Just so I'm clear, is the question now whether we would date someone who had been charged and convicted of assault? :unsure:
 
And then......................... Grey totally kicked the **** out of the Red Rider and completely took over. Ha! Ha!
The SILVER actually started kicking *** when I was 21. But I've been dying my hair since I was like 15, so it's not like it matters. :p

I'm definitely going back to red soon, though.
 
Okay okay, men men men.... I have a question....

Would you date a woman with... a criminal record? Dun dun dunnnnn
Been there done that. Technically, I too once had a criminal conviction, now spent. Tax evasion is how it appears on old CRBs. Yet the offence, wrong tax disc in my car - both of them had the one belonging to the other. We had identical cars. I got stopped.

Anyway, it all depends on what the crime is, where, when, etc. It's not uncommon for people of my age and generation, to have something. Often too, when we're younger, people do accept a warning without defending themselves in court, without realising that they now have a criminal record, to which repercussions can occur much later in life.
 
When I inherited my ex wife's dads vinyl he had a copy of agadoo by Black Lace, now that's a proper criminal record! I don't think they can convict his kid for it in all honesty though.
 
Okay okay... wait... let me paint a picture...

One mild morning, the lady in question... she went to a store, running a quick errand for her parents, she was about... 18 at this point. On her way there she was surrounded by another girl and all her friends who have been misinformed about some gossip she was supposedly spreading... The taunts got louder and louder and in the confusion the lady in question pushed the main girl into the road, towards the on coming traffic. She was charged with assault, as the girl was never hit by a vehicle but nearly was and stumbled and broke her leg in two places.

The lady in question confessed this to you, this horrific mistake that happened years ago, and how remorseful she was.

Could you be with her?...

Yeah, no worries. Although, I would have to teach her how to properly hurt people. 🤐

Meh. I have before. It depends on the crime, the severity of it, and how long it's been.
I broke up with my ex and won't go back to her, because she has no desire to stop using certain drugs.
As a result of her drug abuse, she's currently serving a lengthy sentence for stealing 3 cars while she was high, to be able to keep affording her drugs.
Of course, when they arrested her, she physically resisted and fought back, injuring a couple of the officers. Hence, the lengthy sentence.
She got out on parole with good behavior once, only to skip out on probation and leave town, so now she's back in again without possibility of parole.
I haven't talked to her, I stopped talking to her when she decided to start ******* her life up and stopped listening to me trying to guide her to a better life.
So I'm very well aware that addicts can become high profile thieves to get their fixes, I've no interest in that.

But if it's something bogus like petit retail theft from like 6 years ago or a DUI, or busted for cannabis or mushrooms, then generally speaking I don't really give a **** provided she's gotten her life back in order since.

--I should clarify, in America, getting arrested can very quickly, very easily completely destroy your life. It makes it significantly harder to get a job, or do basically anything that a functional adult would be able to do. Records here, depending upon the state you live in, are sometimes publicly accessible, and employers and landlords will both run background checks wherein your arrest record will come up if it isn't publicly accessible and you can be denied a job or a lease based upon your criminal past. You can get your record expunged, but there's a process to that, and with the rise of the internet if you're in a state where your arrest record is public access, private companies will copy your arrest record information over so even though you've gotten it legally expunged, these private companies will charge you a crapload of money to have it removed from their public website listings as well.

Actually, people that get arrested here have it pretty damn hard, I've known a handful of people with criminal records for different things. MOST of it is just drug related, tbh, some though are what get called "career criminals," or repeat offenders who've been arrested so much that they can't make a living to survive with regular jobs so they make a living through illegal activities instead. --Actually, I'm related to one such person, he's out of prison, but he's not allowed to leave the state he's in via probation for another couple of years. I don't think he's coming back at all though, he's sober now and met a girl up there, his life is better now and he's happier up there with her than he would be down here with his family.

There's a stigmatization about criminals that's unfortunate. A lot of the time, they're not bad people, they're troubled people who made bad mistakes. While it is true that there's some that just don't ever want to stop because it's their lifestyle choice, it's also true that a lot of people really only just **** up hard that one time and straighten themselves out thereafter purely because of how much of a pain in the *** it is just to get your life back on track again after. I can damn sure speak to their work ethic in the workforce, I've worked with a lot of them and some of those people are the most dedicated workers there are because they're trying to fix their lives.

Probably not. I would need someone with more street smarts. NEVER confess to anything even if they have you on camera. Just keep saying it wasn't you. No matter what actually happened, she tried to push the lady in question, she got off balance, and feel into the street on her own accord.

However, because people lie, we can't be sure that the lady in question didn't actually cut off a man's ***** for looking at another woman and then got charged with assault due to that. So, it's probably best to stay away from the lady in question just to be safe. I like my *****. I want it to stay permanently attached. ;)

Huh? That's it?! You should have gone full Carrie on that those mean girls, telekinesis and all...
I don't see any problem being with her since she is remorseful but I might be a bit scared of her to be honest
eh, wait this question is for the men only right? I shouldn't answer this 😆

Lool, Ma Baker, I mean...
Let's talk about this, I have Cat nip... yeah lot's of it...
Let's make a deal?

You know I think I'd be too scared to be with a guy with an assault record, it sounds super judgemental, but I know if he was to ever put his hands on me, people would blame me for being with a man with a criminal record, you know? ...

and hmm..

I mean I wish they had a both gender section! A gender and species neutral question section. 😇

This story isn't a big deal by itself, but I would prefer to know about it before becoming serious with the person rather than a few years after. I can imagine waking up one morning and she says "Yeah, I still have that assault charge on my record." And me saying "what?!?" And her saying "Oh! Didn't I ever tell you about that?" I would instantly wonder what else I didn't know.

The worst things I've ever had on my record are speeding tickets and those rolled off years ago. From a criminal justice perspective, I'm extremely boring.
