Im just curious for what reason so many restrictions are put on felons released back into society. If you have been punished and rehabiliated, shouldnt you be treated the same as before? If you cant be trusted with your rights then why be released into the general population?

Maybe because they have a track record of abusing their freedoms? In general Felonies are violent crimes.

Two entirely different things, but I do agree we should be handling illegals and the border defense much better.

Is one felony a track record? And btw something as 'minor' as being with some guys while they, unknowingly to you, commit a robbery can land you a felony charge. And some of the things taken away from you make it almost pointless to be released.

do you immediately trust people that have broken your trust? lets say your significant other cheated on you, are you going to immediately trust them when they say they wont do it again? it is the same thing when people commit crimes and are convicted of them. they have broken the public trust, and they have to regain that trust. part of regaining that trust is to deal with the consequences of breaking the laws we live by.

Do you really believe that? A felony will ruin your life. Most felons would do more time for a clean record.
Not really, most just don't want to be in prison.
The real problem is what is considered a felony now a days.
