I'm not sure if this was your implication (I may be reading too far into your relatively succinct comment), but I don't think most "criminals" do crimes because they explicitly want to break the law. I would imagine that there are about as many potential reasons for doing things that happen to be against the law as there are for doing things that don't happen to be against the law.

I'm not even all that sure what qualifies someone to be considered a "criminal." Is it simply breaking the law, which virtually everyone has done at some point? Is it getting caught committing a criminal act? Getting caught committing a felony-level offense? Is someone who smokes cannabis in Kansas (illegal) a criminal, but not someone who smokes cannabis across the state border with Colorado (legal)? What if the smoker from Kansas crosses the border into Colorado - are they no longer a criminal? What if the smoker from Colorado smoked cannabis before it became legal to so - did they stop being a criminal when cannabis was legalized? What if the smoker from Colorado walks across the border into Kansas - are they a criminal for having smoked cannabis in Colorado, given that doing so is illegal in Kansas? This list could continue, but it's probably already bordering on pedantic... Point being, if breaking the law is all it takes to be considered a criminal, aren't we all criminals?
