On every mornings, we can hear about lots of news related to various crimes which threaten the peace of the society. It is definitely obvious that we should stand against various kinds of crimes, since by doing so, we could make our society more stable. Then, what can be the first step to deal with the crimes well? Since the ways to oppose crimes are decided depending on the kind of them, classifying them should be the first step. Even though there are varied classification methods to assort crimes, the most widespread method is to classify them roughly according to whether it is violent crime or intellectual property crime.
Comparing to intellectual property crime, violent crime could be more serious because of possibility to hurt people physically. For example, murder, kidnapping, threatening, robbery, arson, rape, and assault, which are included in a violent crime have lots of effect on health of victim not only physically, but also mentally.
On the other hand, intellectual property crime have less direct effect on health of victim. It is because this kind of crimes is usually related to property as you can guess from its name. It includes fraud, plagiarism, copyright infringement, and hacking. Even though it cannot hurt people directly, it can cause serious confusion in societies by making victims frustrated. Also, it is becoming serious problem because with developed information technology, this kind of crime happens more frequently than ever.
These two kinds of crimes have to be dealt with different ways because two of them have different purposes of crime and different effects on victims. Therefore, a profound discussion is needed to find out the right method to cope with them. With this, we could reduce the crime and make the world more peaceful.
