Convicted #Jan6 #felons are backtracking their guilty pleas and trying to have them removed from their records. They have even raised $4+M to run for office, claiming they've been political prisoners.

A local defense attorney stopped by the #DemingHeadlight to chew the fat. He asked me why I write about "human trafficking charges" when the statute refers to alien smuggling.

Because I don't like calling people #aliens and avoid doing so.

I don't like referring to people as "#felons," either. I've committed misdemeanors, yet I'm not labeled a "misdemeanant" for life.

In #journalism, the way we write about these things makes an enormous difference, and people who hold power notice.

"Felons are typically stripped of the very rights supposedly won in the civil rights movement, including the right to vote, the right to serve on juries, and the right to be free of legal discrimination in employment, housing, access to education, and public benefits. They're relegated to a permanent undercaste."

Restoring #VotingRights to #felons is one of the rare election changes drawing bipartisan support. In #Nebraska, former felons are hoping the legislature lifts a requirement for them to wait two years before having their rights restored.

Fear not #felons. There is still hope. #Finance is the career path to go if you have a record. Mainly on the idea that Wall Street thinks they are smarter than you or something. The saying goes, Bears (pessimists) make money, Bulls (optimists) make money, and Pigs (Dumbasses) get slaughtered.

I have seen options traders without degrees or or FINRA certifications beat the market, and Wall Street is generally soft on those who committed crimes before and just want to be reborn.

“We should not continue to perpetually punish individuals,” Governor Tim Wall says in advance of signing a law giving 50,000 non-incarcerated #felons the #righttovote in #Minnesota.

💥🔥BREAKING: The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals voted to allow domestic abusers to have access to firearms, even if they have a restraining order filed against them. This is just insane! So are they next gonna allow felons to have firearms? Republicans are hell bent on getting as many people as possible shooting each other. #guns #guncontrol #republicans #democrats #politics #NRA #domesticviolence #felons #domesticabuse #courtofappeals

The subpoenas start flying at me for no reason whatsoever the second my father announced that he's running as a Republican. You see how we were tortured and abused...We better get a grip on it otherwise we're not going to have a democracy — Eric Trump #quote #TrumpCrimeFamily #trumporganization #felons

Voter intimidation? For sure.

Can #felons become #cybersecurity professionals? I’ve heard both yes and no so I’m gauging opinions or personal experiences. Any feedback is appreciated ❤️

Fellow #felons: What's the weirdest/most unexpected collateral consequence you've encountered?

I think the not being able to own pepper spray when I lived in NY was unexpected. Some people are surprised by dating app bans & AirBnb restrictions.

Other lesser-known limitations?
