As a starter a crime is a fact, a legal matter, and it is not an opinion. Some actions that were once considered criminals are no longer considered so as society evolves. Similarly, some previously legal actions may become illegal.
Greed, anger, jealousy, revenge, or pride are all reasons for committing a crime. Some people decide to commit a crime and meticulously plan every detail in order to maximize gain while minimizing risk. These people are making decisions about their behavior; some even believe that a life of crime is preferable to a regular job because it provides greater rewards, admiration, and excitement, at least until they are caught. Others experience an adrenaline rush after successfully committing a dangerous crime. Others commit crimes on the spur of the moment, out of rage or fear.
The goal of punishment is to deter people from committing crimes. Punishment is intended to make criminal behavior less appealing and more dangerous. Many people face significant hardship as a result of their imprisonment and loss of income. Another way to influence choice is to make crime more difficult or to limit the opportunities for crime. This can be as simple as improved lighting, locking bars on auto steering wheels, the presence of guard dogs, or as sophisticated as security systems and credit card photographs.
Some social factors have a particularly strong influence on a person’s ability to make decisions. Medications and
One such factor is alcoholism. The desire to commit crime in order to support a drug habit has a significant impact on the
decision-making procedure Drugs and alcohol both impair judgment and lower inhibitions (socially defined rules of behavior), giving a person more courage to commit a crime. Long prison sentences, for example, have little meaning when a person is high or drunk. Substance abuse, particularly with alcohol, leads to “stranger violence,” a crime in which the victim has no relationship with his or her attacker.
In summary, there are many kinds of criminals some are intentionally were some are attempted. The causes of crime are multifaceted. Poverty, parental neglect, low self-esteem, and alcohol and drug abuse are all factors that can contribute to people breaking the law. Because of their birth circumstances, some people are more likely to become criminals.
