Sexual Predators (mature topic)
- Thread starter Kakashi on crack

My opinion is my own. Regardless of what I think of Joe, I and my store accordingly, will be under public scrutiny once this Joe guy steps into my store. If from next week Joe starts coming and going from 9 to 5, then whispers will spread throughout the neighbourhood.
Yes, the guy might have been falsely accused (which, I believe, you can appeal for anyway), the guy might not have anything to do with it, there might be other factors, but the bottom line is, I'm an owner of a business that deals with the local community daily. Most people don't look at a person like Joe and think he deserves another chance, most think he didn't stay in prison long enough. The fact of the matter is, hiring Joe will get me and my business attention, most of which I don't want. So, no.

I would, I believe everyone deserves a second chance and one black mark in his history isn't enough to judge him. I would hire him but for a time I would continue to keep an eye on him to see how he acts.
Someone would eventually hire him, and if he is this good I might as well get one of the best I have seen in a while. If his past behavior becomes a problem again, then I shall fire him. It's as simple as that.
Not everyone who was sentenced to a crime is actually guilty. There are an amazing amount of people who have been convicted of Sexual Assault to Murder that haven't actually done it. Even if he was a sexual offender, he could be charged with something such as having sex with a 17 year old two months away from being 18. Now, yes, having this man in your store may hurt business, but I'm sure truly loyal customers are not going to stop going to your store because of that.Bloodastral said:

Wow are you really missing my point so utterly completely?Sindaine said:
Yes, he's being a danger to children either way, but only in one way could you hiring him have even the slightest effect. The other (far more likely) way, all you're doing is funding a child predator.
Lol, economy flights are pretty cheap and, if you have a goal in mind, it's pretty easy to have enough self control to save most of your money for the sake of the goal.
You can hope all you want. You're still giving money to someone who might well use it to get into a position to rape a child.Sindaine said:
That's one hell of a weird assumption. His goals and ideals are obviously messed up, but why does that automatically mean he can't make rational decisions in his attempt to fulfil those goals?
Certainly, why would I care? Of course the concern is: will he break his parole. That's not my problem, that's his.
Of course people will say: He's a paedophile, he doesn't deserve work. Well I say: shut the fuck up. Anyone deserves to contribute to society, and the man is well experienced. So as long as he doesn't re-offend, there is no big deal. Besides, as far as I know, he had sex with an 18 year old. It's stupid and illegal, but even if it was a 12 year old, that doesn't mean he's going to assault any kids that come into the store. End your presumptions, people. Also, he's not in sales, but in the back room doing repairs. So interaction with the public would be minimal.
In summary, here's my view on paedophilia: I'm fine if you're a paedophile. Just don't actually assault any kids. This is the same reason I'm for animated child porn. You know, the kind where a child was never actually abused at any point in it's production.

Not a chance in hell. Let's switch it up and say that he applied for a job as the local elementary school janitor...anybody still want to hire him? Just because he's well qualified doesn't mean it's a good idea.
On top of it just being generally creepy and weird, there is an entire liability issue of me actually allowing him to work at my place of business. If anything ever happened there surrounding him, I would probably be held partially responsible (even if not legally, still publicly).

have to agree, unfourtunatelly.-Samurai- said:
although I am bad at saying no. and logic actually dictates hiring him.
that is, if I am looking for additional personell.
Also: no visits at customers until I can be sure he wont f*ck around (in both ways
)
Actually, many seven year olds actually do have such maturity. Hell, I know a 5 year old with more maturity than one of my 35 year old friends. Yes, he indeed needs to stop making dick jokes.JoJoDeathunter said:
I personally cannot blame you, as I would probably do similar under the same circumstances. Though, it would involve just decking him/her so hard it would shatter their jaw then CQCing them to the ground. Or ripping their testicles/ovaries out through their mouth. Whichever seems more viable at the time.
OT: But, we don't know if it is actual child abuse or "she's turning 18 in 5 minutes! Book him". Though, if it was a genuine case of molestation then... once again, I'm not going to like the guy but, if the victim forgives, I forget.
Though, considering who I am, I am somewhat naturally inclined by my 24/7 paternal instinct to hate them a bit more then everyone else for longer. And that will be the case. S/He just better not do it again, because then comes The Void the rip them to shreds.
I wouldn't hire him unless he explained himself. If it was him having sex with a 17 year old and her daddy got mad, yeah I would. If he got a 15 year old drunk, no I wouldn't. If he raped a child I would beat him out of my store. If he refuses to say then he doesn't get the job.
