Why isn't breaking a heart considered a crime ?

Firstly love is not  law nor can be governed by law, love is somebody that calls you when they dont have to. We all have a reality on what "we think" love should "look" like and the same with life, however both do not "look" a particular way and we think they should "look" "our way". The world is full of upset people attached to the world running "their way" also, instead of learning to be ok with the way it is, when they actually shift to this reality they will find that the world shifts around them.\n\nGoing back to "love" , who told you it should look a particular way? i.e your way? is it any wonder the world is full of disillusioned virgins attached to their Walt Disney fairy story coming true, then end up in lonelyness attached to their subconsciouss lists of what Mr Right or their Fairy Princess "should  "look" like fantasy".\n\nSince when was another person responsible for breaking your fantasty? lets face it, it, was exclusive to you, when you chose to think it would look your way. Trouble is you got to attached and tried to manipulate it to fit your "list" of pictures and now you wonder why your alone.\n\nThe best way to destroy relationship is be attached to being right, given that you do nothing with righteoussness except destroy realtionship, there is no formula more successful.\n\nNobody is responsible for your unfulfilled expectations except yourself, equally so for your thwarted intentions or the conversations you never completed, resulting in you causing your own upset and living in a jungle of incompletions.\n\nWomen choose men, if you think they don't (macho ego) try sleeping with a woman without their permission ( it's called rape),  men have second choice. Women will leave a man for one of three reasons 1. Hes no good in bed, 2. He's a bad provider or 3. He doesnt stimulate her mentally, if you don't believe me ask any woman, and there are more reasons also.\n\nSecondly, if your upset, clearly your abdicating responsibility for you part in it, what did you do to deliberatly sabotage it? at some point you chose to check out spiritually and remain in it physically until there were enough reasons and jusifications to invalidate it,then either leave or drive her away.\n\nSo stop playing the wounded wimp, women cant stand that because their archtypical reality is built on their dads like yours is on your mums for what you want from a partner. whom were biggerer, betterer, cleverer, smarterer,nicer,prettier, romaticure, ect ect and you chose yours as she did hers from those qualities if they were there or not.\n\nWho told you love was supposed to last forever anyway? (Walt Disney?) what if once we got all the growth we could we moved on? If you come from this condition and refer to the above you may actually have a chance of having a successful realtionship.\n\nYou cannot have anybody or anyone from a condition of desperation as desperation is needy and nobody wants needy.\n\nSo ask yourself what was your part in it! and stop blaming others for your interpretation of what they said or did when you clearly set yourself up with the way you thought it should "look".\n\nMaybe now your starting to get the meaning of the word "Responsibility"\n\nOf course it was just another object lesson to what you dont want in your life, so get the lesson and move on, and if you don't you'll just get the lesson until you get the lesson\n\nLife is pain and pain is not letting go and moving with the transition of what is!\n\nEnjoy, its all a game anyway and its not about winning it either it's about playing it!\n\nP.s  I hope this gives you a little more clarity in terms of who your being in relationships!\n\nP.P.s Nobody controls anybodys life or has a contact on it, this is validated by divorce, a marriage is a contract of no choice to be in the realtionship and hence the mind rebels eve

The answer is yes.  To commit a crime, two separate elements must be met.  First, the actus reus - or act.  You must do something that is prohibited.  Damaging someone's property is illegal (if nothing else it is a trespass).  Second, is the mens rea, or the guilty mind.  Every crime carries with it a different level of intent needed in order to be guilty.  For example for capital murder, the level of intent required is very high.  The murderer must have premeditated the crime and intended to cause the death of his victim.  For damaging someone's property, it is likely enough that you were simply negligent.  Anything more, such as intentionally damaging the property would also suffice.  So from your example, and assuming in the hypothetical that you intended, or at least were negligent in causing the damage then you have committed a crime.  It is absolutely irrevelevant whether anyone saw you do it.  Of course if there is no proof, then it's difficult to convict you - but that's not the question.  Did you commit a crime?  Absolutely.

hate crimes are not about the thought so much as they are about the purpose, and thus, no--someone shouting something out a window is not illegal. (verbal assault is not considered a crime, unless it is repeated harassment.) (if your boss or co-worker does this, however, then it is a creation of a hostile work environment, and is punishable, if the employer does not handle it satisfactorily. not a hate crime, though.) \n\nif someone is killed or physically assaulted specifically because of their race, especially by a stranger, then there is a larger intimidation and fear purpose to the crime. it is meant to scare the crap out of others who fit the description of the victim--ex: lynching. \n\nthe crime is different because it is not a crime of passion or a crime of opportunity--it is a crime against society in that it is attempting to intimidate and instill fear in a larger population.

b/c if you never love and only hate then nobody can break your heart. hate is not and never will be a stronger word than love, it only seems this way b/c it has a negitive effect on a person and hurts were as love makes you feel good about yourself.

You know of course that James Bond is not a real person.If a person like James Bond killed people in the service of his country or some other line of duty, that is not considered murder.  I guess the same could be said for sleeping with the women, but I am not sure of that because I am sure he takes great pleasure from it.

I don't believe it should be.  But technically yes.  If you don't believe me, go ask the guy in this article who went to jail for it.\n\nhttp://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1834967,00.asp

It would be a sin if I was religious, which i'm not. Anyway, I wouldn't care, because I wasn't the direct cause of the "murder". If I unknowingly caused a chain of events leading to a "death", it would be considered an accident, not murder. It's all about intentions.

Because they are two different things -- adultery may be against he law (although no state punishes the act) but the state will still establish divorce procedures (which is what "no fault" means -- it doesn't mean that nobody is to blame for anything) which allow parties to get divorced without officially assigning blame for the failed marriage.\n\nBesides, I can well imagine a case where, for example, a wife eventually has a brief affair after living for years with a distant and uncaring husband -- is the person who had the affair more at fault?  I don't think we need the state to decide that for the parties.

To constitute the crime of bank robbery, three ingredients are necessary: \n\nFirst, a felonious intent, or animua furandi; \nsecondly, some degree of violence, or putting in fear; \nthirdly, a taking from a person to another. \n\nHere if somebody stole a pen then two ingredients may be fulfilled 1.intention 2. taking from the person so without the third element i.e. violence and putting the other person in fear, this act would not be classed as a "Bank Robbery". But if that pen is taken with some violence and fear then even a pen stoling would constitute a "Bank Robbery"

If the crime is committed because they are gay then yes it's a hate crime. If the crime is committed with no consideration given to victims sexuality then it's not a hate crime eg. if a bank is robbed and the teller is gay or lesbian.

No...a broken heart is based on emotions not on a lifeline...

It sounds like the definition for statutory rape, which is what you're asking about in the second part of the question.  I believe crossing state lines makes it a federal crime.  ooooOOOOhhhh....give us the juicy details, please!

Very good questions.  Unfortunately, there is not clear cut answer.  It depends on the heart of the person.  So, on your first question, does rape constitute abortion...no it doesn't.  However, only He knows the situation of the girl, there may be good reasons for it...we cannot judge.  \nThe second question, if a person smokes etc...is it suicide.  No it isn't, and yes it can be.  If they know better, keep doing it and just don't care, then yes it may be considered suicide, however, if they don't know any better...(think of all those kids in Asia and no one teaches them any better...that can go for a lot of other countries as well) they have no knowledge that what they are doing is harmful to themselves.\nSpare the rod, spoil the child, is not gospel.  It does not mean we should physically punish our children, but it does mean we need to discipline them.\nDeath penalty is a tough one.  Eye for an eye is the law of Moses.  Christ taught a higher law on the sermon on the mount.  However, there is something wrong with the idea of a killer sitting in prison living off the tax money of others...I do believe in the death penalty in certain cases, but it really is hard to judge.  Good thing in the end, we won't have to...God will know our hearts and judge us accordingly.

b/c its a taboo subject.  its a private topic and act that is between 2 consenting, loving adults usually after taking vows of commitment.\n\nIt's not generally something for the public to informed about, hence trepitation in discussing it...perhaps on not wanting judgement cast on oneself.

No, but I wish they did, it's a crime to prevent two people in love from getting married.

It is a crime. Though maybe not as serious as mistreating a human, it's still bad if someone will intentionally hurt a basically defenseless animal. These ppl are the ones who often hurt people next.\n*In China dogs and cats can be considered food.*

No, because there's laws against a criminal earning money from their crimes.  If one writes a book and sells it, the money goes to the vitims of his crimes, and the rest to victims advocacy groups.
