the actual legal definition, I guess I'll give you what I feel like should be a crime.

Disparaging opera and serving decaf coffee.

Also murder in some circumstances.
