A Permanent Scarlet Letter?

[kbkids]

Sixteen years is too long to carry the burden of a horrendous driving record and DUI for a one time incident. Its time for him to be able to have his record exsponged so he can move on and really put it behind him.

Actually, the driving record is completely clean now. That went away at, I believe, 5 years, might have been 7. But regardless, it doesn't show up anymore.

However, the criminal aspect of it remains. Have tried to get record sealed - but as someone else said, it is indeed one of the crimes that cannot be sealed. So, that will stay for life. Honestly, it hasn't made a big deal in the job positions that have been applied for, just revealed it, they looked at the date, and said that recommendations far outweighed that one negative.

It's just something that has to get drug up every fall when the new school year begins as new volunteer applications have to be filled out every year.

Here in Ohio they are considering this by making sexual offenders have pink license plates on all cars that they own.

PINK??!!! I LIKE PINK. Can't they pick another color?

Oh, the Mary Kay folks are not going to like this!

That won't help. Stamp something on their forehead! Actually I have very strong feelings about this subject and feel that other things should be done to them - but I doubt they are DIS appropriate.
