On paper, I'd be a felon for serious offences on at least 4 episodes. If the law was followed to the letter, and if somebody nosy had enough access and time to inspect the past 15 years of my life, I'd be serving at least two life sentences. The smallest offence is carrying a hunter's knife in my car: that's a 3rd degree felony as I'd discovered recently. In practice, though, if the law was followed to the letter, 90% of males would be serving life right after high school for reasons I probably don't need to explain.

>for reasons I probably don't need to explain.

I'm clueless. What would lead to serving life?

[czynskee]

I think they're implying statutory rape.

[abiogenesis]

I think they mean that smaller things such as carrying a hunter knife may add up to approximately two life sentences.

[chasontherobot]

maybe, but why would that apply to only males?

[Meph504]

Where do you live that it is a felony to have a hunting knife in your car, and also where felony's have degrees?

[ry454]

Not only felonies have degrees here, they have classes and graduate eventually.

[selimthegrim]

Even predicate ones? (I kid)
