Serving your time in jail is sufficient to pay for your crimes, IMO. Unless there is a good reason, ie public interest as the law states, we shouldn't rubberstamp all criminals as evil (or all violent criminals).
Part of getting them back into society is rehabilitation which means we give them another chance to integrate and follow the law.
- chunkyslink 9y agoI just think that a violent crime is not excusable in any circumstance. Yes they have served their time, but if someone is capable of violence even once, it should not be possible to hide this information.
