Hi, I'm Dave... and being ex-offender is a stigma I have to carry for the rest of my life (I have to be honest) but I guess we have to look at things from another perspective... I mean, I didn't appreciate my family until I was convicted in a court of law... they stood by me and hang in there with me (albeit in the free outside world. Yes, we call the prison a world apart from the real world) and I promised them that I'll never be so stupid again.
This is how it is folks. If true rehabilitation efforts were made, there would be no reason to lock up anyone for more than 5 years. It's about rehab, not vengeance. It could be your loved one that makes a mistake. Think about it.
What did you do to wind up in prison? Yikes.
