The problem is that we ahve so many other issues regarding ex-offenders that yoru idea is definitely way out in left field at the moment. <br /><br />Concentrate on the short distance problems first, then look at issues on the more obust side of thought. <br /><br />And to make a point of your statement "How do you think your wife or girl friend looks at you having to answer to another man?", if a man values himself by the outside influences that affect him, he has many other issues besides answering to a parole officer. Strength and Fortitude come from within, not from what people say about you. A man is only a man when he comes to terms with its meaning.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-29388488139998466482010-07-15T20:07:12.122-05:002010-07-15T20:07:12.122-05:00"How do you think your wife or girl friend lo..."How do you think your wife or girl friend looks at you having to answer to another man?

I mean really, every ex-con in TX should be on board with this. I talking about people getting your life back, being your own man, calling your own shots, not having to answer to another man, i.e., parole officer. How do you think your wife or girl friend looks at you having to answer to another man? Think about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-5394756277697467062010-07-15T14:28:47.248-05:002010-07-15T14:28:47.248-05:001:48..In a word, "no."1:48..In a word, "no."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-45513410719310851062010-07-15T13:59:47.120-05:002010-07-15T13:59:47.120-05:00They put a TON of work on this.

There is no rational reason, certainly no rehabilitive reason to keep people over 50 on parole. Amnesty is the ultimate Re-Entry program for these people. If there is a TX politician out there listening, I would ask that you please just take a look at this idea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-34013169498048762642010-07-14T17:01:21.801-05:002010-07-14T17:01:21.801-05:00well, looks like they'll be re-printing that t...well, looks like they'll be re-printing that thing soon.
