If all Americans committed to office work, the number of felonies would drop to zero. Remote workers have caused the rise in crime. *farts*

There's absolutely a kernel of truth when someone says there's too much criminalization because things like taking a bald eagle feather is at best a misdemeanor and could be a felony under the right circumstances. The answer is to stop making these things crimes and making them civil penalties, not to punt it "back to the states" to make them state felonies and not federal felonies? It's so loving stupid.

Its a felony to take an eagle feather, yet theres no law that says you cant gently caress an eagle. Case closed.

Bald eagles were endangered for a long time, I think partly because people liked to hunt them for their feathers. So that law kinda makes sense, although I don't know how widely it gets enforced anymore.

yeah I used to work at a bird of prey rescue and a big reason why they enacted those laws about (current and formerly) endangered bird feathers is because about 95% of the time, in order to obtain one, you had to do something really loving illegal - as in, actively loving with endangered species one of our peregrines was human imprinted at the time of hatching back in the DDT era, he was totally hosed up (and also one of the top sperm donors for the program that got them off the endangered list eventually, cuz he was easy to deal with in that regard)

Yeah, but actually that is the problem, civil penalties are incredibly punitive to people that don't have much money and trivial to even the upper-middle class.

He's absolutely right, but that's because there's a few outliers doing millions of felonies a day and that raises the average up.

So that law kinda makes sense, although I don't know how widely it gets enforced anymore. It was Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) abuse that caused their laid eggs to have unusually brittle shells leading to Bald Eagles becoming endangered. Keep in mind Bald Eagles are trash eating scavenger assholes so they are the perfect symbol of the USA. Banning DDT and restoring the species is one of the few, "Hey, humans did a good!" stories of the last few decades.

I knew Zach de la Rocha in elementary school, we found an eagle feather at recess and I shoved it in my peehole and got arrested. He wrote the song "Freedom" about it.

Note that the particular law I'm citing is the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, so if you gently caress around with a Canada Goose, which is by no means endangered at all, that's a felony.

Eh, that's a little different because they were deliberately going for a slightly off world in that movie. Like all bills were in denominations of three. Banksy once talked (IIRC in Exit Through the Gift Shop) about the time his team wanted to do a gimmick at a festival where they would distribute fake money but realized that it was too easy to mistake for real and scrapped it.

MrQwerty posted:Saving peregrines from extinction was way cooler than saving bald eagles from extinction, which was also cool You're right, peregrine falcons are awesome. Bald Eagles eat poo poo on the side of the road, but peregrines? They smack the gently caress out of pigeons at 180+ MPH and come back around to catch them. Their eyes and nostrils are designed to deal with those speeds. Maybe ospreys are more awesome. Maybe.
