I don't understand. What are you refering to?

  > What are you refering to? Normal bounty hunters. I’m asking why this feels different. (Civil v criminal doesn’t seem to be meaningful. Maybe it’s the bond?)

    Is there such a thing as "normal bounty hunter hunting petty criminals"? I have doubts about "normal bounty hunter" even without "petty criminal" part added to it.

      Heck, they even make TV shows about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_the_Bounty_Hunter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_the_Bounty_Hunter !

        They also have a tv show dedicated to selling off storage units that are unpaid, but my friend whose family owns a large chain of storage units has told me that it’s basically fake. (He said usually the unpaid units are filled with something worthless and on the off chance they’re not, it’s donated to charity) So now I question all these shows a bit.

    Does that still happen. I thought that was only in cowboy films.

      The US is surprisingly archaic. It’s a thing in some places.
