Let's not talk about who dumped guns and drugs into our environment in the first place for those guys with criminal backgrounds you mentioned earlier...You seem like a smart guy....figure it out...You don't have the slightest clue how easy it was for me to be one of those guys....Instead, I've worked with guys who have "criminal backgrounds"  since society is  "less likely"  to give second chances to a "certain group of people."
