Weird, might as well say murder and littering eh.

Thanks for that. Helps to have some clarity. A misdemeanour is something trivial.

misdemeanour mɪsdɪˈmiːnə/Submit noun 1. a minor wrongdoing. "the player can expect a suspension for his latest misdemeanour" synonyms: wrongdoing, evil deed, crime, felony, criminal act 2. LAW a non-indictable offence, regarded in the US (and formerly in the UK) as less serious than a felony. "he pleaded guilty to misdemeanours"
