Is it a crime to plan a crime but not commit the crime?

In: Crime [Edit categories]

Answer:

yes

Whether the created crime is deemed worthy of being punishable as an actual crime is probably more based on the viewpoint of he who created it. In other words, you decide with the help or lack of a conscience. If you have a clear mind for thinking it, then no worries; you're hands are clean, as long as no one else knows about it. ;) We are our own decider of the evils in this world with all things considered. So long as we have the freedom of choice. One thing to think about though...you chose to not commit the crime, so does that make you innocent?? Or does it still condemn you as a criminal based on your criminal mind?? muwahahahaa
