Eh. That itself is a slippery issue, especially for the wrongfully convicted. Not to mention, if they do their time, they should no longer be punished.

There’s only a very small minority of truly heinous humans who should be locked away forever.

I genuinely don’t care. If I have the choice between felon and a not felon, I’ll go with the not felon every day. It’s the easiest choice I’ll make in my life.

If they didn’t want to deal with the issues caused by being a felon, they should not have committed felonies. Simple as.

Okay, yeah, fuck off with your bullshit.

Our system is stupid, and you can’t recognize that, because you’re probably equally so.

Until you understand that our justice system is beyond flawed and systemically problematic, your opinion should be considered less than dirt.

Vast majority of people manage to not become felons by not committing felonies

Out of lm the people who are convicted felons, I don’t think I’m wrong thinking those who are wrongly convicted are an insignificant minority

Sucks to be them, but I won’t try my luck on the absolute minimal off chance they weren’t a criminal.

If you don’t want to deal with the baggage that comes with being a felon, don’t commit felonies. It’s not hard, plenty of people manage to do it.

I filter potential tenants and it’s served me well. I never had to do huge repairs or anything on any of my rentals.

Most of my idealistic buddies who believe they operate a charity can’t say the same.
