I don't like the idea of hurting people.

People want purpose, they don't want good. They'll do anything to attain it and the history of the world is an ensemble of triumphs and failures to find it.

Part of the reason people refrain from committing crimes must surely be they were taught when children to refrain from committing crimes. Consequently, they feel a revulsion to committing crimes. The influence on our adult behavior of what we were taught as children is pretty well documented for many behaviors. I would not expect an aversion to committing crimes to be much less influenced by what we were taught as children.

What keeps people from committing crimes?
I can't speak for everyone but the thought of accidentally dropping the soap in a penitentiary shower is enough incentive for me.
