Why should ex-criminals, EVEN petty criminals be denied employment after their time is served. I don’t know if you know this or not but a LOT of people that get out of jail want to do better with themselves, once they find out they can’t. They go back to crime to survive.

I would gladly hire an ex con to guard my home, or take care of my child, or safeguard my companies finances. They’ve paid their debt to society. Maybe they made one mistake. It shouldn’t haunt them for the rest of their lives.

Like I said, it’s your choice; YOU hire that person.

It’s also MY choice; I WON’T hire that person.

You probably are in favor of taking my power to choose away from me, but, so far, it’s still a free country!

If you want to be a fool that’s your choice - but for God’s sake don’t involve your child. I pray you don’t have children and that you were just using the idea as part of your argument... Oh, and that ‘oh so nice’ prince from Nigeria who needs a small amount of cash... he’s probably scamming you.
