My favorite list of crimes:
Charges: Aggravated criminal sexual assault while armed with a weapon, aggravated criminal sexual abuse while armed with a weapon, attempted armed robbery with a firearm, armed robbery and being on park grounds after dark.

Being on park grounds? Isn't there a point in the charging phase where it doesn't matter that, say, the Hillside Strangler was driving with a broken tail light?

Also, one in four of those people are cockeyed. Why?

This would be one for the Teacher's Pet thread, if I could find it. Has it disappeared?

What amazes me is how few of them meet the bare minimal standards for fuckability.  Does the Chicago police department engage in a form of profiling that results in a disproportionate arrest rate for extremely ugly people?

You know, in the old days, having your photo taken was a big deal and people dressed for the occasion. I can't believe how little concern folks have for something that will may be cherished forever by their loved ones.

"Stacking" charges is as 'Merican as Lemon meringue (What-Ever that means).  Thus, motive be-coming a separate crime (Via "Hate Crime" legislation) as op-posed to a matter of "aggravation".  Man, I loves me the taste of pseudo-liberty!

I think hate crimes are qualitatively different than crimes of passion, profit, etc. This argument has been framed poorly by the left. The difference is in intent and number of victims, not unlike the difference between first-degree murder and manslaughter.

When you kill 2 people because they owe you money or whatever, your objective is to kill those two people, and the victims are the two dead and all their loved ones. When you lynch two people because they're black, you have the same objectives as before--to kill the two immediate victims--and to terrorize a much, much larger population. This is why we also draw a distinction between regular murder and terrorism. The penalties for, say, a lynching, should therefore be the penalty for murdering those two people plus the penalty for terrorizing a specifically and consciously targeted community.

For Taint...it's a great book.
