CRIME

1. the action of the insane or the action of attempting seizure of product without support. Example: robbers who do not support a community seek to rob from it supporting funds. (HCO PL 25 Mar 71) Crime (Def. 1) 2. stems totally and entirely from lack of belonging and understanding that to which one belongs. The criminal or juvenile gang is a substitute for society. It is an outlaw pack at the throat of that which forced it not to belong. (HCO PL 16 Sept 70) 3. crime is directly the result of a lack of hat and training on the hat. (FO 2580) 4. action without inspection. (SH Spec 90, 6112CO7) 5. crime might be defined as the reduction of the survival level along any one of the eight dynamics. (SOS, Bk. 2, p. 33) 6. there are two types of crime. There's the crime of commission and the crimes of omission and in modern society they pay very little attention to the crimes of omission. The penalty is usually awarded to a person really for two reasons: one is for being there and the other for communicating. Now that is the normal penalty in this society. If you want to reduce any crime down, it was basically composed of those two elements: being there and communicating. But there are crimes of not being there and not communicating, too. The society doesn't pay much attention to these. (SHS Dec 73 6608CO2)
