I know that, but in general it irks me that we brand people for life for often very very small mistakes. Sometimes for almost nothing---this is OT, but why I feel this way.

My mom nearly got taken out by an idiot book keeper. My moms bank changed one of her draft #'s on her check and sent out a notice, but it did not get to my mom till after she had written a few more checks. She immediately tried to contact everywhere she had been to get them a good check. One person did not return her calls and would not keep appoints my mom made through staff and was never at her place of work when she said she would be. After my mom chased her around for 3 months trying to give her company $$ she had the nerve to try and charge my mom criminally for writing bad checks. It went to court and my mom won, the other lady was there literally in pajamas. That is how serious she took the situation. That would have been a felony, and it would have had nothing to do with anything but a terrible bookkeeper. Now lets say it was with someone less experienced at documenting her trying to chase this woman down, they would have been tagged. And for what--a lousy employee doing a lousy job.

Rant done

Anyway. I know it is illegal to own a firearm if you have a felony, but somehow I find it hard to swallow that a homeowner was taken in and the burglar got away (And can now come back with no fear whatsoever!).

I'll get out the pitchforks if he was guilty of anything less than murder 1! It was his house...the sorry piece of entrails that broke into it was not there for sweet tea. IMHO your home is your castle, people invade it at their own risk.
