> a junkie drowning a puppy while shoplifting a tv that is what i was talking about. i have the idea of something like "banditry", a crime against strangers or stranger property that disproportionally erodes society. that is not the same as a husband hitting a wife, or even serious cases of abuse and even murder within a household or a friend circle. whatever crimes stop you from walking the street are the most serious form of crime; they lower birth rate by stopping you from having public space to have a child, deter investment in the local area, increase costs of business operations, and so on.   > t robert maxwell empties your pension fund that would be banditry. > your daughter's boyfriend rapes that would be less bad to society if a stranger were to rape her at random. all it would take for her to escape the trauma is leave 1 person; the public being hazardous means something else entirely.
