Maybe we should have a parade for those getting out of prison.

By committing felonies, they gave up all these rights. Yes everyne makes mistakes, but what about the kids that will never grow up because of a mistake to drink a few too many and drive? What about the family that has a mom that lives in fear every day because of a “mistake” made by a man that attacked her? What about the kids that were abused by someone else’s mistake? Yes, some people deserve a second chance, but not every felon. Either this story falls flat on it’s face due to lack of information or the felons are starting to run the system.

I’m all for this type of thing as long as it’s for NON VIOLENT offenders.

Usually 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, etc etc chances are given even before they enter prison. And a majority of prisoners dont serve the full term anyways -”good behavior” and all. Theres your second chance – again.

If criminals could just behave themselves and make intelligent decisions with their lives like the rest of us, they wouldnt have to worry about their 20th – something second chances.

some felons DO deserve a clean start, i’m talking about the guy that forked up ONCE early in his life, as most of us do…..if he has been clean for over say 10 years , he should be cleared………..were not talking about ppl with a multi rap sheet…….

Once their time is served their record should be sealed and they should face no other type of discrimination. It they’re so dangerous they should still be in prison. What chance does someone have for a good job once they’ve been convicted of an auto theft of something similar? They’re sentenced to a certain amount of time in prison, that should be their time served, not continue with punishments for the rest of their life. Once your time is served that should be the end of it. Oh, btw, I’m a conservative with no criminal record.

So if they do not deserve a chance then why even let them out of prison? Closed minded maybe? Because humans don’t make mistakes?

Yeah, and I also have no criminal record.

they do need to give exfelons a second chance. they are people just like us
