I agree. Even worse is when a teen rapist gets a lighter sentence than Jeff Skilling.03Lightningrocks wrote:There is a huge difference in "violent" and "non-violent" crime. It is wrong that a "non-violent" crime garners the same penalty as a "violent crime" when it comes to the loss of ones constitutional rights.

No perpetrators were ever caught and none of my family's irreplaceable treasures were recovered. If I could punish the thieves I assure you they would receive far worse than a spot on their records. It is unacceptable to see your family scared to live in their own home and I hope that none of you ever have to experience that type of event.
The young widow in Oklahoma who shot and killed the home invader recently is a perfect example. In a follow up interview she says she doesn't feel safe in her own home now, worrying when the next person will kick down her door in the middle of the night.

Re: CHL's and felony charges?
If it's a victimless crime (MIP, UCW, consensual gambling, consensual sex) then it should get automatically expunged after the same amount of time a bankruptcy gets wiped from a credit report. After all, bankruptcy harms the creditors, so if that slate gets wiped clean, then victimless crimes should be wiped clean too.
