a greater number of African Americans and Hispanics are getting arrested for crimes

Could it be that they commit a greater number of crimes in proportion to their percentage of the general population? Naahh.

For those who have been convicted of a crime...what is the recidivism rate ?

Under the enterprise corruption laws in place, if I were to hire a drug dealer, and they began selling drugs at my establishment without my knowledge, I could open my business to seizure under those statutes.

Is the stigma of being convicted of a crime one the reasons not to commit a crime ?

Depending on the job I would have no problem hiring non violent offenders but it needs to be left up to the employer.

When I was a paint room foreman my crew was almost entirely made up of parolees working out of a halfway house and they were the best crew in the shop.

Liberalism is a mental disorder. That’s the only explanation.

Employers can refuse a person if they smoke, but they can’t refuse a person with a criminal record?

How equal is that?

Recidivists sprung through politically correct treatment from the justice system commit the majority of the gun crimes in our country. But that’s not the script. The script is to go after white, law-abiding sportsmen.

Will the fedgov follow its own rules?

How will the bureaucrats enjoy working alongside pedophiles, rapists, and murderers?

I used to hire ex cons, until I realized the danger that they posed to my other employees.

Employers have a duty to prevent workplace violence. How can this not be a consideration?

Let's see if I can read a little farther between the lines here.

The state wants to force employers to hire convicted criminals, because they need them hired.

For why?

The state plans on a huge increase in convicted criminals in the population and wants them generating tax revenue, rather than sucking it.

Convicted criminals allowed out in society on a state leash are much easier to control than sovereign citizens.

The state has no power over an honest man, (Reference Ayn Rand)

With monetary transfer "crimes", process "crimes", "hate crimes" and gun possession "crimes" et cetera, the state intends to eliminate the "honest man" for the purpose of citizen control.

We can't have him not working and not producing tax revenue, now, can we? Or voting for other than Rats?

Just yank the leash.

Recruiter: Have you ever been convicted of a felony or a misdemeanor? That’s robbery, rape, car theft, that sort of thing.
John Winger: Convicted? No.
Russell Ziskey: Never convicted.
