Grouse 1576 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 NY letting thousands of felons out early, prior to "paying their debt to society" isn't going to make their ability to find jobs better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Culvercreek hunt club 9663 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 He doesnt have to prove anything. After serving his time his debt to society is paid off,that is the idea behind the jailtime,is it not? He should not be discriminated against because of his bad choices years ago. Wrong. So if you own a business and he did time for embezzlement and applied for an accounting of CFO job. You hiring him? NFW and if you say yes you’re a liar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think northcountryman was referring to a job anywhere,walmart etc... Yeah , I was . I agree its a tough situation and if I were an employer, would I have a little bit of unease perhaps hiring convicted felons? Probably, but it would depend upon the severity of the offense and , more than anything, the character of the individual applying. Im a big redemption guy --maybe its naive, idk, but id like to think that our society provides a second chance for all. The most difficult for me, however, would be situations involving convicted murderers, child predators and rapists. Individuals like that I have a hard time feeling sympathy for and I honestly wouldnt know what to do with them . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Murderers i think i could get over,but child molesters and rapists are out of luck with me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DirtTime 5666 Posted Sunday at 01:35 PM Share Posted Sunday at 01:35 PM Well, there's a few options here.... Keep a bucket next to your chair. Put a TV in your bathroom. Don't watch the jackass on TV. Easy fix for that illness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
