}If you are convicted of a F&W crime and it had nothing to do with KS, how are you any better or allowed to post on KS classfieds than those who are mentioned alongside KS in an article?
you are not. you are just not banned from ks
You were still convicted correct?
yes. murder, wildlife, drugs. By your reasoning JeffB should ban everybody who has a pot bust on their record.
It is Jeff's site, but it's that policy, hyprocracy, and type of thinking that makes absolutely no sense at all and is actually discriminitory.
I doubt your claim of discrimination would stand up to legal scrutiny.
Personally, I don't see the hypocrisy. Are you suggesting that if someone involved you in a criminal investigation, were convicted, did their time, and paid their dues; that you would accept an apology and then do biz with them again?
That is silly at best. This falls into the fool me once category. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
Would you put yourself in a position to be fooled a second time? Maybe then you get both get convicted!
I would like to think that those who have been convicted years ago are now law biding (sic) people who have paid their dues to the govt and society and learned their lesson.
Look at this definition of recidivism. Then google "recidivism rate".
Why ban some for life, but not others? Still...makes ZERO sense. Might to you, but I can assure you that 9 out of 10 don't think so.
This statement makes true the statistic that 98% of all statistics are made up. I am sure you did a survey.
See both kingsnake's published policy and statements I make above.
ks.com's published policy seems quite clear. Get ks.com involved in a criminal investigation and you are banned. Seems clear cut and across the board. Without confusion. The policies do not seem to judge people for actions elsewhere. Thus, it is not about being a criminal. It is about involving kingsnake.com in a criminal investigation. If you fail to see this distinction it is because you do not wish to see it.
It seems to me kingsnake.com is rightly trying to protect their own good name and by association that of our entire industry. For that I thank them.
Lastly, doesn't a business have the right to refuse service to anybody they choose? No reason necessary.
SR - What were you busted for?
