Over the years I have observed crime through the news. To my surprise, there seems to be a lack of open resources to investigate the reasons for crimes in our society. Therefore, I have decided to put together a list of why I think crimes happen or the fundamentals of criminal behaviors. I will call this the SRC-List which stands for Stan's Reasons for Crime-List. It's an extensive list and may require deeper research into psychology, nutrition, and other subjects to fully understand certain elements. Nevertheless, I will add this list and hope that perhaps more people can build off these elements and hopefully build solutions to help prevent crime in the future. If any more ideas come to mind, I'll continue to add them to the list. So far here are my 35 reasons why I think crimes exists in the modern world.
Stan's list for the reasons for crime:
1 (child dev) Bad parents (a major contribution to bad children. Parents always immaturely fighting. Children copy parental behaviors. Children have a need to feel the acceptance, care, and attention from parents)
2 (child dev) Bad environment
3 (child dev) Brain functionality (brain issues)
4 (child dev) Neglect (I think leads to a desire for endless attention)
5 (child dev) Abuse (one issue is that a parents displaying violence could normalize the idea of violence for children. This leads to sociopathic, psychopathic, and narcissistic behaviors where individuals build a hard shell over their vulnerabilities, hide their vulnerabilities, and to build a greater image and status over others. Depending on the abuse can lead to moraless behaviors)
6 (child dev) Abandonment
7 (child dev) Trauma (sometimes leads to isolation, introversion, or moraless behaviors)
8 (child dev) Lack of stability in a household.
9 (child dev) Parental guidance (teaching right from wrong, morality, and meaning and reasoning for things; proper discipline and a child knowing the reason for being disciplined)
10 (child dev) Learning from gender differences (and deconstruction of fantasy or negative personal interpretations regarding genders to develop functional relationships)
11 Drugs and substance abuse (alcoholism; decay of frontal lobe, cognition, and reasoning. Drugs are the greatest contribution to crime that I am aware of.)
12 Normalization of crime and abuse in one's environment. Moral decay can lead to more darker possibilities. Bad policies enable those who want to take advantage for doing more bad things, possibly for reputation and status.
13 Influences from war (strict discipline, military culture and conditioning influencing family culture. Militant coping with traumas)
14 (teen delinquency) A response (rebelling) from poor behaving, illogical, inconsistent, or irrational parents. Perhaps a response from culture, environment, or lack of real understanding of the real world, experience, and influence from the world in their thoughts. This leads as a gateway to rebellion and delinquency which could continue to more negative behaviors later on.
15 Malnourishment
16 Poor water quality
17 Poor food quality from lack of nutrients in the soil.
18 Influences from medications, vaccinations, and medical abuse.
19 Starvation (lack of food which also decays mental health and ability to reason and be rational)
20 Eating too much salt in foods or the use of bad and unnatural sugars in food such as: unnatural and artificial sugars, aspartame, alcohol sugars, and sugars with BPH. Sugars affect glucose, glucosamine, or glycol levels which affect organs and cause it to build fat and also affect other health conditions.
21 Brain functionality, brain damage, brain issues (brain chemical imbalance), and mental illnesses can also play a role (as common issue is people having voices in their head possibly from an enlarged pineal gland or hypothalamus. Perhaps it's possible to condition or medicate the voices in their heads).
22 Poor economic environments or places with no resources. This could cause desperation.
23 Lack of purpose, goals, and meaning from the lack of life experiences(skills), awareness, and knowledge of the real world and the world outside of culture. Lack of exercise, being part of a community(local or interest-group community), and self-development and personal planning and healthy risks and experimentation.
24 Lack of personal guidance, self-improvement, and having positive examples or role models.
25 Lack of emotional intelligence with controlling one's anger or jealousy. Lack of self-reasoning and reflection (not knowing where their anger comes from and how they can control it).
26 Being a victim of violence, crime, and intimidation can also possibly negatively influence an individual; this perhaps could include becoming victim of an abuse from authority. Being in an environment that normalizes crime, violence, and living in fear (fear creates submission or adoption to circumstance).
27 Building status, image, and reputation for intimidation value to protect oneself, shield their vulnerabilities, and influence others.
28 The result of culture and negative culture (especially to be accepted or to fit in socially). Culture plays a large role in society. Negative cultures can ruin a society, especially with iconic figures being role models.
29 The result of isolation and social rejection (As the saying goes, a rejected member will burn a village to the ground so that they can feel its warmth).
30 If one lives in a state of injustice or perceived injustice. They might take things into their own hands.
31 The development of bad habits, prolonged bad habits, and bad habits justified in one's thoughts which can lead to greater bad habits or self-harm or the harm of others. I think this could fall more under mental illness or perhaps the development of mental illness. This can also be seen in psychopathic behaviors where they define their own realities, justifiabilities, ideological reasonings, and interpretations base on their level of thinking, feelings, and observations.
32 The conditioning of ideologies and leaders and the belief of justifiable irrational behaviors. This can also be the conditioning of victimhood-base ideologies and irrational-tribal ideologies(cults).
33 The result of cognitive dissonance where one has not matured mentally and learned to critically think, reason, and build an authentic relationship with themselves and reflect on their actions and the quality of their decisions and the consequences of their decisions and actions. One's level of intelligence plays a role in this as a person with low IQ can base their decisions and action on an individual of slightly higher intelligence yet still incapable to be intelligent enough to obtain critical thinking levels which is needed for accurate and effective solutions and answers (an individual who is a nincompoop). I also think a world that is not based in reality and logic requires a supplement for logic which can open an individual to believe any form of ideology and irrational behavior.
34 The normalization of corruption where one becomes corrupt to protect or gain for themselves. Corruption alters the mind and personal beliefs of an individual in many ways. It opens the mindset to see what else one can get away with and to feel a sense of superiority over others because of one's access to resources.
35 Perhaps lack of religious values or methods of learning ethical, moral, or group-valued or group-accepted systems.
