The problem is not hunger, because hunger is a natural thing, if you stay a day without been hungry then you should not there's something wrong with your body system,
The problem is been hungry and you can't afford food for yourself, that's where comes the problem, and what causes this situation is that term (poverty) and the process of been poor is caused by lack of job in the society.
But I don't see hunger as a reason why people engage in crime, because I know of so many people that can afford food for themselves but yet they commit crimes on daily basis, so to me hunger is not a reason why someone should engage in crime, cause if you are caught, you will be punished for it and hunger won't be accepted as your excuse..
Yes I know the country is hard, no jobs, insecurities, bad governance, but I will simply advice, if you are hungry, look for a mini job you can do to provide food for yourself, or better still ask people on the street for help, don't engage in crimes because you are hungry else you will be dealt with thoroughly....

There are two sides to every coin, including hunger and rage. Hunger frequently causes insecurity. A person who has enough to eat for himself and his family would prefer to consider rational ways to better both his life and the lives of people around him than to consider engaging in any illegal activity that will increase their level of insecurity.
Similar to how every man wakes up in the morning and considers what the family will eat, the government of every community or nation should put the welfare of its people first. A man who is starving will do whatever "illegal" to survive.

Quote
No man was ever more than about nine meals away from crime or suicide. (Eric Sevareid)
And it's not only lack of food. It can be fear of lack of food for anyone who has been ever really hungry and poor. Or for a rich people who don't know how they could handle not being able to afford something they are used to, like food, housing, paying debts or lifestyle in general. People are often are miser when they is afraid of losing something, and generous when they see other persons losing something if they are able to feel sympathy and empathy.

It is true that we're like in the wild looking to survive and that's how we're dealing with our daily lives. But it's a different survivability for those that are actually experiencing it not just ones but almost everyday of their lives.
In some cases, you are allowed to do the things that have less evil because when you are suffering from severe hunger, it means you are about to die, and to make your life easier, you can eat some grasses instead of quickly killing people. I believe there was a time when a plane crashed in the middle of the snowy continent and some of the passengers are dead but some has survive the impact, in order for the survivor to prolong their lives until the rescuer comes, they ate those people that are dead instead of killing the other survivors. There are always some options but most people don't really want to choose the hard way instead they forget they are human and they commit heinous crimes.
