I do wonder, what, exactly they mean by non-violent crimes. It's early in the morning and my brain isn't quite up to snuff yet, but all I can think of are vandalism, copyright violation, and stealing...?

    Technically children do have to pay taxes.

      Simply "not paying" taxes gets you a bill, not jail time. It's hard work to do the kind of evasion that gets jail time.

It would include drug crimes as well. I think you can take the words at face value (with an implied 'physically' modifying 'violent'), except that crimes involving only the threat of violence may count as violent crimes.
