i"m a born american never left the states 36 yrs,
being that i have a felony, and applying myself to many programs, jobs, & so on, you name it, and no progress,
They the people and the goverment really discriminate against a person with a criminal back round, They saying even if you change your life we want you to stay a criminal.
If you look at the crimerate of 2009 you will see a large percent of people have criminal back round. i wonder how they get jobs?
criminals dont want to hire another criminal cause thats all who have jobs these days.
Its sad when a resturant dont even want to hire you. foreigners came here and killed americans,american dream
Today i had a dis agreement wiyh a foreigner,because he said he dont like america and so on.i have my triditions and things it allmost turned ugly but i let go fo it because i know i would have lost in court.not because of my record only because i have one.
Is it worth it for me to continue my studies in school to persue my dreams to just join the army or just watch america let evrybody in our back yard and kick us out. where isn our defense?
