You're confused about criminal and civil code, making a mistake in such as you claim is a civil, not criminal violation.

So don't make up stories about things you don't understand because you need to be a crybaby on the internet.

You’re right on civil vs criminal, I did confuse those two. I was using the definition of criminal describing an offense against the law. Now I know, thanks for pointing that out!
