The connotation behind the word "criminal" has progressed as society has too. 'Criminal' used to and still does refer to those who performed inexcusable acts of legally unethical sin.
Is there really no alternative justice system than crime and punishment? Seems that punishments are taken for granted as necessary and that we only debate on the reason it is accepted.
