Honestly after trying adulthood and seeing what it means to function as an adult in this society, it feels like the whole world just views me as a product made to crumble.

They want to drown me in debt/hospital bills and put black marks all over my record. I was a great, straight A student growing up, too. Now I have an arrest record longer than anyone I know.

If you want to tear me apart so bad give me dignity in a quick death instead of trying to turn me into zombified cattle.

How is it biased? It offers a "yes" option, as well as a "no" option with every plausible reason why someone would vote no.

so "no, because i don't think stealing warrants death" isn't plausible?

really love your completely unbiased poll!

You only think that because yourself or someone close to you would be punished under such a law, so the poll covers your case.

The "yes" option isn't qualified with reasons, so it covers that situation too.

No one is directly harmed or deprived of anything by it, so yes. (Though it should still be illegal, but under civil law.)

Pretty hypocritical of TC to decide that victimless crimes should be excluded. But I guess he doesn't want to throw himself under the bus.

Victimless crimes shouldn't be crimes in the first place. Fix that and the topic title could just read "crimes". And yes, that includes victimless crimes that I have zero interest in engaging in.

Not really, because the majority of people who pirate stuff would have gone without if the pirate option wasn't available.

or maybe i just don't think everything except the crimes i like (""""'victimless"""" crimes) are on the same level as murder. but sure, do whatever suits your narrative

I only see two poll options:

> Yes, they should
> No, as a criminal or relative of one myself I am scared of such a proposal

Am I missing something here? There's either "yes" or "No because I or someone I know has committed a crime". What about just no?

Also what's your definition of a "victimless" crime?

There's no other reason to answer "no".

A crime that doesn't have a victim, such as posession of cannabis. You could've just grabbed a dictionary and looked up the word "victimless".

Well, yes, there is another reason to answer "No". If you don't believe so, I have to ask if you're trolling or if English is your native language, because there's a glaring flaw with that one sole answer.

Additionally, arguably not all possession of cannabis is a victimless crime - that would require a thorough investigation to determine the source of the cannabis.

I say kill all child rapists, rapists, and murderers, but there is no option on that shitty poll, so I'll just say no. Sorry everybody, but TC just let all these violent criminals go because he's inept at making a decent poll.

No, it wouldn't. There may be non-victimless crimes tied to gaining that posession, but the posession itself is still victimless. Same logic as how it's victimless (though in this case, not a crime, although one could argue that it should be inb4 someone takes that seriously) to posess an iPhone, but it isn't victimless (and is a crime) to steal one.

no because first of all not all crimes warrent death. and 2nd the death penalty is evil and wrong. not just for morality but because not everyone in prison is guilty. about 25% of all the people in prison are actually innocent. people get found out to be innocent all the time, years after conviction. you can't take back the death penalty so you better be DAMN SURE you got it right....
