The reason why YOU (and almost everyone else apart from people born in coma) did illegal stuff is that laws became vast, complex and contradictory.

In addition to it the general public out of frustration with the stress of free market life is eager to punish, jail, bomb, burn, execute anyone it can. So we get the marvel of the modern world - the two million inmates prison industry which is growing robustly.

Here's a hint, try figuring out what's illegal.

Start with your income tax code and work your way down.

"Here's a hint, don't do illegal stuff."

Here's a hint: There are so many ridiculous laws on the books that the average person has no idea that an ordinary thing that he or she might do is illegal. That's the whole point of the article.

BTW, that bird feather that your kid picked up on his nature walk belongs to a red-shafted flicker, a migratory bird. Congratulations, your kid's a felon for violating the migratory bird act. Get it?
