Whats A Crime?

This was a crime!!

In general a crime is in a broad sense an act that violates a political or moral law of any one person or social grouping.

In the narrow sense, a crime is a violation of criminal law; in many nations, there are criminal standards of bad behaviour. However, not all violations of the law are considered crimes, for example most traffic violations or breaches of contract.

In many languages, "crime" means "felony" in English, and are not to be mistaken.
