   From Merriam-Webster Online:   
      
   Main Entry:   
   crime   
      
   Function:   
   noun   
      
   Etymology:   
   Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin crimen accusation,   
   reproach, crime; probably akin to Latin cernere to sift, determine   
      
   Date:   
   14th century   
      
   1: an act or the commission of an act that is forbidden or the omission   
   of a duty that is commanded by a public law and that makes the offender   
   liable to punishment by that law; especially : a gross violation of law   
      
   2: a grave offense especially against morality   
      
   3: criminal activity    
      
   4: something reprehensible, foolish, or disgraceful    
      
   I site definitions 2 and 4 to my previous stance. I site Wildstars   
   track record to your stance.   
      
   And again, I reiterate.
