Well having a felony conviction makes it harder to get a job of trust..thus some look for self employment, or jobs where background is not likely to be checked by employer. Felonies are the more serious crimes, petty theft(used to beup to $400) is a misdemeanor while grand theft is a felony. Most violent crimes except for simple assault & battery are felonies...Many times first offense of felony can be plea bargained to misdemeanor so,,,there might be more of a history...convicted felons can't vote unless their rights have been restored or they are democrats.
