Wrong. I choose to interpret the law as an effort to promote public safety. Considering that there is no safety issue in cautiously proceeding through an empty intersection's stop sign, I am respecting the intent and spirit of the law, but not the letter of it. Furthermore, as others have already stated, law enforcement doesn't care about these "criminal acts" because they don't present anything close to a safety problem, just as most jaywalkers and motorists speeding don't present a problem.
