This is a poll to see how many of us have been on the other side of the law. I don't wish this to get bogged down in deep discussion about how sometimes crime is just a matter of opinion and how some laws are farcical but purely to see how many of us have actually been convicted of a criminal offense.

From the ages of 12-15, I ran afoul of the law quite frequently, so yes.

I've never been arrested for any of the things I did.

am have never been convicted of a crime,but had often done them.
at a younger age,am was unable to understand the concept of stealing,am understood that everything in hands was for self,eg,if family brought am into a shop,am would take things and use them,or walk out with them,would unknowingly steal off anywhere.
am was in late teenage or early adult years before learning the concept,and now strongly depend on the rule not to take anything that am not used to having,unless it is given.

All interesting stuff but I myself can honestly say i am one for playing by the rules because i always fear having to be caught and/or prosecuted and then always being labeled a criminal.

I believe very much in paying my way, being polite and never being in anyway aggressive to people who are just doing there job or minding their own business.

Yeah, I'm not so much a fan of violent crime. I try to be polite and nonaggressive. For me graffiti was just a creative outlet.

In terms of traffic tickets yes. But being convicted of an actual criminal charge such as a felony or misdemeanor no.

Errr, I never was put to court because it was considered too trivial, so, I guess that counts as no!
