In the past, people didn't need criminal checks unless they worked for a bank or the police. This is just more government licking corporate ass. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12582603 so you have no problem being forced to let a convicted felon babysit your kids at daycare? hahahaa idiot That canadian should be forced to have pedos and rapists live in his house.

Convictions sure they are relevant to employment in certain positions, but not for a factory worker or a laborer they are not. |

Hire a couple of child molesters to work in WH maintenance Hire peso files in Secret Service The truth of the matter is we do not have a president.... He cannot prove his eligibility So, if arrested because of any of his laws, who has the Uthority to make those laws? All should be null and void.

^WatchMan^ User ID: 33893138 United States 02/17/2013 12:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I do believe people can change and that there are some decent people that just f'd up and are trying hard to get it together. But employers do background checks to weed out felons because of LAWYERS. How can an employer know if they have the real deal type of person who is really trying to live straight and when they have the person who will rape an employee or slap a customer or rob them blind? They can't know this, so for liability issues alone, they have to weed them out. If there is an incident and the victim/s sue and it is found that the guy knowingly hired a felon and put everyone at risk, his business will be destroyed by the damages he will have to pay out. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31907650 I mean, what are business owners to do? They're fucked either way. Which, I'm guessing, is the goal. If it's impossible to do business due to the never-ending catch-22 rules/regs, you won't have private-owned businesses. this admistrstions one goal is to takedown the US by any and all means |

That's why our species will leach itself to death. Quoting: krosty Humanitarian principles? LOL... FORCING people to take in convicted criminals into their places of business is "humanitarian"?? I suppose that you think it's "humanitarian" to FUCK OVER business owners, and put them in danger... eh? You'll fuck over the business owners and YOURSELF with more taxes for private prisons because if these "ex-cons" can't get legal work, it is much easier to become a con artist, a drug dealer or a thief on YOUR streets. These snooty business owners everyone portrays and protects here can burn in hell. When those convicts have no means of survival when you turn them down I hope they go steal their food from you. They're gonna do it anyway, why pay them to rob you? |

Krosty, you're one confused individual. When did I say the government has to take care of it? You're must struggle with the idea that the common good must be instituted under a government. With less fools such as yourself workers could hold corporations responsible through workers unions. Thus, as we dismantle the corporations into workers guilds the government is no longer influenced by capitalist ideals we successfully become the government ourselves. But that is way beyond the scope of this thread. Anarchy is coming as you can see the old system of government is being destroyed from within, and we're all choosing sides rather than subvert both sides. They want anarchy and out of that chaos will rise their ability to have the ultimate power over us. Your clinging on to what you have thinking you have the upper hand in the social structure when everything you have is owned by a handful of people. We're all fucked. You don't understand my symbolism or ideologies and they are damn well abhorred here, so I'm not the one who is confused. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 31625978 Panama 02/17/2013 03:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If I were an employer, I would not want to hire anyone who committed a crime that harmed an innocent person. Though I would consider it if the crime was not particularly heinous, occurred many years ago, and reputable people could vouch that the person had truly cleaned up his act. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31625978 And I would not have any problems with hiring someone who got busted for committing a victimless crime. What about someone who got busted because his wife made up that he punched her..etc.. Have a friend in that predicament. Women can get away with anything nowadays. MGOTW. That's where you start. And Panama guy, do you always judge on USA prosecutions? Bad on your part. Women lie lie lie all the time. I'm not a guy, and I'm not a Panamanian. Also, I'm curious to know if your friend did any time in prison for being falsely accused of punching his wife. You say he got busted, but you do not provide any information on whether or not he was convicted. This thread is about ex-cons, not about people who have merely been arrested. |
