    Nice to meet you! I am interested in the use of electromagnetic waves for crime and how to counteract it, although I am unsure whether it exists or not. I joined to pinpoint the factors that determine whether it exists or not, using a physical basis instead of making ambiguous judgments. I...

    Should reading your wife's e-mail be a crime?

    He shouldn't have been going through his wife's e-mail, but in my opinion this should be more of a moral problem than a criminal problem. In other words, he was in the wrong, but he shouldn't go to jail or go to court over something so stupid.

    Do Laws Deter Crime? Education vs Fear

    Laws only seem to go so far in getting people not to commit crimes against each other. I believe it has already been studied and established that the role of punishment to make an example as prevention is negligible. People who do not commit crimes because of the law are people living in fear...

    I didn't see this on the internet yet, but there was just a story on CNN about kids in trouble, in New York, who are given the option to do Shakespearian theater instead of time in jail [maybe community service?]. I didn't know there was a difference. :biggrin:
