First, the state should establish a “default 'mens rea,'” which means a crime would only occur if a person knowingly commits a crime or the Legislature puts it in the statute (this was adopted in Ohio).
True criminal behavior should be obvious.

True criminal behavior should be obvious. Yeah.
No felony should be the result of hair-splitting minutia.
