Interesting Definition of a Crime
 
A little girl with stage 4 cancer
cannot comprehend the pain,
all she knows is her daddy is there
and he takes her pain away;
her life returns and she feels joy again:
that is until her daddy is arrested
and taken away, for easing her pain.

I've heard about this thing and found it preposterous. I think a crime is anything that breaks the law, which is just a set of outlined rules. I guess cases like this are the ones that end up changing the law sometimes. Though, law is a tricky field I don't know much about. I mean legalese seems to contain brackets in parenthesis and then parenthesis in the brackets.
